Inclusion Criteria:
* Participant must be 12 to 17 years of age (inclusive), at the time of signing the informed consent/assent.
* Participants who have a diagnosis of asthma as defined by the National Institutes of Health \[NIH, 2020\] at least 1 year prior to Visit 0.
* Participants who have required daily Inhaled corticosteroids (ICS)/ Long-Acting Beta2-Agonist (LABA) treatment for at least 12 weeks prior to Visit 0 with no changes to maintenance asthma medications during the 6 weeks immediately prior to Visit 0 (including no changes to a stable total ICS dose of \>250 to \<=500 microgram (mcg)/day fluticasone propionate, or equivalent).
* In the 1 year prior to Visit 1: A documented healthcare contact for acute asthma symptoms; OR A documented temporary change in asthma therapy for acute asthma symptoms, according to a prespecified asthma action plan (or equivalent).
* Participants with inadequately controlled asthma (ACQ-6 score ≥1.5) at Visit 1, despite ICS/LABA maintenance therapy.
* A best pre-bronchodilator FEV1 \>40% to \<=90% of the predicted normal value and a ≥12% increase in FEV1 with albuterol/salbutamol at Visit 1. Predicted values will be based on the European Respiratory Society (ERS) Global Lung Function Initiative.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Chest X-ray documented pneumonia in the 6 weeks prior to Visit 1.
* Any asthma exacerbation requiring a change in maintenance asthma therapy and/or the use of systemic corticosteroids for at least 3 days in the 6 weeks p…
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
