SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 30 minutes prior to dosing and at 5 and 15 minutes post-dose

Population: Safety Set

The potential of Treatment HFO to induce bronchospasm was compared with Treatment HFA. The number of participants with bronchospasm events post-dose (5 or 15 minutes post-dose) from baseline (30 minutes pre-dose) for each treatment is presented. An event of bronchospasm is defined as a reduction in FEV1 of \>15% from baseline (i.e. the FEV1 value obtained within 30 minutes prior to study intervention administration) at 5 or 15 minutes post-dose, with associated symptoms of wheezing, shortness of breath, or cough.
