Indacaterol Delivered Via a Single Dose Dry Powder Inhaler (SDDPI) in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

October 24, 2011 updated by: Novartis

A Randomized, Double-blind, Double-dummy, Active (Formoterol 12 µg b.i.d) and Placebo Controlled, Multi-center, 5 Period Crossover Study to Assess the Bronchodilatory Efficacy and Safety of Single Doses of Indacaterol 150 µg, 300 µg and 600 µg Delivered Via Single Dose Dry Powder Inhaler vs. Placebo in Patients With Moderate to Severe COPD.

The study is designed to obtain safety and efficacy data on three dose levels of indacaterol when delivered via an SDDPI in patients with COPD. All patients will receive 1 day of treatment with each of the following: indacaterol 150 µg, once- indacaterol 300 µg, indacaterol 600 µg, placebo, and formoterol. Each treatment day will be followed by a washout-period of 1 week.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Lung function measured 24 hours after having taken medication, by a special test called "forced expiratory volume in 1 second "(FEV1)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
FEV1 at time points 30 min, 1, 2 and 4hours post-dose
Percent change in FEV1 at time points 30 min, 1, 2 and 4 hours, 23 hours 10min and 23 hours 45 min post dose
Forced vital capacity (FVC) at time points 30 min, 1, 2 and 4 hours, 23 hours 10 min and 23 hours 45 min post dose
Standardized FEV1 area under the curve (AUC) between baseline and 4 hours
