Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF) 5 Minutes After Morning Dose
Time Frame: Baseline (daily records during run-in, and washout) and daily records during the treatment period of 7 days
The change from baseline in PEF was calculated using the average over baseline (the last 7 days of run-in and washout period respectively), and all days of treatment, with baseline as covariate.
Secondary Outcomes
- PEF Before Morning Dose(Baseline (daily records during run-in, and washout) and daily records during the treatment period of 7 days)
- PEF 15 Minutes After Morning Dose(Baseline (daily records during run-in, and washout) and daily records during the treatment period of 7 days)
- PEF Before Evening Dose(Baseline (daily records during run-in, and washout) and daily records during the treatment period of 7 days)
- Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) Before Morning Dose(Baseline (daily records during run-in, and washout) and daily records during the treatment period of 7 days)
- FEV1 15 Minutes After Morning Dose(Baseline (daily records during run-in, and washout) and daily records during the treatment period of 7 days)
- FEV1 Before Evening Dose(Baseline (daily records during run-in, and washout) and daily records during the treatment period of 7 days)
- Change in PEF From Before Dose to 5 Minutes After Dose in the Morning(Baseline (daily records during run-in, and washout) and daily records during the treatment period of 7 days)
- Change in PEF From Before Dose to 15 Minutes After Dose in the Morning(Baseline (daily records during run-in, and washout) and daily records during the treatment period of 7 days)
- Change in FEV1from Before Dose to 5 Minutes After Dose in the Morning(Baseline (daily records during run-in, and washout) and daily records during the treatment period of 7 days)
- Change in FEV1 From Before Dose to 15 Minutes After Dose in the Morning(Baseline (daily records during run-in, and washout) and daily records during the treatment period of 7 days)
- Change in FEV1 From Before Dose to 5 Minutes After Dose at the Clinic(Baseline (run-in, and washout) and day 1 of treatment period)
- Change in Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) From Before Dose to5 Minutes After Dose at the Clinic(Baseline (run-in, and washout) and day 1 of treatment period)
- Capacity of Daily Living in the Morning (CDLM) (Change From Pre to End of Treatment)(Baseline (daily records during run-in, and washout) and daily records during the treatment period of 7 days)
- Difficulty in Getting Out From Bed (MASQ) (Change From Pre to End of Treatment)(Baseline (daily records during run-in, and washout) and daily records during the treatment period of 7 days)
- The Clinical Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Questionnaire (Change From Pre to End of Treatment)(Baseline (daily records during run-in, and washout) and daily records during the treatment period of 7 days)
