Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Demonstration of the non-inferiority of CHF 1535 pMDI versus Symbicort® Turbohaler® in terms of pulmonary functionAt week 24

Change from baseline in pre-dose morning First Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Effect of CHF 1535 on change from baseline pre-dose morning FEV1At week 4, week 12, week 18 and week 24

FEV1 is the volume of air that can be forced out in one second after taking a deep breath. FEV1 will be measured via spirometer.

Effect of CHF 1535 on chnage from Baseline in pre-dose morning Force Vital Capacity (FVC)At week 4, week 12, week 18 and week 24

FVC is the volume of air expired after a maximum inspiration. FVC will be measured via spirometer.

Effect of CHF 1535 on change from baseline in the St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) total scores and domainsAt week 12, week 24

The SGRQ is a well-established, self-completed tool to measure impact on overall health, daily life and perceived well-being in patients with obstructive airways disease. Score range from 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating more limitations.

Effect of CHF 1535 on the rate of COPD exacerbationsOver 24 weeks of treatment

The number of moderate and severe COPD exacerbations during the treatment period will be collected and analyzed.

* Moderate exacerbations require treatment with systemic corticosteroids and/or antibiotics

* Severe exacerbations require hospitalisation or result in death

Number of subjects with abnormal Electrocardiogram (ECG) findingsAt screening visit and week 24

Twelve-lead ECG measurements will be obtained after the subject laid in a resting position for 10 minutes. ECG will be recorded in triplicate and evaluated at Visit 1 and Visit 6.

Number of subjects with abnormal Haematology parametersAt screening visit and week 24

The following Haematology parameters will be assessed by a central laboratory: Red blood cells count (RBC), white blood cells count (WBC) and differential, total haemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit (Hct), platelets count (PLT).

Effect of CHF 1535 on change from baseline in COPD Assessment Test (CAT)Over 28 weeks

CAT is an easy questionnaire self-administered by patients. It was specifically designed to measure candidate items regarding daily symptoms, activity limitations and other manifestations of the COPD. It will be filled in at all clinical visits.

Assessment of blood pressureOver 28 weeks (from Visit 1 to Visit 6)

Systolic and diastolic blood pressure will be measured at all clinical visits from Visit 1 after 10 minutes in seated resting position.

Number of patients with Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)Over 29 weeks (from Visit 0 to Visit 6)

An AE is "any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical trial subject administered a medicinal product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment".

A SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence or effect that, at any dose may result in death, is life-threatening, requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent disability/incapacity, congenital anomaly/birth defect or any other situation according to medical or scientific judgment.

Number of subjects with abnormal Blood Chemistry parametersAt screening visit and week 24

The following Blood Chemistry parameters will be assessed by a central laboratory: creatinine, BUN, fasting serum glucose, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), Gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (γ-GT), total bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, sodium, potassium, calcium, and chloride electrolytes (Na, K, Ca, Cl), albumin.
