Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Main Objective: To determine the effect of AER 002 on mucociliary clearance rate of a radiolabeled particle from the lungs of patients with COPD after 5 days of treatment with AER 002 (30 mg bid nebulized);Secondary Objective: To determine the effects of AER 002 on symptoms (cough, breathlessness, sputum production, oxygen use and general feeling), sputum production while in the clinic, spirometry (FEV1, FVC, PEF, small airways resistance as measured by impedance osillometry). ;Primary end point(s): Effects of AER 002 on mucociliary clearance in patients with COPD.
