Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Sign the informed consent form before the trial and have a full understanding of the trial content, process, and potential adverse reactions.
* Be willing and able to adhere to the trial visit schedule and procedures and use the dry powder inhaler correctly.
* Male and female subjects aged 40 to 80 years (inclusive).

* Subjects have no plans for pregnancy and voluntarily adopt effective contraceptive measures from screening to at least 1 month after the last use of the study drug.
* 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) showing: heart rate of 50-100 beats per minute (bpm); corrected QT interval (QTcF) \<= 450 msec for males or \<= 470 msec for females; Q wave, R wave, S wave (QRS) interval \<= 120 msec.
* Diagnosed with COPD according to the 2025 Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) criteria, and have had symptoms consistent with COPD for at least 1 year before screening.
* Have been on stable background inhaled therapy for COPD for at least 4 weeks before screening.
* Be able to perform acceptable and reproducible pulmonary function tests.
* At the screening visit (V1 visit), after administration of a bronchodilator (4 puffs of salbutamol), the FEV1/Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) ratio \< 0.7, and 30% predicted value \<= FEV1 \< 80% predicted value.
* Clinically stable COPD within 4 weeks before the screening visit (V1 visit) and between the V1 visit and V2 visit.
* Modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) Dyspnea Scale score \>= 2 at screening.
* Meet the concurrent medication restrictions (within the time intervals specified in the protocol) and are expected to maintain the restriction requirements during treatment.
* Smoking history \>= 10 pack-years (pack-year: number of packs per day × number of smoking years; e.g., 1 pack (20 cigarettes) per day for 10 consecutive years, or 10 cigarettes per day for 20 consecutive years).

Exclusion Criteria

* Life-threatening COPD history, including admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) and/or requirement for intubation.
* COPD exacerbation requiring systemic corticosteroid therapy within 3 months before the screening visit (V1 visit) or before the randomization visit (V2 visit).
* Hospitalization history due to COPD or pneumonia ≥ 1 time within 6 months before screening.
* Antibiotic treatment for upper and/or lower respiratory tract infections within 6 weeks before screening or before the randomization visit (V3 visit). Note: Subjects with a history of lower respiratory tract infection within 6 weeks cannot be enrolled, but may be rescreened 6 weeks after recovery from the infection.
* Concurrent other respiratory diseases: α-1 antitrypsin deficiency, primary ciliary dyskinesia, lung cancer; clinically significant active pulmonary infections, pulmonary tuberculosis, bronchiectasis, pulmonary fibrosis, sarcoidosis, pulmonary hypertension, asthma, and other respiratory diseases as assessed by the investigator.
* Clinically significant abnormalities found on chest computed tomography (CT) that are not caused by COPD and judged by the investigator to have an impact on trial results or patient safety. If there is no chest CT report within 6 months before Visit 1, a chest CT examination must be performed at Visit 1.
* Previous pulmonary resection or lung volume reduction surgery.
* Pulmonary rehabilitation therapy (those whose treatment has been stable for 4 weeks before screening and will remain stable during the trial may be enrolled).
* Receipt of oral corticosteroids or roflumilast for COPD within 3 months before the screening visit (V1 visit), or receipt of oral theophylline and/or theophylline derivatives for COPD within 1 week before the screening visit (V1 visit).

* Clinically significant abnormal values in safety laboratory tests (hematology, biochemistry, or urinalysis) determined by the investigator at the screening visit (V1 visit), including but not limited to one of the following:

1. Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) or Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) \> 2 × Upper Limit of Normal (ULN); alkaline phosphatase \> 2 × ULN; total bilirubin \> 1.5 × ULN;
