3. Patients must be current or ex-smokers with a smoking history of more than 10 pack years:

Exclusion Criteria

1. Patients with a significant disease other than COPD; a significant disease is defined as

because of participation in the study, (ii) influence the results of the study, or (iii)

cause concern regarding the patientâ??s ability to participate in the study

2. Patients with clinically relevant abnormal baseline haematology, blood chemistry, or

urinalysis; all patients with an SGOT >x2 ULN, SGPT >x2 ULN, bilirubin >x2 ULN

or creatinine >x2 ULN will be excluded regardless of clinical condition (a repeat

laboratory evaluation will not be conducted in these patients)

3. Patients with a history of asthma. For patients with allergic rhinitis or atopy, source

documentation is required to verify that the patient does not have asthma. If a patient

has a total blood eosinophil count >=ï? 600/mm3, source documentation is required to

verify that the increased eosinophil count is related to a non-asthmatic condition.

4. Patients with any of the following conditions:

- a diagnosis of thyrotoxicosis (due to the known class side effect profile of

Ã?2-agonists)

- a diagnosis of paroxysmal tachycardia ( >100 beats per minute) (due to the

known class side effect profile of Ã?2-agonists)

5. Patients with any of the following conditions:

- a history of myocardial infarction within 1 year of screening visit (Visit 1)

and in the investigatorâ??s opinion will be unable to abstain from the use of oxygen

therapy during clinic visits

9. Patients who have completed a pulmonary rehabilitation program in the six weeks

prior to the screening visit (Visit 1) or patients who are currently in a pulmonary

rehabilitation program

10. Patients who have taken an investigational drug within one month or six half lives

(whichever is greater) prior to screening visit (Visit 1)
