Efficacy and Safety of Two Fixed Dose Combinations of Aclidinium Bromide With Formoterol Fumarate

Registration Number
NCT01078623
Lead Sponsor
AstraZeneca
Brief Summary

The purpose of this multicenter, dose-ranging study is to compare two Fixed-Dose Combinations of aclidinium bromide and formoterol fumarate with placebo, aclidinium bromide and formoterol fumarate, all administered BID in patients with stable, moderate to severe COPD.

Every treatment period is 14-days long and there is a 7-days wash-out period in between them. The trial starts with a run in phase of 10 to 17-days duration and it ends up with a follow up contact 14-days after last treatment dose.

  2. Patient with a clinical diagnosis of stable moderate to severe COPD according to the GOLD classification
  3. Current, or ex-cigarette smoker with a smoking history of at least 10 pack-years.
  4. Patient whose FEV1 at the Screening Visit measured between 10-15 minutes post inhalation of 400 mcg of salbutamol is 30% FEV1 <80% of the predicted normal value (i.e., 100 x Post-salbutamol < FEV1/ Predicted FEV1 must be < 80% and ≥ 30%).

  6. Patient who is eligible and able to participate in the trial and who consent to do so in writing after the purpose and nature of the investigation have been explained.
  7. Patient whose COPD symptoms and FEV1 values at the time of randomisation are stable compared to the Screening Visit, according to the investigator's medical judgment
Exclusion Criteria

  2. Clinically significant respiratory conditions at the time of Inform Consent signature
  3. Hospitalisation due to COPD exacerbation within the previous 3 months.
  4. Signs of a COPD exacerbation or respiratory infection (including the upper respiratory tract) within the previous 6 weeks.
  5. Patient who has a resting systolic blood pressure ≥ 200 mmHg, a resting diastolic blood pressure ≥ 120 mmHg or a resting heart rate ≥ 105 bpm at screening visit.
  6. Clinically significant cardiovascular conditions
  7. Presence of symptomatic prostatic hypertrophy and/or bladder neck obstruction.
  8. Presence of narrow-angle glaucoma.
  9. QTc [calculated according to Bazett's formulae (QTc=QT/RR1/2) above 470 milliseconds in the ECG performed at Screening Visit,

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Normalized Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) Area Under the Curve Over 12 Hours (AUC0-12h) After Morning Study Drug Administration at Day 140 and 30 minutes and 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 hours post-morning dose at Day 14

FEV1 was measured via spirometry: 2 sets of tests prior to morning dose separated by 30 minutes, and then 1 set at 30 minutes, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 hours post-morning dose

FEV1 was measured via spirometry: 2 sets of tests prior to morning dose separated by 30 minutes

Change From Baseline in Morning Peak FEV1 at Day 140 and 30 minutes and 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 hours post-morning dose at Day 14

FEV1 was measured via spirometry: 2 sets of tests prior to morning dose separated by 30 minutes, and then 1 set at 30 minutes, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 hours post-morning dose
