NCT ID: NCT00424528

Last Updated: 2012-06-04

Results Overview

Recruitment status

COMPLETED

Study phase

PHASE4

Target enrollment

235 participants

Primary outcome timeframe

24 hours following two weeks of dosing.

Results posted on

Participant Flow

Multicenter (34 sites) study.

Started: consists of all subjects who were randomized to treatment and received at least one dose of randomized study drug (Intent to treat population). One patient was randomized to the arformoterol/tiotropium group but discontinued before receiving any study medication and is therefore not included.
