General information about the trial
|
|||
Main objective of the trial |
To demonstrate superiority of QVA149 (110/50 μg q.d.) over placebo on peak inspiratory capacity (IC) after 21 days of treatment in patients with moderate to severe COPD. Co-primary objective was to evaluate whether QVA149 was superior to placebo with respect to average physical activity level as defined by average daily activity-related energy consumption [kcal/day].
|
||
Protection of trial subjects |
The study was in compliance with the ethical principles derived from the Declaration of Helsinki and the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines. All the local regulatory requirements pertinent to safety of trial subjects were also followed during the conduct of the trial.

End point description |
Inspiratory capacity (IC) will be measured with spirometry conducted according to internationally accepted standards. The mean of 3 acceptable measurements will be calculated and reported in liters. In this cross-over trial, we had two baselines collected at day 1 and collected at day 36. From the IC measurements collected on either Day 22 or 57, respectively, the appropriate baseline measurements were subtracted – so either Day 22-Day1 or Day 57-Day36

The duration of the treatment was corrected to 21 days. The number of randomized patients was corrected to 190. The exclusion criteria were extended adding that patients with a measured GFR <50 ml/min/1,732 (moderate to severe renal impairment) at visit 1 are excluded from the study. Creatinine clearance measured by GFR (MDRD formula) was added to the list of determined laboratory parameters. |
