Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects on lung function of a combination of ADOAIR 50/250mcg twice daily plus tiotropium bromide 18mcg once daily compared with the individual treatments (tiotropium bromide 18mcg once daily alone and ADOAIR 50/250mcg twice daily alone) in Japanese subjects with COPD. The study will utilize a three-way cross-over design with a 2-week wash-out period between each 4-week consecutive treatment period. The aim is to support the rationale for "triple combination" therapy by demonstrating that treatment with both ADOAIR and tiotropium can potentially produce improved, clinically relevant effects compared with either treatment alone.

This study will utilize a range of lung function measures in order to fully assess the benefits of triple therapy. The primary endpoint will be based on airways conductance measured using plethysmography (sGaw measured over 4hours post dose (AUC 0-4hr) on Day 28). Secondary endpoints will include lung function measures based on plethysmography and spirometry. The lung function measures will be supported by measurement of the use of relief salbutamol .

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Area Under the Curve Calculated From 0 to 4 Hours (AUC[0-4hr]) Specific Conductance (sGaw) After the Morning Dose of Study Medication at Day 28 of Each Treatment Period [Day 28 of each treatment period (up to 35 days)]

      sGaw is a measure of airways conductance and is intimately related to the diameter of the airways and consequently the level of bronchodilation. Plethysmography was performed to assess sGaw. The AUC was determined by using the trapezoidal rule and then dividing by the relevant time interval. A natural logarithmic transformation was applied and the data was analyzed by a mixed model including treatment, period and Baseline sGaw fitted as fixed effects and participants fitted as a random effect. Treatment ratios of all statistical comparisons were calculated by taking the anti-log of the difference between the Least Square (LS) means.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. AUC (0-4hr) Specific Airway Resistance (sRaw) After the Morning Dose of Each Study Medication at Day 28 of Each Treatment Period [Day 28 of each treatment period (up to 35 days)]

      sRaw is a measure of airways resistance and is intimately related to the diameter of the airways and consequently the level of bronchodilation. Plethysmography was performed to assess sRaw. The AUC was determined by using the trapezoidal rule and then dividing by the relevant time interval.

      sGaw is a measure of airways conductance and is intimately related to the diameter of the airways and consequently the level of bronchodilation. Plethysmography was performed to assess sGaws. A natural logarithmic transformation was applied and the data was analyzed by a mixed model including treatment, time, period, a treatment by time interaction and Baseline sGaw fitted as fixed effects and participant fitted as a random effect.

    3. Post-dose sRaw at 30, 75, 120 and 240 Minutes Post Dose at Day 28 of Each Treatment Period [Day 28 of each treatment period (up to 35 days)]

      sRaw is a measure of airways resistance and is intimately related to the diameter of the airways and consequently the level of bronchodilation. Plethysmography was performed to assess sRaw.

      FEV1 is a measure of lung function and the maximal amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled in one second. FVC is defined as the amount of air that can forcibly be blown out after a full inspiration. FEV1 and FVC data was obtained by spirometry measurements. IC is defined as the maximum amount of air that can be inhaled into the lungs from the normal resting position after breathing out normally. Total lung capacity (TLC) is the maximum volume to which the lungs can be expanded with the greatest possible inspiratory effort; it is equal to the vital capacity (VC) plus the residual volume (RV). RV is defined as the volume of air remaining in the lungs. after a maximal exhalation. Thoracic gas volume at functional residual capacity (TGV) is defined as the volume of intrathoracic gas at the time the airway is occluded for the plethysmographic measurement at the end of a normal expiration. Trough values were the values taken pre-dose.

    5. Trough FEV1/FVC Ratio, at Each Clinic Visit Prior to the Morning Dose and Before the Use of Rescue Medication at Day 28 of Each Treatment Period [Day 28 of each treatment period (up to 35 days)]

    Title AUC (0-4hr) Specific Airway Resistance (sRaw) After the Morning Dose of Each Study Medication at Day 28 of Each Treatment Period
    Description sRaw is a measure of airways resistance and is intimately related to the diameter of the airways and consequently the level of bronchodilation. Plethysmography was performed to assess sRaw. The AUC was determined by using the trapezoidal rule and then dividing by the relevant time interval. A natural logarithmic transformation was applied and the data was analyzed by a mixed model including treatment, period and Baseline sRaw fitted as fixed effects and participants fitted as a random effect. Treatment ratios of all statistical comparisons were calculated by taking the anti-log of the difference between the LS means.

    Description sGaw is a measure of airways conductance and is intimately related to the diameter of the airways and consequently the level of bronchodilation. Plethysmography was performed to assess sGaws. A natural logarithmic transformation was applied and the data was analyzed by a mixed model including treatment, time, period, a treatment by time interaction and Baseline sGaw fitted as fixed effects and participant fitted as a random effect.

    Description FEV1 is a measure of lung function and the maximal amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled in one second. FVC is defined as the amount of air that can forcibly be blown out after a full inspiration. FEV1 and FVC data was obtained by spirometry measurements. IC is defined as the maximum amount of air that can be inhaled into the lungs from the normal resting position after breathing out normally. Total lung capacity (TLC) is the maximum volume to which the lungs can be expanded with the greatest possible inspiratory effort; it is equal to the vital capacity (VC) plus the residual volume (RV). RV is defined as the volume of air remaining in the lungs. after a maximal exhalation. Thoracic gas volume at functional residual capacity (TGV) is defined as the volume of intrathoracic gas at the time the airway is occluded for the plethysmographic measurement at the end of a normal expiration. Trough values were the values taken pre-dose.

    9. Secondary Outcome
    Title Post-dose FEV1, FVC, IC, RV, TLC and TGV (Measured at Trough) at Day 28 of Each Treatment Period
    Description FEV1 is a measure of lung function and the maximal amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled in one second. FVC is defined as the amount of air that can forcibly be blown out after a full inspiration. FEV1 and FVC data was obtained by spirometry measurements. IC is defined as the maximum amount of air that can be inhaled into the lungs from the normal resting position after breathing out normally. Total lung capacity (TLC) is the maximum volume to which the lungs can be expanded with the greatest possible inspiratory effort; it is equal to the vital capacity (VC) plus the RV. RV is defined as the volume of air remaining in the lungs after a maximal exhalation. Thoracic gas volume at functional residual capacity (TGV) is defined as the volume of intrathoracic gas at the time the airway is occluded for the plethysmographic measurement at the end of a normal expiration.

    Time Frame Day 28 of each treatment period (up to 35 days)

    Title Use of Rescue Medication (Number of Occasions Per 24-hour Period) as Recorded in the Daily Record Card at Day 28 of Each Treatment Period
    Description Participants were given daily record cards for daily completion during the run-in, washout and treatment periods. Each morning, participants recorded the number of occasions in the last 24 hours when they had used their rescue medication (salbutamol) for symptomatic relief of COPD symptoms.
    Time Frame Day 28 of each treatment period (up to 35 days)

    Adverse Events

    Time Frame Serious adverse events (SAEs) and non-serious AEs were collected from the start of administration of the study drug until follow-up contact (up to Week 18).
    Adverse Event Reporting Description SAEs and non-serious AEs are reported for members of the Safety Population, comprised of all participants randomized to treatment, who had taken at least one dose of study medication.
