Effect of Extra- Fine Versus Coarse-Particle Inhaled Corticosteroids (ICS) on Ventilation Heterogeneity in Children With Poorly Controlled Asthma

Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The primary objective of the study is to show that ventilation heterogeneity identified by hyperpolarized helium-3 lung MRI is prevalent children with poorly controlled asthma despite guidelines-based treatment with ICS. The secondary objective is to demonstrate whether or not eight weeks of treatment with extra-fine particle ICS (HFA-BDP) improves ventilation heterogeneity compared to treatment with a coarse particle ICS (fluticasone HFA or dry powder).
