Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Baseline Adjusted Mean Change in FEV1 AUC0-24h Post Dose0-24 hours after dosing on Day 1 of visits 2-4 over a period of approximately 6 weeks

To show clinical bioequivalence in the efficacy of the test product as a single dose versus reference product based on the baseline adjusted mean change in forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) area under the curve from time zero to 24 hours post dose (AUC0-24h) on day 1 zero to 24 hours post-dose (AUC0-24h). Baseline was defined as the average of the FEV1 values recorded at approximately 30 minutes and 15 minutes before dosing with study medication.

Difference in Baseline Adjusted FEV1 AUC0-24h for Comparison of Lupin Tiotropium Bromide Inhalation Powder (Test) and Spiriva (Reference) to Placebo0-24 hours after dosing on Day 1 of visits 2-4 over a period of approximately 6 weeks

This measure is to demonstrate that test product as a single dose and reference product are superior to placebo based on the baseline adjusted mean change in forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) area under the curve from time zero to 24 hours post dose (AUC0-24h) on day 1 zero to 24 hours post-dose (AUC0-24h). Baseline was defined as the average of the FEV1 values recorded at approximately 30 minutes and 15 minutes before dosing with study medication.
