NCT00974805

Brief Summary

This study is investigating the possible mechanisms of action of an inhaled treatment (Seretide), currently used worldwide in millions of patients with COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) and how it improves the symptoms of these patients. Previous research has failed to identify the mechanisms at play other than dilation of the airways. The research community has long thought the mechanism to be immune based or anti inflammatory but despite intensive research this has not yet been identified.
