Purpose
This study will include the patients who are Japanese children with bronchial asthma aged 5 years to 15 years old and have completed the Phase III study (Study code: D5254C00769) at about 29 centres. To investigate the safety of budesonide Turbuhaler® with a daily dose of 100 µg to 800 µg for 54 weeks treatment including the prior 6 weeks Phase III study (Study D5254C00769, NCT00504062) as compared with conventional therapy in Japanese children with bronchial asthma in need of inhaled glucocorticosteroid treatment.

| Official Title: | An Open-label, Multi-center, Long Term Study to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of Budesonide Turbuhaler® Treatment for 48 Weeks (Following 6 Weeks Phase III Study) in Japanese Children With Bronchial Asthma Aged 5 Years to 15 Years Old |
- Number of Patients With Adverse Events (AEs). [ Time Frame: 54 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]AEs were defined as undesirable medical conditions or deteriorations of a pre-existing medical condition following/during exposure. All Serious AEs, AEs leading to withdrawal, Other relevant AE were recorded.
- Number of Patients With Abnormal Clinical Laboratory Test Values. [ Time Frame: 54 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Analysis of haematological, clinical chemistry and urynalysis variables were performed.
Haematology variables: erythrocytes, haemoglobin, haematocrit, leucocyte count, leucocyte different count (neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, lymphocytes, monocytes), platelet count.
Clinical chemistry measurements: aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), total bilirubin, albumin, creatinine,sodium, potassium, total protein, blood urea nitrogen.
Urinalysis variables: protein, glucose, urobilinogen, occult.
- Number of Patients With Abnormal Vital Sign Values for the Following Variables: Blood Pressure (Sitting) and Pulse Rate (Sitting), as Judged by the Investigator [ Time Frame: 54 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Number of Patients With Abnormal Plasma Cortisol Values. [ Time Frame: 54 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Cut-off value of cortisol is defined as 4 mcg/dL.
- Height [ Time Frame: Baseline and 54 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Height, change from baseline calculated as (height at last visit - height at randomization)
- Weight [ Time Frame: Baseline and 54 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Weight, change from baseline calculated as (weight at last visit - weight at randomization)
- Morning Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF) Percentage of Predicted Normal [ Time Frame: 54 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Change in PEF percent of predicted normal calculated as (PEF percent predicted normal at last visit - PEF percent predicted normal at randomization).
- Change From Baseline of Respiratory Condition at Asthma Attacks (Daytime) [ Time Frame: Baseline and 54 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Change in respiratory condition at asthma attacks (daytime) from baseline to last visit. Scale: 0 - 4.
0 = None. 1 = Mild. 2 = Moderate. 3= Severe. 4 = Respiratory insufficiency
- Change From Baseline of Respiratory Condition at Asthma Attacks (Nighttime) [ Time Frame: Baseline and 54 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Change in respiratory condition at asthma attacks (nighttime) from baseline calculated as (respiratory condition at asthma attacks (nighttime) at last visit - respiratory condition at asthma attacks (night-time) at randomization).
Scale: 0 - 4. 0 = None. 1 = Mild. 2 = Moderate. 3= Severe. 4 = Respiratory insufficiency.
- Change From Baseline of Use of Inhaled Short-acting B-2 Agonist (Daytime) [ Time Frame: Baseline and 54 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Change in use of inhaled short-acting B-2 agonist (daytime) from baseline calculated as (use of inhaled short-acting B-2 agonist (daytime) at last visit - use of inhaled short-acting B-2 agonist (daytime) at randomization)
- Change From Baseline of Use of Inhaled Short-acting B-2 Agonist (Night-time) [ Time Frame: Baseline and 54 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Change in use of inhaled short-acting B-2 agonist (night-time) from baseline calculated as (use of inhaled short-acting B-2 agonist (night-time) at last visit - use of inhaled short-acting B-2 agonist (night-time) at randomization)
- Change From Baseline in Disturbance of Daily Activities [ Time Frame: Baseline and 54 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Change in disturbance of daily activities from baseline calculated as (disturbance of daily activities at last visit - disturbance of daily activities at randomization).
Frequency of disturbance of daily activity was assessed using 3- grade scale (normal, almost able, unable).
- Change From Baseline in Disturbance of Night-time Sleep [ Time Frame: Baseline and 54 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Change in disturbance of night-time sleep from baseline calculated as (disturbances of night-time sleep at last visit - disturbances of night-time sleep at randomization).
Frequency of disturbance of night- time sleep was assessed using 3- grade scale (normal, almost able, unable).
- Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second (FEV1) Percentage of Predicted Normal Change From Baseline [ Time Frame: 54 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1) percentage of predicted normal change from baseline calculated as: 100 * (FEV1 at last visit - FEV1 at randomization)/predicted normal FEV1).
