5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The clinical trial is designed to evaluate the non-inferiority of CHF1535 100/6 µg NEXThaler versus CHF1535 100/6 µg pMDI on the onset of relief from methacholine-induced bronchospasm, in terms of pulmonary function (i.e. change in Forced Expiratory Volume in the 1st second, FEV1, from baseline to 5 min after study drug intake) in asthmatic patients.
