Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate how the airways in COPD patients, compared to healthy volunteers, absorb steroid drugs from Symbicort Turbuhaler and Seretide Diskus. The blood concentrations of the steroids will be used as surrogate marker.
