Effect of Aclidinium/Formoterol on Lung Hyperinflation, Exercise Capacity and Physical Activity in Moderate to Severe COPD Patients
ACTIVATE

Brief Summary
The present study is planned to evaluate the effect of the aclidinium bromide/formoterol fumarate 400/12 μg FDC BID on the hyperinflation, exercise endurance and physical activity in patients with moderate to severe COPD. Additionally, the effect of the behavioural intervention on top of aclidinium bromide/formoterol fumarate 400/12 μg will be assessed both on the exercise endurance and the physical activity.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change From Baseline in Trough Functional Residual Capacity (FRC) After 4 Weeks of Treatment
Baseline values in FRC were defined as the corresponding values just before randomization on Day 1 of treatment (Week 0). Trough values were obtained prior to study drug administration.
Baseline and Week 4
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Change From Baseline in Endurance Time (ET) During Constant Work Rate Cycle Ergometry at Week 8
Baseline to Week 8
Percentage of Inactive Patients (Mean of <6000 Steps Per Day) at Week 8
Week 8
Study Arms (2)
Aclidinium Bromide/Formoterol Fumarate FDC 400/12μg
EXPERIMENTAL8 weeks, double blind treatment period
Placebo to Aclidinium/Formoterol
PLACEBO COMPARATOR8 weeks, double blind treatment period
Interventions
Aclidinium bromide/Formoterol fumarate FDC 400/12μg dry powder for oral inhalation twice daily via Genuair inhaler
Dose-matched placebo dry powder for oral inhalation twice daily via Genuair inhaler
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Males and non-pregnant, non-lactating females aged ≥ 40.
- Patients with a clinical diagnosis of COPD according to GOLD guidelines 2014, with a post bronchodilator FEV1 ≥ 40% and \< 80% of the predicted value and FEV1/FVC \< 70% at Visit 1.
- Functional residual capacity (FRC) measured by body plethysmography at Visit 1 ≥ 120% of predicted value.
- Patients with modified Medical Research Council dyspnea scale (mMRC) ≥ 2 at Visit 1.
- Current or former cigarette smokers with a smoking history of at least 10 pack-years at Visit 1
- Patients willing to participate in the telecoaching program during the four last weeks and to enhance their physical activity
- Patients who understand and are able to follow the study procedures, are cooperative and are willing to participate in the study as indicated by signing the informed consent.
You may not qualify if:
- History or current diagnosis of asthma.
- Any respiratory tract infection (including upper respiratory tract) or COPD exacerbation in the 6 weeks prior to Visit 1 or during the run-in period.
- Patients who have been hospitalised for an acute COPD exacerbation within 3 months prior to Visit 1 or during the run-in period.
- Clinically significant respiratory conditions other than COPD.
- Use of long-term oxygen therapy (≥ 15 hours/day).
- Oxygen saturation ≤ 85% as measured by pulse oximetry during exercise testing at Visit 1, Visit 2 or Visit 3 prior to randomisation.
- Patients with a Body Mass Index (BMI) ≥ 40kg/m2.
- Patient who may need to start a pulmonary rehabilitation program during the study and/or who started/finished it within 3 months prior to Visit 1 or during the run-in period.
- Patients with clinically significant cardiovascular conditions.
- Patients with Type I or uncontrolled Type II diabetes, uncontrolled hypo-or hyperthyroidism, hypokalaemia, or hyperadrenergic state, uncontrolled or untreated hypertension.
- Patient with known non-controlled history of infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and/or active hepatitis.
- Patients with clinically relevant abnormalities in the results of the blood pressure, ECG, or physical examination at Visit 1.
- Patients with any serious or uncontrolled physical or mental dysfunction that could place the patient at higher risk derived from his/her participation in the study or could confound the results
- Patients with conditions other than COPD that may contribute to dyspnoea and exercise limitation or with contraindications to clinical exercise testing according to ATS recommendations for CPET
- Patients with other relevant comorbidities that make the patient nor suitable to follow-up study procedures and/or could affect physical activity
