About this study

Official title: Acute and Two-week Effects of Spiolto® Respimat® (Tiotropium/Olodaterol) on Cardiac Function, the Autonomic Nervous System and Small Airway Function in Hyperinflated COPD Subjects

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of a combined LABA/LAMA treatment with olodaterol/tiotropium on small airway function, autonomic nervous system and cardiac function in COPD. The main objective is to study the acute effect of dual bronchodilation with olodaterol/tiotropium on cardiac function measured by MRI. This work is unique as it assesses the effects of Spiolto® Respimat® on the left-ventricular end-diastolic volume and muscle sympathetic nerve activity, two endpoints relevant for cardiovascular disease. Furthermore, the study concept introduces exhaled particle analysis as a measure for small airway function, thus offering the opportunity for a mechanistic link between airway openness, hyperinflation, and cardiac function.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Olodaterol-Tiotropium in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, run by Fraunhofer-Institute of Toxicology and Experimental Medicine at 1 site in Germany.

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 32 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 26 Apr 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Change from baseline in left ventricular enddiastolic volume index (LVEDVi) after single dose of Spiolto® Respimat® versus nebulized saline (time frame: Day -8 (baseline), Day 1, Day 9, Day 24). 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 26 Apr 2023.
