About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Parallel-Group, 12-Week Study to Evaluate the Anti-Inflammatory Effect of Fluticasone Propionate/Salmeterol DISKUS 250/50mcg BID Compared With Salmeterol DISKUS 50mcg Twice Daily in Subjects With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

This study evaluates the effect of two medicines on COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease). The study will last 12 weeks. At the end of 12 weeks of treatment, subjects will stop the study medicines for 2 weeks. The study will involve 6 visits to the clinic. Subjects who elect to undergo bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) procedures will have 8 study visits. Subjects will give sputum, blood, and in some cases BAL samples. Subjects will have breathing tests and will complete diary cards during the study. All study medicines and examinations will be given at no cost to the study subjects. Both medicines used in this study have been approved by the US FDA.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Salmeterol and Fluticasone Propionate/Salmeterol Combination Product in people with Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 11 sites in United States.

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 3 inclusion and 8 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Oct 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 sites in United States. 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 was stopped early (reason given: The study was terminated due to difficulties with finding sites and subjects willing to participate.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Percent of sputum neutrophils. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00346749, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Oct 2016; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
