Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of Umeclidinium/Vilanterol With Fluticasone Propionate/Salmeterol in Subjects With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) (NCT NCT01879410)

NCT ID: NCT01879410

Last Updated: 2017-11-08

Results Overview

FEV1 is a measure of lung function and is defined as the maximal amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled in one second. The weighted mean was calculated from the pre-dose FEV1 and post-dose FEV1 measurements at 5 and 15 minutes and 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 hours (pre-evening dose), 13, 15, 18, 23, and 24 hours after the morning dose. Baseline is defined as the mean of the assessments made 30 and 5 minutes (min) pre-dose on treatment Day 1. Analysis was performed using an analysis of covariance model with covariates of baseline FEV1 (mean of the two assessments made 30 mins and 5 mins pre-dose on Day 1), smoking status, and treatment. Change from baseline was calculated as the value at Day 84 minus the value at Baseline.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and Day 84

Population: Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population: all randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of randomized study drug in the Treatment Period. Participants analyzed were those with data available at the presented time point; but, all participants without missing covariate information and with \>= post BL measurement were included in the analysis.

FEV1 is a measure of lung function and is defined as the maximal amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled in one second. The weighted mean was calculated from the pre-dose FEV1 and post-dose FEV1 measurements at 5 and 15 minutes and 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 hours (pre-evening dose), 13, 15, 18, 23, and 24 hours after the morning dose. Baseline is defined as the mean of the assessments made 30 and 5 minutes (min) pre-dose on treatment Day 1. Analysis was performed using an analysis of covariance model with covariates of baseline FEV1 (mean of the two assessments made 30 mins and 5 mins pre-dose on Day 1), smoking status, and treatment. Change from baseline was calculated as the value at Day 84 minus the value at Baseline.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and Day 85

Population: ITT Population. Participants analyzed were those with data available at the presented time point; but, all participants without missing covariate information were included in the analysis.

FEV1 is a measure of lung function and is defined as the maximal amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled in one second. Baseline is defined as the mean of the assessments made 30 and 5 minutes (min) pre-dose on treatment Day 1. Trough FEV1 on Day 85 is defined as the mean of the FEV1 values obtained 23 and 24 hours after morning dosing on Day 84. Analysis was performed using a repeated measures model with covariates of treatment, Baseline (mean of the 2 assessments made 30 min and 5 min pre-dose on Day 1), smoking status, day, day by baseline and day by treatment interactions. The model used all available trough FEV1 values recorded on Days 28, 56, 84, and 85. Missing data were not directly imputed in this analysis; however, all non-missing data for a participant were used within the analysis to estimate the treatment effect for trough FEV1 at Day 85. Change from baseline was calculated as the value at Day 84 minus the value at Baseline.
