Transport measurements are performed on InAs/GaSb double quantum wells at zero and finite magnetic fields applied parallel and perpendicular to the quantum wells. We investigate a sample in the inverted regime where electrons and holes coexist, and compare it with another sample in the noninverted semiconducting regime. The activated behavior in conjunction with a strong suppression of the resistance peak at the charge neutrality point in a parallelmagnetic field attest to the topological hybridization gap between electron and hole bands in the inverted sample. We observe an unconventional Landau level spectrum with energy gaps modulated by the magnetic field applied perpendicular to the quantum wells. This is caused by a strong spin-orbit interaction provided jointly by the InAs and the GaSb quantum wells.
