About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Double-dummy, Placebo- and Active-controlled, Parallel Group Efficacy and Safety Comparison of 12-week Treatment of Two Doses (5 Mcg and 10 Mcg) of Tiotropium Inhalation Solution Delivered by the Respimat Inhaler, Placebo and Ipratropium Bromide Inhalation Aerosol (MDI) i

The primary objective was to compare the bronchodilator efficacy of two doses (5 mcg and 10 mcg) of tiotropium inhalation solution delivered by the Respimat inhaler once daily to placebo and to ipratropium bromide MDI four times daily in patients with COPD. The secondary objective was to compare the safety of tiotropium inhalation solution delivered by the Respimat to placebo and ipratropium bromide MDI.

Being tested
5 mcg once daily tiotropium inhalation solution delivered by the Respimat inhaler, 10 mcg once daily tiotropium inhalation solution delivered by the Respimat inhaler

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing 5 mcg once daily tiotropium inhalation solution delivered by the Respimat inhaler and 10 mcg once daily tiotropium inhalation solution delivered by the Respimat inhaler in people with Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 25 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Nov 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 25 sites in United States, Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Trough FEV1 response after 12 weeks of treatment. (time frame: after 12 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Nov 2013.
