Bronchial asthma is among the world's most prevalent diseases. Roflumilast is a novel, orally active, selective enzyme inhibitor (phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitor), which has shown effectiveness in the treatment of asthma.

Roflumilast will be administered orally either in the morning or in the evening at one dose level. The study duration consists of a baseline period (1 to 2 weeks) and a treatment period (6 weeks). The study will provide further data on safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of roflumilast.
