  • Placebo inhalation capsulesDrug

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. AUC(0-6) FEV1 (Area under the curve of change in FEV1 from baseline to 6 hours post dose)

    Measured: after 12 weeks of treatment

Secondary outcomes (14)
  1. Forced vital capacity (FVC)

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR)

    Measured: 12 weeks

  3. Use of rescue medication

    Measured: 12 weeks

  4. AUC0-6hFEV1

    Measured: after first dose on Day 1 and after 4 weeks of treatment

  5. Change in trough FEV1 (i.e. trough response) from baseline.

    Measured: after 4 and 12 weeks of treatment

  6. Change in peak FEV1 from baseline (=peak response) after first dose

    Measured: after 4 and 12 weeks of treatment

  7. AUC0-6hFVC defined in the same way as for FEV1.

    Measured: Day 1, week 4

  8. Trough FVC defined in the same way as for FEV1.

    Measured: Day 1, week 4

  9. Peak FVC defined in the same way as for FEV1

    Measured: Day 1, week 4

  10. Weekly average PEFR in the morning (a.m. pre-dose measurement) and in the evening (p.m. measurement).

    Measured: 12 weeks

  11. Weekly average number of puffs of rescue medication used

    Measured: 12 weeks

  12. Occurrence of adverse events

    Measured: 12 weeks

  13. Change from baseline in pulse rate and systolic and diastolic blood pressure (seated) measured just before spirometry

    Measured: 12 weeks

  14. Change from baseline in Physical examination

    Measured: 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Tiotropium inhalation capsules in people with Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive and Asthma, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 68 sites in 8 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Dec 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 68 sites in Germany, France, Canada, South Africa, Belgium and 3 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

AUC(0-6) FEV1 (Area under the curve of change in FEV1 from baseline to 6 hours post dose) (time frame: after 12 weeks of treatment). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Dec 2017.
