研究概览
简要总结
This study seeks to confirm previous findings and aims to demonstrate that triple ICS/LAMA/LABA therapy with BGF MDI 320/14.4/9.6 µg (Breztri/Trixeo) will improve cardiopulmonary outcomes relative to LAMA/LABA therapy with GFF MDI 14.4/9.6 µg (Bevespi) in a population with COPD and high cardiopulmonary risk. The study’s primary composite endpoint is time to first severe cardiac or COPD event. The composite primary endpoint comprises time to the first HF acute healthcare visit/hospitalization, MI hospitalization, severe COPD exacerbation, or cardiopulmonary death.
Evaluating a combined cardiopulmonary outcome assessing key clinical deteriorations that captures mortality and hospitalization (ie, cardiac/COPD hospitalization and cardiopulmonary death) is important in patients with COPD and elevated cardiac risk given cardiopulmonary outcomes are fundamental features of the disease. AstraZeneca considers this of key importance to prescribers treating both pulmonary and cardiac diseases. The data from the clinical question at hand, whether BGF MDI reduces severe cardiopulmonary outcomes in a population not on ICS therapy, will be novel with the potential to change clinical practice
