- Improvement in the Severity of Asthma as Measured by Change in the Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ) Score [ Time Frame: Baseline and 85 Days ]The ACQ scores range from 0 to 6 with lower scores reflecting better asthma control. Without loss of generality, as Day 85 minus baseline (Visit 3) so that improvements in asthma control translate to negative change scores.
