A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of QMF149 (Indacaterol Acetate/Mometasone Furoate) Versus Budesonide in Children From 6 to Less Than 12 Years of Age With Asthma
brief summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the superiority in terms of efficacy and evaluate the safety of QMF149 (indacaterol (acetate) / mometasone (furoate)) compared to budesonide in children from 6 to less than 12 years of age with asthma. * The study duration will be up to 37 weeks including an investigational treatment duration of 12 weeks and a comparator treatment duration of 12 weeks. * The visit frequency will be 3 weeks for screening, run-in and wash-out period, 6 weeks interval for visits during each treatment period, 30 days for safety follow-up.
detailed description
This is a double-blind, randomized, active controlled, 2 period, 2 treatment (12 weeks duration each) cross-over multi-center study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of indacaterol (acetate)/ mometasone (furoate) compared to budesonide in terms of superiority in children from 6 to less than 12 years of age with asthma with FEV1 ≥50% of the predicted normal value for the participant.
The study duration of 37 weeks includes:
* a screening period of up to 3 weeks * a run-in period of 3 weeks (run-in medication: Fluticasone propionate 50μg bid) * a first treatment period of 12 weeks (either with QMF149 75/40μg o.d or budesonide 200 μg o.d via Breezhaler) * a wash out period of 3 weeks (wash-out medication: Fluticasone propionate 50μg bid) * a second treatment period of 12 weeks (cross over of the 2 treatment groups with either QMF149 75/40μg o.d or budesonide 200 μg o.d via Breezhaler) * a safety follow-up period of 4 weeks during which the patient will be back on standard of care treatment as appropriate At the completion of the follow-up period, patient's safety information as well as survival status will be collected.
