- COPD diagnosis: Subjects with a clinical history of COPD in accordance with the following definition by the American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society [Celli, 2004] :
- COPD is a preventable and treatable disease characterized by airflow limitation that is not fully reversible. The airflow limitation is usually progressive and is associated with an abnormal inflammatory response of the lungs to noxious particles or gases, primarily caused by cigarette smoking. Although COPD affects the lungs, it also produces significant systemic consequences.
- Tobacco use: subjects with a current or previous history of ≥ 10 pack-years of cigarette smoking at screening (Visit 1). Previous smokers are defined as those who have stopped smoking for at least 6 months prior to Visit 1.
- Number of pack years = (number of cigarette per day/20)) x number of years smoked
- Severity of Disease: subjects who conform to the current severity classification for Stage II/III disease in terms of post-bronchodilator spirometry at Screening Visit 1:
- Subject with a measured post-salbutamol FEV1/FVC ratio of ≤0.70
- Subjects with a measured post-salbutamol FEV1 ≥ 40 % and ≤ 80 % of predicted normal values calculated using NHANES III reference equations.
Who cannot join
- Subjects meeting any of the following criteria must not be enrolled in the study:
- Pregnancy: Women who are pregnant or lactating

- Acute worsening of COPD that is managed by subject with corticosteroids or antibiotics, or
- Acute worsening of COPD that requires treatment prescribed by a physician Subjects who are hospitalized due to poorly controlled COPD within 12 weeks of the Screening Visit
- Lower respiratory tract infection: Subjects with lower respiratory tract infection that required the use of antibiotics within 6 weeks prior to Visit 1
- 12-lead ECG (Electrocardiogram): An abnormal and clinically significant 12-lead ECG that results in an active medical problem. For this study, an abnormal ECG is defined as a 12-lead tracing that is interpreted as, but not limited to, any of the following:
- Clinically significant conduction abnormalities (e.g. left bundle branch block, Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome)
- Clinically significant arrhythmias (e.g. atrial fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia)
- The independent cardiologist, contracted by GSK, will determine the clinical significance of any ECG abnormalities and determine if a subject is precluded from entering the study. However, the following predetermined ECG abnormalities are considered clinically significant and will result in exclusion of a subject:
- Ventricular rate < 45 bpm

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Change From Baseline in Weighted Mean Heart Rate 0-4 Hours Post-dose at the End of the 28-day Treatment Period
Co-Primary Endpoint. Weighted mean was derived by calculating the average area under the curve (AUC), and then dividing by the relevant time interval. Baseline is the most recent result taken on or before pre-dose Day 1. Heart rate was recorded at 60 minutes (min) prior to dosing and at 15 min, 45 min, 90 min, 120 min, and 240 min post-dose on Day 28. Change from Baseline was calculated as the Day 28 value minus the Baseline value. Analysis was performed using a restricted maximum likelihood (REML)-based repeated measures mixed model approach (MMRM) with covariates of Baseline heart rate, sex, age, smoking status, treatment, and day and day by treatment and day by Baseline interactions. par.=participants.
Measured: Baseline to Day 28
Number of Participants With Any Adverse Event (AE) and Any Serious Adverse Event (SAE) Throughout the Study
Co-Primary Endpoint. An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. An SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose: results in death; is life-threatening; requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; results in disability/incapacity; or is a congenital anomaly/birth defect. See the SAE/AE module of this results summary for a list of specific SAEs/AEs occurring in the study.
Measured: From Baseline (Day 1) until Follow-up (up to Study Day 37)
Secondary outcomes (2)
Mean Change From Baseline in Clinic Visit Trough Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second (FEV1) on Days 2, 15, and 29
FEV1 is a measure of lung function and is defined as the maximal amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled in one second. Trough FEV1 on Days 2, 15, and 29 is defined as the mean of the FEV1 values obtained 23 and 24 hours after dosing on Days 1, 14, and 28. The highest of 3 technically acceptable measurements was recorded. Baseline FEV1 is defined as the mean of the two assessments obtained 30 minutes pre-dose and immediately pre-dose on Day 1. Change from Baseline was calculated as the Day 29 value minus the Baseline value. Analysis was performed using Mixed Model Repeated Measures (MMRM) with covariates of Baseline FEV1, sex, age, smoking status, treatment and day, and day by treatment and day by Baseline interactions.
Measured: Baseline; Day 2, Day 15, and Day 29
Mean Change From Baseline (Pre-dose on Day 1) in Weighted Mean FEV1 (0-4 Hours Post-dose) on Days 1 and 28
FEV1 is a measure of lung function and is defined as the maximal amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled in one second. Serial FEV1 measurements were taken electronically by spirometry at the Day 1 and Day 28 clinic visits (60 minutes pre-dose; immediately pre-dose; post-dose after 5, 15, and 30 minutes and 1, 2, and 4 hours. Weighted mean was calculated using the 24-hour serial FEV1 measurements that included the 0 to 4 hours post-dose assessment. At each time point, the highest of 3 technically acceptable measurements was recorded. Baseline FEV1 was defined as the mean of the two assessments obtained 30 minutes pre-dose and immediately pre-dose on Day 1. Change from Baseline was calculated as the average Day 28 FEV1 value minus the Baseline value. Analysis was performed using Mixed Model Repeated Measures (MMRM) with covariates of Baseline FEV1, sex, age, smoking status, treatment and day, and day by treatment and day by Baseline interactions.
Measured: Baseline (pre-dose on Day 1); Day 1 and Day 28
