NCT01012765

Brief Summary

This study is being conducted to assess the effect of indacaterol (150 μg o.d.) on inspiratory capacity (IC), using placebo and open label tiotropium (18 μg o.d.) as comparators in patients with moderate chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In particular, spirometric timepoints are included to elucidate the peak-IC in a period of approximately 4 hour post inhalation

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Peak Inspiratory Capacity (IC) After 21 Days of Treatment

    IC was measured with spirometry conducted according to internationally accepted standards. Peak IC was defined as the maximum IC of the mean over the 3 values which were measured each at 30min, 2 hour, 3 hour and 4 hour post dose by body plethysmography. Analysis of variance model was used with the factors: center, period, treatment, and patients within center.

    21 days

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Trough IC After 20 Days of Treatment

    20 days

  • Peak Residual Volume (RV) After 21 Days of Treatment

    21 days

  • Peak Total Lung Capacity (TLC) After 21 Days of Treatment

    21 days

  • Peak Residual Volume/Peak Total Lung Capacity (RV/TLC) Ratio After 21 Days of Treatment

    21 days

  • Peak Specific Airway Resistance (sRaw) After 21 Days of Treatment

Study Arms (6)

Indacaterol - placebo - tiotropium

EXPERIMENTAL

In treatment period 1, patients received indacaterol 150µg once daily; in treatment period 2, patients received placebo to indacaterol once daily; in treatment period 3, patients received tiotropium 18µg once daily. Patients received indacaterol and placebo by single-dose dry powder inhaler (SDDPI); tiotropium was delivered via a proprietary inhalation device. There was a washout period of 13 days between each period. Use of fixed-dose combination of an anticholinergic plus a short-acting β2-agonist and use of long-acting β2-agonists were discontinued. Salbutamol rescue use was allowed during the treatment period as needed.
