Trial Outcomes & Findings for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Post-hospitalization Study (NCT NCT01110200)

NCT ID: NCT01110200

Last Updated: 2017-11-08

Results Overview

A COPD exacerbation (EX) was defined as the worsening of \>=2 major symptoms (dyspnoea, sputum volume, sputum purulence \[containing/discharging pus\]) or the worsening of any 1 major symptom together with any 1 minor symptom (sore throat, cold \[nasal discharge and/or nasal conjestion\], fever without other cause, increased cough or wheeze) for at least 2 consecutive days. COPD EXs were identified by symptom review, and/or were based on investigator judgment (via phone contact or at a clinic visit). Hospitalization had to occur \>21 days post-discharge/physician's office visit for a prior COPD EX.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: From 21 days post-discharge (hospital or emergency room) or physician's office visit, up to 29 weeks

Population: Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population: all participants randomized to study drug

A COPD exacerbation (EX) was defined as the worsening of \>=2 major symptoms (dyspnoea, sputum volume, sputum purulence \[containing/discharging pus\]) or the worsening of any 1 major symptom together with any 1 minor symptom (sore throat, cold \[nasal discharge and/or nasal conjestion\], fever without other cause, increased cough or wheeze) for at least 2 consecutive days. COPD EXs were identified by symptom review, and/or were based on investigator judgment (via phone contact or at a clinic visit). Hospitalization had to occur \>21 days post-discharge/physician's office visit for a prior COPD EX.
