About this trial
The primary objectives of the study are: Part 1: to characterize the potency and variability of dose response on efficacy (Provocative concentration of methacholine causing at least a 20% fall in forced expiratory volume (FEV1) \[PC20\]) of salbutamol administered via MDI with salbutamol HFA-134a or salbutamol HFA-152a in participants with mild asthma. Part 2: to compare the comparative dose response on efficacy (PC20) of salbutamol when administered via MDI with salbutamol HFA-134a or salbutamol HFA-152a in participants with mild asthma.
