What is being measured

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

  1. Mean Change From Baseline in Clinic Visit Pre-dose Trough FEV1 at Day 169

    Pulmonary function was measured by forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), defined as the maximal amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled in one second. Trough FEV1 was defined as the pre-dose and pre-bronchodilator FEV1, which was obtained at each clinic visit. Baseline is defined as the mean of the two assessments made 30 minutes pre-dose and 5 minutes pre-dose on Treatment Day 1.Trough FEV1 is defined as the mean of the FEV1 values obtained 23 and 24 hours after dosing at each clinic visit. Change from Baseline was calculated as the average at each clinic visit minus the Baseline value. Analysis was performed using a repeated measures model with covariates of treatment, smoking status at screening (stratum), baseline - mean of the two assessments made 30 minutes pre-dose and immediately pre-dose on Day 1, day, day by baseline and day by treatment interactions.

    Measured: Baseline to Day 169

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Mean Change From Baseline in Chronic Respiratory Disease Questionnaire Self-administered Standardized (CRQ-SAS) Dyspnea Domain Score at Day 168

    CRQ-SAS measures 4 domains (fatigue, emotional function, mastery and dyspnea) of functioning of participants (par.) with COPD: mastery (amount of control the par. feels he/she has over COPD symptoms); fatigue (how tired the par. feels); emotional function (how anxious/depressed the par. feels); and dyspnea (how short of breath the par. feels during physical activities). Each domain is calculated separately and measured on a scale of 1-7 (1=maximum impairment; 7=no impairment). Dyspnea domain score is the mean of all non-missing responses for that domain. Only the dyspnea domain was measured as a secondary outcome. BL scores are the derived scores for each domain and total at Day 1 pre-dose. Change from BL was calculated as the average of the Day 168 values minus the BL value. Analysis performed used a repeated measures model with covariates of treatment, smoking status at screening (stratum), BL (derived scores at Day 1 pre-dose), day, day by BL, and day by treatment interactions.

    Measured: Baseline (BL) and Day 168

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing fluticasone furoate/vilanterol in people with Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 34 sites in 4 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 5 inclusion and 20 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 11 Jan 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 34 sites in China, Taiwan, South Korea, Philippines. 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 28 Jan 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?

Mean Change From Baseline in Clinic Visit Pre-dose Trough FEV1 at Day 169 (time frame: Baseline to Day 169). 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 NCT01376245, 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 11 Jan 2017.
