About this study

Official title: Randomized, Double-blind, Double-dummy, Active-controlled, 4 Period Complete Cross-over Study to Compare the Effect on Lung Function of 6 Weeks Once Daily Treatment With Orally Inhaled Tiotropium+Olodaterol Fixed Dose Combination Delivered by the Respimat® Inhaler vs. 6 Weeks Twice Daily Treatment With Fluticasone Propionate+Salmeterol Fixed Dose Combination Delivered by the Accuhaler® in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

The objective of the trial is to compare the lung function profile of once daily treatment with tiotropium+olodaterol FDC [2.5/ 5µg and 5/ 5µg] delivered by the RESPIMAT with the lung function profile of twice daily treatment with fluticasone propionate+salmeterol FDC [250/50µg and 500/50µg] delivered by the Accuhaler® after 6 weeks of treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. FEV1 AUC (0-12h) Change From Patient Baseline After 6 Weeks of Treatment

    Change from patient baseline in Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1) Area Under the FEV1-time Curve from 0 to 12hours post-dose (AUC 0-12h) [L] after 6 weeks of treatment. Measured values presented are actually adjusted means.

    The period baseline is defined as the pre-dose measurement taken at on the day 1 of each period. The patient baseline is defined as the mean of non-missing period baselines for each patient.

    Measured: Baseline and 6 weeks.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. FEV1 AUC (0-24h) Change From Patient Baseline After 6 Weeks of Treatment

    Change from patient baseline in Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1) Area Under the FEV1-time Curve from 0 to 24 hours post-dose (AUC 0-24h) [L] after 6 weeks of treatment.

    Measured values presented are actually adjusted means. The period baseline is defined as the pre-dose measurement taken at on the day 1 of each period. The patient baseline is defined as the mean of non-missing period baselines for each patient.

    Measured: Baseline and 6 weeks.

  2. Trough FEV1 Change From Patient Baseline After 6 Weeks of Treatment

    Change from patient baseline in Trough Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1) after 6 weeks of treatment. Trough FEV1 was defined as the mean of the 23h and 23h 50min (minutes) post-dose FEV1 measurements. Measured values presented are actually adjusted means.

    The period baseline is defined as the pre-dose measurement taken at on the day 1 of each period. The patient baseline is defined as the mean of non-missing period baselines for each patient.

    Measured: Baseline and 6 weeks.

  3. FEV1 AUC (12-24h) Change From Patient Baseline After 6 Weeks of Treatment

    Change from patient baseline in Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1) Area Under the FEV1-time Curve from 12 to 24 hours post-dose (AUC 12-24h) [L] after 6 weeks of treatment. Measured values presented are actually adjusted means.

    The period baseline is defined as the pre-dose measurement taken at on the day 1 of each period. The patient baseline is defined as the mean of non-missing period baselines for each patient.

    Measured: Baseline and 6 weeks.

  4. FEV1 Peak (0-3h) Change From Patient Baseline After 6 Weeks of Treatment

    Change from patient baseline in Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1) peak (0-3 hours) after 6 weeks of treatment. FEV1 peak (0-3 hours) was defined as the maximum FEV1 value measured within the first three hours post dosing. Measured values presented are actually adjusted means.

    Measured: Baseline and 6 weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing fluticasone propionate, salmeterol and tiotropium in people with Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 29 sites in 8 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 23 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 12 Feb 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 29 sites in Netherlands, Germany, Czechia, Denmark, Hungary and 3 more countries. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 12 Feb 2016). 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?

FEV1 AUC (0-12h) Change From Patient Baseline After 6 Weeks of Treatment (time frame: Baseline and 6 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 12 Feb 2016.
