Participant Flow
The first participant entered the study on 28 January 2010, and the last participant completed the study on 24 October 2011. A total of 328 participants were enrolled at 60 centres in Japan, and 260 participants who fulfilled the randomisation criteria were randomised.
The study starts with an enrolment visit, Visit 1 prior to any other study-related activity. At Visit 2, the lung function will be measured to assess the eligibility of the patients. Subjects who fulfil all eligibility criteria will begin the 2-week run-in period.During the period, the previous treatment will be continued to record the baseline.
