Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
To Evaluate the Effect of Mitiperstat (AZD4831) as Compared to Placebo on the Time to First COPD Composite Exacerbation (CompEx) Event in Patients With Moderate to Severe COPD.
COPDCompEx is a composite endpoint of exacerbations and events defined from participant e-Diaries and peak expiratory flow (PEF). COPDCompEx defined exacerbations included episodes leading to one or more of the following: hospitalization, emergency room visit, treatment with systemic corticosteroids (injected and/or oral), or treatment with antibiotics. Diary COPDCompEx events are defined by threshold and slope criteria being met for \>= 2 consecutive days using the following diary and home spirometry variables: overall symptom rating, night-time awakenings due to symptoms, reliever medication use, PEF. COPDCompEx also includes patient withdrawals for treatment failure.
From baseline to up to 24 weeks
Secondary Outcomes (8)
To Assess the PK of Mitiperstat (AZD4831) in Patients With Moderate to Severe COPD
At week 12
To Assess the Pharmacokinetics (PK) of Mitiperstat (AZD4831) in Patients With Moderate to Severe COPD.
At week 12
To Evaluate the Effect of Mitiperstat (AZD4831) as Compared to Placebo on the Time to First Moderate or Severe Exacerbation.
From baseline to up to week 24
To Assess the Effects of Mitiperstat (AZD4831) as Compared to Placebo on Post-bronchodilator (BD) Forced Expiratory Volume in the First Second (FEV1) in Patients With Moderate to Severe COPD.
From baseline to week 12
To Assess the Effect of Mitiperstat (AZD4831) Compared to Placebo on Respiratory Symptoms in Patients With Moderate to Severe COPD.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Provision of informed consent.
- Participants must be deemed as high risk of exacerbations as defined by: \>= 1 moderate or severe exacerbation in the previous 24 months; or frequent productive cough; or post-bronchodilator (BD) forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) \< 50% predicted.
- Participants must be 40-80 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing informed consent form (ICF).
- Participants who have a confirmed primary diagnosis of moderate to severe COPD.
- Participants who are current or ex-smokers with a tobacco history of ≥ 10 pack-years.
- Participants who have a documented stable regimen of triple therapy or dual therapy for
- ≥ 3 months prior to enrolment.
- Body mass index within the range 18 to 40 kg/m2 (inclusive).
You may not qualify if:
- As judged by the investigator, any evidence of any active medical or psychiatric condition or other reason (at SV1 \[screening\] and SV3 \[pre-dose\]) which in the investigator's opinion makes it undesirable for the participant to participate in the study.
- Current diagnosis of asthma or past diagnosis of asthma which persisted beyond the age of 25 years.
- Clinically important pulmonary disease other than COPD.
- Any other clinically relevant abnormal findings on physical examination, laboratory testing including haematology, coagulation, serum chemistry, or urinalysis; or chest CT scan at screening or randomisation, which in the opinion of the investigator or medical monitor may compromise the safety of the participant in the study or interfere with evaluation of the study intervention or reduce the participant's ability to participate in the study.
- History of a clinically significant infection (viral, bacterial, or fungal; defined as requiring systemic antibiotics, antiviral, or antifungal medication for \> 7 days) within 4 weeks prior to SV3 (Day 1) (including unexplained diarrhoea) or clinical suspicion of infection at time of dosing.
