1. Patients who have signed an Informed Consent Form before any
assessment is performed.
2. Male and female adults aged = 40 years.
3. Patients with moderate COPD according to the GOLD criteria 2013.
4. Current or ex-smokers who have a smoking history of at least 10 pack
years. (Ten pack years are defined as 20 cigarettes a day for 10 years, or
10 cigarettes a day for 20 years. An ex-smoker is defined as a subject
who has not smoked for = 6 months at Visit 1.)
5. Patients with airflow limitation indicated by a post-bronchodilator
FEV1 =50% and <80% of the predicted normal value and a postbronchodilator
FEV1/FVC <0.7 at Visit 2. Post-bronchodilator refers to
within 10-15 min of inhalation of 400 µg (4x100 µg) of salbutamol.
6. Patients who, at Visit 1, have been for at least 3 months on a stable
dose of one of the following COPD baseline treatments:
- Any SABA monotherapy (such as, but not limited to, salbutamol),
- Any SAMA monotherapy (such as, but not limited to, ipratropium),
- Any SABA and SAMA in free or FDC (such as, but not limited to,
salbutamol/ipratropium),
- Any LABA monotherapy (such as, but not limited to, formoterol,
salmeterol, indacaterol),
- Any LAMA monotherapy (such as, but not limited to, tiotropium,
aclidinium) except glycopyrronium bromide (NVA237),
- Any LABA and ICS in free (ICS such as, but not limited to,
beclomethasone, fluticasone) or FDC (such as, but not limited to,
salmeterol/fluticasone, formoterol/budesonide)
The exact list of therapies (either active ingredients or FDC) will depend
on the available therapies on the market in the participating countries.
7. Patients with an mMRC score =1 at Visit 1.
Are the trial subjects under 18? no
Number of subjects for this age range:
F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes
F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 1341
F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes
F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 3129
1. Patients with conditions contraindicated for treatment with, or having
a history of reactions/ hypersensitivity to any of the following inhaled
drugs or to drugs of similar chemical classes or any component thereof:
• Anti-cholinergic agents
• Long- and short-acting ß2-adrenergic agonists
• Sympathomimetic amines
• Lactose or any of the other excipients of the trial medication.
2. Patients with narrow-angle glaucoma or urinary retention, severe
renal impairment (history of estimated glomerular filtration rate below
30 ml/min/1.73 m2 within 12 months prior to visit 1), including those
with end-stage renal disease requiring dialysis.
3. Patients with active/ clinical history of asthma. If the Investigator
finds clear and compelling evidence that a patient was misdiagnosed
with asthma in the past, then the burden of proof is on the Investigator
to properly document this previous misdiagnosis. This documentation
must include the rationale for this change in diagnosis including
reference to the differential diagnosis that supports this decision.
4. Patients with a history of malignancy of any organ system (other than
localized basal cell carcinoma of the skin), treated or untreated, within
the past 5 years, regardless of whether there is evidence of local
recurrence or metastases.
5. Patients who have a post-bronchodilator FEV1 decrease more than
10% compared to pre-bronchodilator FEV1 result at Visit 2.
6. A documented history of >1 COPD exacerbation requiring treatment
with systemic corticosteroids or antibiotics and/or hospitalization in the
previous 12 months. Patients who have NOT had a COPD exacerbation in
the previous 12 months and develop a COPD exacerbation between
screening (Visit 1) and baseline (Visit 2) will not be eligible but will be
permitted to be re-screened after a minimum of 6 weeks after the
resolution of the COPD exacerbation. (Patients suffering an exacerbation
between Visit 1 and Visit 2 can only be re-screened in case it is the first
one in the previous 12 months). In case this COPD exacerbation has led
to an alteration of the patient COPD treatment, before this patient can be
re-screened 3 months of stable COPD treatment will be required as
described in Inclusion Criterion 6).
7. Patients who, in the judgment of the investigator, have a clinically
relevant laboratory abnormality or a clinically significant condition such
as (but not limited to):
• Unstable ischemic heart disease, left ventricular failure (NYHA Class
III & IV), history of myocardial infarction, arrhythmia (excluding chronic
stable atrial fibrillation). Patients with such events not considered
clinically significant by the investigator may be considered for inclusion
in the study
• Uncontrolled hypo-or hyperthyroidism, hypokalaemia or
hyperadrenergic state
• Any condition which might compromise patient safety or compliance,
interfere with evaluation, or preclude completion of the study
8. History of resting QTc (Fridericia preferred, but Bazett acceptable)
>450 msec (male) or >460 msec (female) within five years before Visit
1.
9. Patients who are treated with glycopyrronium bromide (NVA237) at
visit 1 are not allowed to be included into the trial. Patients on nonselective
beta-blockers. Those patients may enter the study after nonselective
beta-blocker withdrawal during a 7-day washout period.
10. Patients receiving any other prohibited COPD-related medications
specified in Table 5-2 Prohibit
