Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

• Healthy male and/or female subjects between the ages of 18 and 55 years.

• Body Mass Index (BMI) of 18 to 30.5 kg/m2; and a total body weight >45 kg (99 lbs).

• An informed consent document signed and dated by the subject.

• Subjects who are willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, and other study procedures.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Evidence or history of clinically significant hematological, renal, endocrine, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, hepatic, psychiatric, neurologic, or allergic disease (including drug allergies, but excluding untreated, asymptomatic, seasonal allergies at the time of dosing).

• A positive urine drug screen.

• History of regular alcohol consumption exceeding 14 units/week for females or 21 units/week for males (1 unit = 5 ounces (150 mL) of wine or 12 ounces (360 mL) of beer or 1.5 ounces (45 mL) of hard liquor) within 6 months of screening.

• Treatment with an investigational drug within 30 days or 5 half-lives or as determined by the local requirement, whichever is longer, preceding the first dose of study medication.

• 12-lead ECG demonstrating QTcF >450 msec or a QRS interval >120 msec at screening. If QTcF exceeds 450 msec or QRS exceeds 120 msec, the ECG should be repeated two more times and the average of the three QTcF or QRS values should be used to determine the subject's eligibility.

• Hemoglobin <11.5 g/dL for female subjects or <12.5 g/dL for male subjects.

• Pregnant or nursing females; females of childbearing potential who are unwilling or unable to use an acceptable method of contraception as outlined in this protocol.

• Use of prescription or nonprescription drugs and dietary supplements within 7 days or 5 half lives (whichever is longer) prior to the first dose of study medication. Herbal supplements must be discontinued at least 28 days prior to the first dose of study medication. - Blood donation of approximately 1 pint (500 mL) or more within 56 days prior to dosing.

• Unwilling or unable to comply with the lifestyle guidelines described in this protocol.

• Other severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or investigational product administration or may interfere with the interpretation of study results.

• Evidence or significant history of childhood or adult asthma, or any significant history of wheeze, chronic cough, dyspnea at rest or acute bronchospasm.

• Subjects with abnormal lung function tests at screening, defined as an FEV1 and/or FVC which is <80% of predicted.

• Subjects who are current smokers. Ex-smokers who have given up smoking for <6 months and/or have a smoking pack history of ≥10 pack years.

• Subjects with a lower respiratory tract infection in the 4 weeks prior to dosing.

• History of sensitivity to lactose or sensitivity to the ingredients of Advair®/Seretide™, including subjects with severe milk protein allergy in whom Advair® is contraindicated.

• Subject is the Investigator or a sub-Investigator, research assistant, pharmacist, study coordinator, other staff, or a relative of any study personnel directly involved with the conduct of the study.
