Inclusion Criteria
  • Subject has asthma or stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
  • Subject has a diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD) or risk factors for CAD as determined by a current medical diagnosis of at least 2 of the following conditions: Type 2 diabetes, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, current or history of cigarette smoking (minimum 10 pack-years exposure) or obesity Body Mass Index (BMI > 30).
  • Subject must abstain from smoking 3 hours prior and 8 hours post study drug administration.
  • Subject must abstain from any intake of foods and beverages containing a methylated xanthine derivative (i.e. caffeine, theobromine, or methylxanthine) within 12 hours prior to study drug administration through the Follow-Up visit, as these foods may reduce the effects of regadenoson.
  • Subject is able to safely abstain from theophylline for 12 hours prior to the Day 1 visit, as determined by the Investigator
  • Asthma subject's frequency and severity of symptoms have remained unchanged within 30 days prior to study drug administration
  • Asthma subject has FEV1 ≥60% predicted
  • COPD subject has FEV1/FVC < 0.70
Exclusion Criteria
  • Female subject who is pregnant, lactating or of childbearing potential who refuses to use a medically acceptable form of contraception until the Follow-Up visit is complete.
  • Subject started on a course of corticosteroids, steroid combination with long-acting Beta2-agonist (LABA) (oral or inhaled) or anticholinergic, or has undergone a change in dose of such medications ≤ 30 days prior to study drug administration (subject on a stable dose of such medications for > 30 days prior to study drug administration is allowed).
  • Subject started leukotriene antagonists (e.g., montelukast), cromones (e.g., cromolyn sodium) or 5-lipoxygenase antagonists (e.g. zileuton or zyflo) or has undergone a change in dose of medications in these drug classes ≤ 7 days prior to study drug administration (subject on a stable dose of these medications for > 7 days prior to study drug administration is allowed).
  • Subject has a history of second or third degree heart block or sinus node dysfunction unless the subject has a functioning pacemaker.
  • Subject has symptomatic hypotension (temporary and reversible conditions that no longer exist are allowed).
  • Subject is allergic or intolerant to aminophylline.
  • Subject has had a respiratory infection within 2 weeks prior to randomization.
  • Subject has had surgery within 3 months prior to randomization.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Subjects Who Had a >15% Decrease in Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) at the 2-hour Postbaseline Assessment2 Hours post dose

FEV1 data was obtained by spirometry measures.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline to the 2 Hour Post-dose Assessment for Forced Vital Capacity (FVC)Baseline and Hour 2

FVC data was obtained by spirometry measurements.

Change from Baseline is calculated as the Hour 2 measurement minus the Baseline measurement.

Use of Short-acting Bronchodilators for Treatment of Symptoms After Study Drug AdministrationWithin 24 Hours of study drug administration

The data represents the numbers of subjects using short acting bronchodilators at time of selected Adverse Event (AE).

Short acting bronchodilators are defined as medications coded to drugs for obstructive airway disease.

The selected respiratory symptomatic AEs included the following preferred terms: dyspnoea, dyspnoea exertional, obstructive airways disorder, tachypnoea, \& wheezing.

Change From Baseline to the 2 Hour Post-dose Assessment for FEV1 Absolute ValuesBaseline and Hour 2

FEV1 data was obtained by spirometry measurements.

Change from Baseline is calculated as the Hour 2 measurement minus the Baseline measurement.

Change From Baseline to the 2 Hour Post-dose Assessment for FEV1 Percent PredictedBaseline and Hour 2

FEV1 data was obtained by spirometry measurements.

Change from Baseline is calculated as the Hour 2 measurement minus the Baseline measurement.

Change From Baseline to the 2 Hour Post-dose Assessment for FEV1/ FVC RatioBaseline and Hour 2

FEV1 and FVC data was obtained by spirometry measurements.

Change from Baseline is calculated as the Hour 2 measurement minus the Baseline measurement.

Change From Baseline to the 2 Hour Post-dose Assessment for Oxygen Saturation Measured by Pulse OximetryBaseline and Hour 2

Change from Baseline is calculated as the Hour 2 measurement minus the Baseline measurement.

Percentage of Selected Respiratory Adverse EventsWithin 24 Hours of study drug administration

The selected respiratory Adverse Events are dyspnoea, dyspnoea exertional, obstructive airways disorder, tachypnoea and wheezing.

Subjects may have reported more than one type of Adverse Event.
