Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The aim of the CHOROS ORION study is to describe patients' clinical and self-reported outcomes of treatment with BGF in Italy through effectiveness, clinical and self-reported measures assessed pre- and post-treatment initiation, up to one year of observation period. The study will focus primarily on the change in self-perceived health status in the first 12 weeks of treatment. This will allow to assess the short-term impact of treatment, thus contributing to fill the gap of knowledge from the current available medical literature. Moreover, in order to provide also a broader view, patients will be followed up to 52 weeks, where possible. The study results will be interpreted in the context of an observational study design where multiple factors, in addition to the new treatment, may contribute to the treatment effect.

Condition or Disease	Intervention/Treatment	Phase
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease	Drug: BGF (budesonide/glycopyrrolate/formoterol fumarate)

Detailed Description

The therapeutic goal of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) management is mainly reduction of symptoms and severity of exacerbations.Triple therapy (the combination of an ICS, a LABA and a LAMA) in a single fixed-dose combination is a valuable development in the treatment of COPD. On top of treatment adherence enhancement [Gaduzo et al., 2019], trials showed triple therapy improving lung function, Patients-Reported Outcomes (PROs), health-related quality of life, as well as lowering exacerbations and hospitalization rate compared to dual or mono-therapy [Bourbeau et al., 2021; Zheng et al, 2018].

Budesonide/glycopyrrolate/formoterol fumarate, hereafter BGF, is a maintenance treatment in adult patients with moderate to severe COPD who are not adequately treated by a combination of an ICS and a LABA, or a combination of a LABA and a LAMA. The availability of single-inhaler triple therapies in routine care may improve symptoms control, reduce exacerbation rate and COPD-related healthcare costs, thus leading to an improvement in patient health status and quality of life. However, real-world studies focusing on PROs are still limited.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

COPD Assessment Test (CAT) score [baseline, 12 weeks after treatment start]
The change from baseline in COPD Assessment Test (CAT) score after 12 weeks treatment will be analysed using the within person difference between baseline and 12 weeks. Descriptive statistics (mean, median, standard deviation, interquartile range, minimum and maximum) will be provided. The mean change from baseline will be presented along with the 95% CI

Secondary Outcome Measures

Baseline features [Baseline]
To describe the baseline features of patients starting BGF treatment in a real-world setting, in terms of demographics and clinical characteristics, COPD treatment paths and healthcare resource utilization in the previous year.
Impact of COPD on patients' life based on CAT [baseline, 26 and 52 weeks]
To describe the impact of COPD on patients' life, and how it changes over time during the observation period of treatment with BGF, administered as per routine clinical practice. COPD Assessment Test (CAT) questionnaire at baseline and after 26 and 52 weeks after BGF treatment start. In case of patient early withdrawal, CAT questionnaire will also be collected at the end of observation.
Patients' satisfaction to BGF [baseline, 26 and 52 weeks]
9-item Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM-9) at baseline, 26 and 52 weeks from treatment start. In case of patient early withdrawal, TSQM-9 questionnaire will also be collected at the end of observation.
Patient dyspnoea based on Modified Medical Research Council Dyspnoea Scale (mMRC) [Baseline, 26 and 52 weeks]
To describe patient dyspnoea and how it changes over time during the observation period of treatment with BGF, administered as per routine clinical practice. Modified Medical Research Council Dyspnoea Scale (mMRC) questionnaire at baseline, 26 and 52 weeks from treatment start. In case of patient early withdrawal, mMRC questionnaire will also be collected at the end of observation.
Eosinophil count [baseline, 26 and 52 weeks]
To describe the eosinophil count during the observation period of treatment with BGF, administered as per routine clinical practice. Eosinophil count in peripheral blood at baseline visit, and 26- and 52-week visits, which will occur after BGF treatment start, where available.

Other Outcome Measures

Relation between patient CAT score (dependent variable of interest) and patient baseline characteristics [52 weeks]
To describe the relation of baseline characteristics and the impact of COPD on patients' life during the observation period of treatment with BGF, administered as per routine clinical practice
Baseline variables associated with exacerbations [52 weeks]
To describe the relation of baseline characteristics and occurrence of COPD exacerbations during the observation period of treatment with BGF, administered as per routine clinical practice. The analysis will be performed in steps. Firstly, univariate Poisson regression models for the estimated impact on exacerbations occurrence during the observation period will be estimated independently considering the baseline variables (age, sex, BMI, smoking status, eosinophil count in peripheral blood, COPD phenotype and years from diagnosis, number of previous MACEs, number of moderate - severe COPD exacerbations in the year before BGF treatment start, and OCS use in the year before BGF treatment start). Then a multivariate Poisson regression model will be estimated including relevant variables (i.e. with a significant estimated coefficient), as evaluated through the single univariate regression models and the number of exacerbations during follow up

To describe the occurrence of Major Cardiovascular Events (MACE) during the observation period of treatment with BGF, administered as per routine clinical practice Descriptive statistics of the time to first MACE (cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, or ischemic stroke) occurred during the BGF treatment observation period will be computed by means of a Kaplan-Meier analysis. In case patients do not experience a MACE, they will be considered as censored observations and time until the end of their observation will be calculated. In addition, the count of MACE and the absolute and relative frequency of patients with a MACE will be calculated during the BGF treatment observation period.
Mortality rate [52 weeks]
To assess the mortality during the observation period of treatment with BGF, administered as per routine clinical practice Descriptive statistics of the time to death occurred during the observation period after BGF treatment start will be computed by means of a Kaplan-Meier analysis.
