NCT00358436
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of LAS 34273 compared to placebo in patients with moderate to severe COPD during one year of treatment.
NCT01437878
This is a phase 2, Multi-center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the effects of inhaled Iloprost in patients with pulmonary hypertension secondary to COPD. The main objective is to investigate the effect of iloprost on exercise endurance time during constant work rate cardiopulmonary exercise testing. Other efficacy and safety endpoints will additionally be analyzed.
NCT01854645
The overall objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of treatment with PT003 (GFF MDI), PT005 (FF MDI), PT001 (GP MDI), and open-label tiotropium bromide inhalation powder compared with each other and Placebo MDI over 24 weeks in subjects with moderate to very severe COPD.
NCT01437397
The purpose of this Phase III study is to assess the maintenance bronchodilator effects of the fixed dose combination versus monotherapies. This study will also assess the effects of the fixed dose combination in terms of COPD symptoms, disease related health status and the long-term safety and tolerability of the fixed dose combination. This study will include a 24 week treatment period, preceding by a run-in period, followed by a two week follow up visit. All patients will be randomized to one of four treatment arms or placebo.
NCT00970268
The purpose of this extension study is to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of inhaled aclidinium bromide at two dose levels in patients with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This study will be 54 weeks in duration; a 52-week double-blind treatment period and 2 week follow-up phone call, following a 12 week lead-in study. All patients will be randomized from the lead-in study at one of two doses of aclidinium.
NCT01727141
This study will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of QVA149 in patients with moderate to severe airflow limitation.
NCT01715298
The study serves to determine whether the treatment of patients with stable, symptomatic Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) with the investigational drug NVA237 is efficient and safe. The efficacy and safety of the drug will be tested against a placebo treatment. The primary criterion to assess efficacy will be the difference between the serial lung function measurements of patients who have been treated for 12 weeks with NVA237 versus those that have received placebo treatment for 12 weeks. A serial lung function measurement (FEV1 testing) will be conducted and the "area under the curve" will be the measure for the ability to breathe.
NCT01009099
This study will compare the effects of exercise training and breathing retraining (using metronome tones) to exercise training only. Exercise training lasts 12 weeks.
NCT01669174
This study will assess the pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of BYM338 in patients with COPD and cachexia. The primary outcome will be a change in thigh muscle volume compared to placebo. The study will last for approximately 24 weeks.
NCT01880177
The purpose of this qualitative work is to inform the content and structure of a new screening measure for identifying undiagnosed at-risk COPD cases in primary care and support content validity of the measure. This work will build on the results of a comprehensive literature review and data mining analyses by identifying the symptomatic and health event experiences of at-risk and newly diagnosed patients, as described by the patients themselves. Specific objectives are as follows: Objective 1: To elicit concepts and symptom descriptions of COPD from patients with a recent diagnosis of COPD and those without a diagnosis but with risk factors for the disease. The qualitative information obtained in these focus groups will be used to develop a new questionnaire for identifying undiagnosed at-risk COPD cases in various clinic settings. Objective 2: To review the new questionnaire with a new set of participants with a recent COPD diagnosis or those at risk for COPD to ensure that: (a) the instructions are clear, (b) the content of each question is appropriate and understandable to participants, (c) the intended connotation of each questions is consistent with participants' interpretation or assigned meaning, and (d) to assure that content is not seen as redundant across items. This will be done through one-on-one cognitive interviews. Objective 3: To gather data on the ease/difficulty of peak flow meter use by people without or with a new diagnosis of COPD and the consistency of readings between electronic and mechanical readings in these patients. This information will be used to inform the development of peak-flow meter instructions for use as part of the screening methodology.
NCT00642616
Examine the effects of TI in combination with an anti-diabetic regimen including inhaled insulin versus anti-diabetic treatment without inhaled insulin on lung function \& pulmonary safety
NCT01349803
This study is primarily a safety study. The primary and secondary endpoints are based on 24-hour Holter monitor assessments obtained on Day 14 relative to baseline.
NCT00313209
The aim of the study is to compare the efficacy of roflumilast on pulmonary function and symptomatic parameters in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) during concomitant administration of salmeterol. The study duration will last up to 28 weeks. The study will provide further data on safety and tolerability of roflumilast.
NCT01587079
The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of Glycopyrrolate/Formoterol Fumarate MDI relative to individual components (GP MDI and FF MDI) in subjects with moderate to severe COPD
NCT01857323
This is a prospective, open-label, multicenter Phase 3 study evaluating the performance of the Albuterol Spiromax dose counter in patients with a diagnosis of asthma and/or COPD. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the functionality, reliability, and accuracy of the Albuterol Spiromax inhaler integrated dose counter in a clinical setting.
NCT02268396
This is an open-label, multi-center study to evaluate the accuracy, reliability and functionality of the Glycopyrronium and Formoterol Fumarate (GFF) Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI) dose indicator in adult subjects with moderate to very severe COPD over a 4-week Treatment Period.
NCT00687349
This research study is a randomized trial to evaluate a training program that is designed to improve the communication skills of clinicians. The training program focuses on care for patients with serious illnesses and their family members, and assesses effectiveness using patient and family outcomes. The long term goal of this research is to improve communication skills of doctors and nurses, thereby improving patient and family outcomes.
NCT01021891
