About this study

Official title: Effects of Inhaled Tiotropium Bromide on Severity of Airflow Obstruction During Long-term Treatment in Patients With Moderately Severe Copd. Impact on Severity and Incidence of Exacerbations.

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of a one-year treatment with inhaled tiotropium bromide 18 mcg once daily on lung function, incidence and severity of exacerbations in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

The secondary purpose was to explore possible relationships between lung function changes and occurrence of COPD exacerbations and to try to characterize these exacerbations.

Read the detailed description

This was a multicentre, randomised, double blind, parallel group, placebo-controlled, one year study. It was designed to determine the effect of inhaled tiotropium treatment on airflow obstruction (PEFR), incidence and severity of exacerbations in patients with COPD.

Following an initial 3-week screening period qualifying patients were randomized to either tiotropium or placebo at Visit 2. Patients returned to the clinic at weeks 6 (Visit 3), 12 (Visit 4), 24 (Visit 5), 36 (Visit 6), 48 (Visit 7) and at Week 50 for the conclusion of the trial (Visit 8). The patients received treatment daily for 48 weeks (336 days).

PEFR, as well as use of rescue medication and respiratory condition, were self-assessed by patients and recorded every morning on a graphical diary card every morning. The graphical presentation of these data was supposed to help investigators to detect exacerbations occurring between two consecutive visits.

Details on hospitalizations due to COPD exacerbations were recorded in a special hospitalization booklet.

Study Hypothesis:

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of a one-year treatment with inhaled tiotropium bromide 18 mcg once daily on lung function, incidence and severity of exacerbations in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

The secondary purpose was to explore possible relationships between lung function changes and occurrence of COPD exacerbations and to try to characterize these exacerbations.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Tiotropium in people with Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 55 sites in France.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 1 Nov 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 55 sites in France. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

morning peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) (time frame: 50 weeks). 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 1 Nov 2013.
