Inclusion Criteria

  • Participants are eligible to be included in the study only if all of the following criteria apply:
  • 1. Participant must be 40 to 80 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent.
  • 2. Participants who have COPD (postbronchodilator FEV1/FVC ratio < 0.7 and FEV1 % predicted =40%) based on American Thoracic Society (ATS)/European Respiratory Society (ERS) current guidelines. Participants with a historical diagnosis of asthma may be included so long as they have a current diagnosis of COPD.
  • 3. History of respiratory symptoms including chronic cough, mucus hypersecretion, and dyspnea on most days for at least the previous 3 months prior to screening.
  • 4. Participants with a documented history of COPD exacerbation(s) in the 12 months prior to study participation (screening) meeting at least one of the following criteria:
  • - = 2 COPD exacerbations resulting in prescription for antibiotics and/or oral corticosteroids or hospitalization or extended observation in a hospital emergency room or outpatient center
  • - 1 COPD exacerbation resulting in prescription for antibiotics and/or oral corticosteroids of hospitalization or extended observation in a hospital emergency room or outpatient center and a plasma fibrinogen concentration at screening =3 g/L (300 mg/dL)
  • 5. Smoking history: current and former smokers with a cigarette smoking history of = 10 pack years (1 pack year = 20 cigarettes smoked per day for 1 year or equivalent).
  • Current smokers are defined as those who are currently smoking cigarettes (i.e. have smoked at least one cigarette daily or most days for the month prior to Visit 1).
  • Former smokers are defined as those who have stopped smoking for at least 6 months prior to Visit 1. Note: pipe and/or cigar use cannot be used to calculate smoking pack-year history.
  • 6. Participants must have the ability and willingness to use an electronic diary (log pad) on a daily basis.
  • 7. Body weight =45 kg
  • 8. Male or female.
  • a. Male participants:
  • A male participant must agree to use contraception as detailed in appendix of the protocol, last dose of study treatment, corresponding to approximately 6 half-lives (which is the time needed to eliminate any teratogenic study treatment) and to refrain from donating sperm during this period.
  • b. Female participants:
  • A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant not breastfeeding, and at least one of the following conditions applies:
  • (i) Not a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) as defined in
  • (ii) A WOCBP who agrees to follow the contraceptive guidance in during the treatment period and for at least 60 hours after the last dose of study treatment.
  • Are the trial subjects under 18? no
  • Number of subjects for this age range:
  • F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes
  • F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 300
  • F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes
  • F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 300

Exclusion Criteria

  • Participants are excluded from the study if any of the following criteria apply:
  • Medical Conditions
  • 1. Diagnosis of other clinically relevant lung diseases (other than COPD), e.g. sarcoidosis, tuberculosis, pulmonary fibrosis, severe bronchiectasis or lung cancer.
  • 2. Alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency as the underlying cause of COPD
  • 3. Pulse oximetry < 88% at rest at screening. Participants should be tested while breathing room air. However, participants living at high altitudes (above 5000 feet or 1500 meters above sea level) who are receiving supplemental oxygen can be included provided they are receiving the equivalent of < 4 L/min and screening pulse oximetry is measured while on their usual oxygen settings.
  • 4. Less than 14 days have elapsed from the completion of a course of antibiotics or oral corticosteroids for a recent COPD exacerbation.
  • 5. A peripheral blood neutrophil count < 1.5 x 109/L.
  • 6. Diagnosis of pneumonia (chest X-ray or CT confirmed) within the 3 months prior to screening.
  • 7. Chest x-ray (posterior-anterior with lateral) or CT scan reveals evidence of a clinically significant abnormality not believed to be due to the presence of COPD (historic results up to 1 year prior to screening may be used). For sites in Germany: If a chest x-ray (or CT scan) within 1 year prior to screening is not available, approval
  • to conduct a diagnostic chest x-ray will need to be obtained from the Federal Office of Radiation Protection (BfS).
  • 8. History or current evidence of other clinically significant medical condition that is uncontrolled on permitted therapies. Significant is defined as any disease that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would put the safety of the participant at risk through study participation, or that would affect the safety analysis or other analysis if the disease/condition worsened during the study.
  • 9. Current or chronic history of liver disease, or known hepatic or biliary abnormalities (with the exception of Gilbert’s syndrome or asymptomatic gallstones).
  • 10. Abnormal and clinically significant 12-lead ECG finding. The investigator will determine the clinical significance of each abnormal ECG finding in relation to the participant’s medical history and exclude participants who would be at undue risk by participating in the study. An abnormal and clinically significant finding that would
  • preclude a participant from entering the study is defined as a 12-lead tracing that is interpreted as, but not limited to, any of the following
  • a. AF with rapid ventricular rate > 120 bpm
  • b. sustained or non-sustained VT
  • c. second degree heart block Mobitz type II and third degree heart block (unless pacemaker or defibrillator has been implanted)
  • d. QTcF =500 msec in participants with QRS < 120 msec and QTcF =530 msec in participants with QRS =120 msec
  • 11. Previous lung surgery (e.g. lobectomy, pneumonectomy) or lung volume reduction procedure.
  • Prior/Concomitant Therapy
  • 12. Current or expected chronic use of macrolide antibiotics during the study period for the prevention of COPD exacerbations. Examples of chronic use include, but are not limited to, daily or two to three times per week use for at least 3 months.
  • 13. Oral or injectable CYP3A4 or BRCP (breast cancer resistance protein) substrates with a narrow therapeutic index (CYP3A4 substrates include, but are not limited to, alfenatil, cyclosporine, dihydroergotamine, ergotamine, fentanyl, pimozide, quinidine, sirolimus, tacr
