What is being measured

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

  1. Adjusted Mean Endurance Time After 6 Weeks

    Primary endpoint was endurance time during constant work rate ergometry to symptom limitation at 75% of maximal work capacity after 6 weeks of treatment. Mixed effects model on log10 transformation data. Adjusted means are back transformed to report as geometric means. Standard errors (SEs) are calculated using the delta method.

    Measured: 6 weeks

Secondary outcomes (23)

  18. Adjusted Mean Peak Expiratory Flow Rate, 1 Hour Post-dose After 6 Weeks

    Measured: 6 weeks

  19. Change From Baseline to Day 43 in Blood Pressure

    Change from Baseline to Day 43 in Blood Pressure with spirometry. Baseline is defined as mean of pre-treatment values at a given time point.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 6

  20. Change From Baseline to Day 43 in Pulse Rate

    Change from Baseline to Day 43 in Pulse rate with spirometry. Baseline is defined as mean of pre-treatment values at a given time point.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 6

  21. Number of Patients With Notable Changes in Heart Rate

    Number of Patients with notable changes in heart rate (HR). Notable HR increase defined as >=25% increase and on-treatment HR > 100 bpm; Notable HR decrease defined as >=25% decrease and on-treatment HR < 50 bpm.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 6

  22. Number of Patients With Notable Increase in PR Intervals

    Number of Patients with notable increase in PR intervals. Notable PR interval increase defined as >=25% increase and on-treatment PR interval > 200 ms.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 6

  23. Number of Patients With Notable Increase in QRS Intervals

    Number of Patients with notable increase in QRS intervals. Notable QRS interval increase defined as >=10% increase and on-treatment QRS interval > 110 ms.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Olodaterol (BI 1744) in people with Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 19 sites in 5 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 6 inclusion and 11 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 8 Jul 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 19 sites in France, Australia, Germany, Canada, Austria. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 Jul 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Adjusted Mean Endurance Time After 6 Weeks (time frame: 6 weeks). 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 NCT01040130, 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 8 Jul 2014.
