Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of this multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 4-period, incomplete-block crossover, dose-ranging study comparing 2 fixed dose combinations (FDCs) of aclidinium bromide with formoterol fumarate or with placebo, aclidinium bromide and formoterol fumarate, all administered twice a day (BID) in patients with stable, moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) beginning with a 2-week run-in period and with a 7-10 day washout each between treatment period.

  • Be in good stable health (as judged by the Investigator) other than the COPD, based on medical history, physical examination, ECG, spirometry, and clinical laboratory data evaluations

  • Have COPD symptoms and FEV1 values at the time of randomization that are stable compared with those at Screening (Visit 1), according to the Investigator's medical judgment

Exclusion Criteria:
  • Have been hospitalized for an acute COPD exacerbation within 3 months before screening

  • Have any respiratory tract infection (including the upper respiratory tract) or signs of a COPD exacerbation or respiratory infection in the 6 weeks before Screening (Visit 1).

  • Have any clinically significant respiratory conditions other than COPD

  • Have a history or presence of asthma verified from medical records

  • Have used theophylline (including long-acting theophylline) within the previous 3 months before study entry

  • Have Stage II hypertension, defined as systolic pressure of 160 and above, and diastolic pressure of 100 and above

  • Chronic use of oxygen therapy ≥ 15 hours a day

  • Have a history, current diagnosis, or presence of exercise-induced bronchospasm

  • Have a body mass index ≥ 40 kg/m2

  • Have participated in an pulmonary rehabilitation program within the previous 3 months

  • Have clinically significant cardiovascular conditions

  • Have uncontrolled infection resulting from human immunodeficiency virus and/or active hepatitis

  • Have symptomatic prostatic hypertrophy and/or bladder neck obstruction.

  • Have narrow-angle glaucoma

  • Have a history of hypersensitivity reaction (including report of paradoxical bronchospasm) to inhaled anticholinergics (including aclidinium bromide), β2 adrenergic agonists, or any other inhaled medication or any component thereof

  • Have a QTcB, as indicated in the centralized reading report, above 470 msec in the resting ECGs performed at Screening (Visit 1) and/or patients who are using medications that may prolong the QT interval

  • Have clinically relevant abnormalities in the results of clinical laboratory tests, in ECG parameters other than QTc, in results of the physical examination,

  • Have any concurrent medical condition that, in the judgment of the Investigator, might interfere with the conduct of the study, confound the interpretation of the study results, or endanger the patient's well-being

  • Do not maintain regular day/night, waking/sleeping cycles (eg, patients with history of sleep apnea syndrome or any disease related with sleep disturbances such as restless legs syndrome or somnambulism)
