Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Randomized, Double-Blind, 4-way Crossover Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of of 24 Hour Spirometry Profiles of Inhaled BI 1744 CL and Inhaled Tiotropium Bromide in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (NCT NCT01040728)

NCT ID: NCT01040728

Last Updated: 2014-06-30

Results Overview

Response was defined as change from baseline. Study baseline FEV1 was defined as the mean of the -1 hour and -10 minute measurements performed in the morning of the first treatment visit for the first period, just prior to administration of the first morning dose of randomized treatment. Means are adjusted using a mixed effects model with treatment and period as fixed effects and patient as a random effect and study baseline as a continuous covariate. FEV1 AUC 0-12h was calculated from 0-12 hours post-dose using the trapezoidal rule, divided by the observation time (12h) to report in litres.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Study baseline and 6 weeks

Population: FAS including all patients with evaluable data for this endpoint after six weeks.

Response was defined as change from baseline. Study baseline trough FVC was defined as the mean of the available pre-dose trough FVC values prior to first dose of treatment for the first period. Trough values were the mean of obtained 23 h and 23 h 50 min after the last dose of study drug after six weeks of treatment . Means are adjusted using a mixed effects model with treatment and period as fixed effects and patient as a random effect and study baseline as a continuous covariate.
