Comparative Study of Error Rates Between ELLIPTA® Dry Powder Inhaler (DPI) and Other DPIs
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
For effective drug delivery using inhalation route, it is important to use the inhalers correctly. This open-label study will evaluate the error rates during the use of ELLIPTA DPI, alone or in combination, in comparison with other DPIs. The study aims to provide clinical evidence in subjects with COPD that the reduced number of steps required to use the ELLIPTA DPI could result in fewer errors made by subjects, and therefore a more consistent treatment. Approximately 450 subjects prescribed with either of RELVAR® ELLIPTA, ANORO® ELLIPTA, INCRUSE® ELLIPTA, SYMBICORT® TURBUHALER®, SERETIDE® DISKUS®, SPIRIVA® HANDIHALER®, ULTIBRO® BREEZHALER® or SEEBRI® BREEZHALER will be included in the study and will have 2 clinical visits. At Visit 1, subjects will take their maintenance DPIs and the critical and overall errors made by subjects will be assessed. After the assessment, subjects will be instructed on correct use or informed of their correct use of their DPIs. The total duration of the study is approximately 6 weeks.

Outcome Measures
Title | Percentage of Participants Making at Least One Critical Error at Visit 1-Primary Device Comparisons |
---|---|
Description | Participants were asked to demonstrate use of their prescribed DPI at Visit 1 and any error made by the participant was recorded by the health care practitioner (HCP) in the checklist. Checklist of instructions for correct use were based on the steps for correct use listed in patient instruction leaflets (PILs) for the respective DPI. The errors made during demonstration by participants were defined as "critical", when the participant received a lesser/no dose. The percentage of participants making at least one critical error in the primary DPI is presented. The analysis was performed on the Intent to Treat (ITT) Population which comprised of all enrolled participants who demonstrated use of their primary DPI. |

---|---|
Description | Participants were asked to demonstrate use of their prescribed DPI at Visit 1 and any error made by the participant was recorded by the HCP in the checklist. Checklist of instructions for correct use were based on the steps for correct use listed in PILs for the respective DPI. The errors made during demonstration by participants were defined as "critical", when the participant received a lesser/no dose and non-critical when the dose may not be affected, but the participant has demonstrated improper use of their DPI, as per the PIL. Overall errors is the combination of critical and non-critical errors. The percentage of participants with at least one overall error in primary DPI is presented. The aim of the analysis was to compare percentage of participants making at least one overall error with Ellipta versus all ICS/LABA+LAMA DPIs; hence, the arms were combined as pre-specified in the protocol and RAP. |

Title | Percentage of Participants Making at Least One Critical Error at Visit 2 in Primary DPI (Relvar Ellipta DPI Versus All ICS/LABA DPIs With a LAMA Second DPI) |
---|---|
Description | Participants were asked to demonstrate use of their prescribed DPI at Visit 2 within 6 weeks after they were retrained on the correct use of inhalers. Any error made by the participant was recorded by the HCP in the checklist. Checklist of instructions for correct use were based on the steps for correct use listed in PILs for the respective DPI. The errors made during demonstration by participants were defined as "critical", when the participant received a lesser/no dose. The percentage of participants making at least one critical error in the primary DPI is presented. The aim of the analysis was to compare percentage of participants making at least one critical error with Ellipta versus all ICS/LABA+LAMA DPIs; hence, the arms were combined as pre-specified in the protocol and RAP. |

---|---|
Description | Participants were asked to demonstrate use of their prescribed DPI at Visit 2 within 6 weeks after they were retrained on the correct use of inhalers. Any error made by the participant was recorded by the HCP in the checklist. Checklist of instructions for correct use were based on the steps listed in PILs for the respective DPI. The errors were defined as "critical", when the participant received a lesser/no dose and non-critical when the dose may not be affected, but the participant has demonstrated improper use of their DPI, as per PIL. Overall errors is the combination of critical and non-critical errors. The percentage of participants making at least one overall error in primary DPI is presented. The aim of the analysis was to compare percentage of participants making at least one overall error with Ellipta versus all ICS/LABA+LAMA DPIs; hence, the arms were combined as pre-specified in the protocol and RAP. |

Title | Percentage of Participants Making at Least One Overall Error at Visit 2-Dual Device Comparisons (Relvar Ellipta With or Without a LAMA DPI) Versus Any Other ICS/LABA DPI With or Without a LAMA DPI) |
---|---|
Description | Participants were asked to demonstrate use of their prescribed DPI at Visit 2 within 6 weeks after they were retrained on the correct use of inhalers. Any error made by the participant was recorded by the HCP in the checklist. Checklist of instructions for correct use were based on the steps for correct use listed in PILs for the respective DPI. The errors made during demonstration by participants were defined as "critical", when the participant received a lesser/no dose and non-critical when the dose may not be affected, but the participant has demonstrated improper use of their DPI, as per the PIL. Overall errors is the combination of critical and non-critical errors. The aim of the analysis was to compare percentage of participants making at least one overall error with Ellipta and Ellipta+LAMA versus Turbuhaler and Turbuhaler+LAMA and Diskus and Diskus+LAMA; hence, the arms were combined as pre-specified in the protocol and RAP. |
