November 16, 2016 updated by: AstraZeneca

A Multiple Dose, Randomised, Double-blind, Placebo Controlled, 2 Period Crossover Clinical Trial to Assess the Effect of Aclidinium Bromide 400 μg BID on Exercise Endurance in Patients With Stable Moderate to Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

The aim of the present study is to evaluate the effect of aclidinium bromide 400 μg twice a day (BID) administered twice a day versus placebo on exercise endurance and on hyperinflation and dyspnoea at rest and during exercise after 3 weeks of treatment.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

40 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Adult male and female patients aged ≥ 40 with stable moderate to severe COPD (Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) guidelines).
  • Post-salbutamol Forced Expiratory Volume in one second(FEV1) < 80% and ≥ 30% of predicted normal value and Post-salbutamol FEV1/Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) < 70%.
  • Current or ex-smokers of ≥ 10 pack-years
  • Functional residual capacity (FRC) measured by body plethysmography at Screening Visit ≥ 120% of predicted value

Exclusion Criteria:

  • History or current diagnosis of asthma
  • Signs of an exacerbation within 6 weeks ( or 3 months if results in hospitalisation) prior to the screening visit or during the run-in period.
  • Clinically significant respiratory and/or cardiovascular conditions or laboratory abnormalities.
  • Conditions where the use of anticholinergic drugs is contraindicated, such as known symptomatic prostatic hypertrophy, bladder neck obstruction or narrow-angle glaucoma.
  • Patients with an oxygen saturation < 85% during cycle exercise on room air at Screening Visit, Run- in Visit and Visit 1.
  • Contra-indications of cardiopulmonary exercise testing.
  • Patient who in the investigator's opinion will need to start a pulmonary rehabilitation program during the study and/or patients who have just started/finished pulmonary rehabilitation at least 3 months prior to the Screening Visit.

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
Change From Baseline in Endurance Time (Seconds)
Time Frame: Week 3
Change from baseline in endurance time during constant work rate cycle ergometry to symptom limitation at 75% of Maximum Work load (Wmax) after 3 weeks of treatment.
Week 3

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
Change From Baseline in Trough Inspiratory Capacity (IC) (Litres)
Time Frame: Week 3
Change from baseline in trough IC after 3 weeks of treatment
Week 3
Change From Baseline in Intensity of Dyspnoea
Time Frame: Week 3
Change from baseline in intensity of dyspnoea based on the Borg CR10 Scale® (ranging from '0'=nothing at all to '10'=extremely strong/maximal dyspnoea, the highest possible numerical value) at isotime during constant work rate cycle ergometry after 3 weeks of treatment.

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.

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).
