BDP/FF/G is an extrafine single inhaler triple therapy available in two dosage strengths: * Medium strength (MS) containing 100 µg of beclomethasone dipropionate, 6 µg of formoterol fumarate dihydrate and 10 µg of glycopyrronium (as 12.5 µg glycopyrronium bromide); * High strength (HS) containing 200 µg of beclomethasone dipropionate, 6 µg of formoterol fumarate dihydrate and 10 µg of glycopyrronium (as 12.5 µg glycopyrronium bromide).

Patient demographics
Time frame: 12 months
Assessment of asthma control using Asthma Control Test (ACT)
Change from baseline in ACT scores. The ACT is a self-report questionnaire with scores ranging from 5-25 (higher is better). Scores of 20-25 are classified as well-controlled; 16-19 as not well-controlled; and 5-15 as very poorly controlled asthma. The minimum clinically important difference is considered to be 3 point.
Time frame: 12 months
Assessment of quality of life using Mini Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (Mini AQLQ)
Change from baseline in MiniAQLQ scores. The MiniAQLQ is a disease specific questionnaire that consists of 15 asthma-related questions. Participants respond to each question on a 7-point scale (1=severe impairment, 7=no impairment), where higher scores indicated better quality of life. A change in the score greater than 0.5 can be considered clinically important.
Time frame: 12 months
Assessment of adherence to treatment using 12-item Test of Adherence to Inhalers (TAI-12)
Change from baseline in TAI-12 score. The 12-item TAI comprises a patient domain (10 items) and a healthcare professional domain (2 items). Each item ranges from 1 (lowest adherence) to 5 (highest adherence) points. The patient domain score ranges from 10 to 50. Adherence is rated as good (score = 50), intermediate (score = 46-49).
