Indacaterol 300 μg followed by placebo

Patients first received indacaterol 300 μg delivered via a single dose dry powder inhaler (SDDPI) once daily (od) in the morning for 3 weeks. After a 3-week washout period, patients received placebo delivered od via a SDDPI in the morning for 3 weeks. Daily inhaled corticosteroid treatment (if applicable) was to remain stable throughout the study. The short-acting β2-agonist salbutamol/albuterol was available for rescue use throughout the study.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Indacaterol 300 μg

Intervention Type DRUG

Indacaterol was supplied in powder filled capsules together with a single dose dry powder inhaler (SDDPI) device.

Placebo

Intervention Type DRUG

Placebo was supplied in powder filled capsules together with a single dose dry powder inhaler (SDDPI) device.
