26 Week Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability Study of Indacaterol in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

July 22, 2011 updated by: Novartis

A 26-week Treatment, Multicenter, Randomized, Double Blind, Double Dummy, Placebo-controlled, Adaptive, Seamless, Parallel-group Study to Assess the Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of Two Doses of Indacaterol (Selected From 75, 150, 300 & 600 µg o.d.) in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Using Blinded Formoterol (12 µg b.i.d.) and Open Label Tiotropium (18 µg o.d.) as Active Controls

Stage 1 of the study is designed to provide data about the risk-benefit of 4 dose regimens of indacaterol (75, 150, 300 & 600 µg o.d.) in order to select two doses to carry forward into study Stage 2. Study Stage 2 will provide pivotal confirmation of efficacy, safety, and tolerability of the selected indacaterol doses in patients with COPD

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Trough Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) Assessed by Spirometry 24 Hour Post Dose After 12 Weeks of Treatment
Time Frame: after 12 weeks of treatment
FEV1 was measured with spirometry conducted according to internationally accepted standards. Trough FEV1 was defined as the average of the 23 h 10 min and the 23 h 45 min post dose values. Mixed model used baseline FEV1, FEV1 prior to and 30 minutes post inhalation of salbutamol/albuterol, and FEV1 prior to and 1 hour post inhalation of ipratropium as covariates.
after 12 weeks of treatment

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The Percentage of "Days of Poor Control" Reported Over the 26 Week Treatment Period
Time Frame: up to 26 weeks
A Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) "day of poor control" was defined as any day in the participant's diary with a score ≥2 (moderate or severe) for at least 2 of 5 symptoms (cough, wheeze, production of sputum, color of sputum, breathlessness). Score for each symptom ranges from 0-3; a higher number indicates a more severe symptom. The model contained baseline percentage of "days of poor control" as well as FEV1 reversibility components as covariates.
up to 26 weeks

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Trough Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) Assessed by Spirometry 24 Hour Post Dose After 2 Weeks of Treatment
Time Frame: Day 15, After 2 Weeks of treatment in Stage 1

Interim Analysis: Stage 1.

Spirometry was conducted according to internationally accepted standards. Trough FEV1 was defined as the average of the 23 h 10 min and the 23 h 45 min post dose values. Mixed model used baseline FEV1, FEV1 prior to and 30 minutes post inhalation of salbutamol/albuterol, and FEV1 prior to and 1 hour post inhalation of ipratropium as covariates.
Day 15, After 2 Weeks of treatment in Stage 1
Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) Standardized (With Respect to Time) Area Under the Curve (AUC) From 1 Hour to 4 Hour Post Morning Dose After 2 Weeks of Treatment
Time Frame: Day 14, After 2 Weeks of treatment in Stage 1

Interim Analysis: Stage 1.

Spirometry was conducted according to internationally accepted standards. Standardized with respect to time (AUC 1h-4h) for FEV1 measurements taken from 1 hour to 4 hour post morning dose on Day 14. Standardized FEV1 AUC was calculated by the trapezoidal rule. Mixed model used baseline FEV1, FEV1 prior to and 30 minutes post inhalation of salbutamol/albuterol, and FEV1 prior to and 1 hour post inhalation of ipratropium as covariates.
Day 14, After 2 Weeks of treatment in Stage 1

Study Major Dates

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
April 1, 2007

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
August 1, 2008

Study Completion (Actual)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
