Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: 1

Active Comparator 1 different salt formulation of Indacaterol.

Drug: Indacaterol maleate
Four single dose treatments (each dose is 400 µg-for the active salts-via SDDPI), with at least a 7 day inter-dose interval

Active Comparator: 2

Active Comparator 2 different salt formulation of Indacaterol.

Drug: Indacaterol maleate
Four single dose treatments (each dose is 400 µg-for the active salts-via SDDPI), with at least a 7 day inter-dose interval

Active Comparator: 3

Active Comparator 3 different salt formulation of Indacaterol.

Drug: Indacaterol maleate
Four single dose treatments (each dose is 400 µg-for the active salts-via SDDPI), with at least a 7 day inter-dose interval

Placebo Comparator: 4

Drug: Placebo

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Presence of cough within 5 minutes post dose and the onset of cough (relative to inhalation) [throughout the study]

  2. Severity of cough: to be judged independently by both the patient and the physician [throughout the study]

  3. Occurrence of cough within 1 minute post dose [throughout the study]

  4. Number of coughs [throughout the study]

  5. Duration of coughing [throughout the study]

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Presence of cough within 5 minutes post dose and the onset of cough (relative to inhalation) [throughout the study]

  2. Severity of cough: to be judged independently by both the patient and the physician [throughout the study]

  3. Occurrence of cough within 1 minute post dose [throughout the study]

  4. Number of coughs [throughout the study]

  5. Duration of coughing [throughout the study]
