Brief Summary

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

To evaluate the effect of the drug in moderate to severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) in Adults.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

To evaluate the effect of multiple subcutaneous (SC) doses of benralizumab (MEDI 563) on the rate of moderate-to-severe annualized incidence rate of moderate or severe acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) in adult subjects with moderate-to-severe COPD who exhibit eosinophilia (greater than or equal to \[\>=\] 3.0 percent \[%\] sputum eosinophilia in the previous 12 months or at Screening) in sputum compared to placebo.

* Adequate contraception from screening through end of trial
* Able to read and write.

Exclusion Criteria

* Any condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would interfere with evaluation of the investigational product or interpretation of subject safety or study results
* Pregnant, breastfeeding, or lactating women
* Known history of allergy or reaction to any component of the investigational product formulation
* History of anaphylaxis to any other biologic therapy
* Donation or transfusion of blood, plasma or platelets within the past 3 months prior to Screening
