About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Double-dummy, Active (Formoterol 12 µg b.i.d) and Placebo Controlled, Multi-center, 5 Period Crossover Study to Assess the Bronchodilatory Efficacy and Safety of Single Doses of Indacaterol 150 µg, 300 µg and 600 µg Delivered Via Single Dose Dry Powder Inhaler vs. Placebo in Patients With Moderate to Severe COPD.

The study is designed to obtain safety and efficacy data on three dose levels of indacaterol when delivered via an SDDPI in patients with COPD. All patients will receive 1 day of treatment with each of the following: indacaterol 150 µg, once- indacaterol 300 µg, indacaterol 600 µg, placebo, and formoterol. Each treatment day will be followed by a washout-period of 1 week.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Lung function measured 24 hours after having taken medication, by a special test called "forced expiratory volume in 1 second "(FEV1)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. FEV1 at time points 30 min, 1, 2 and 4hours post-dose

  2. Percent change in FEV1 at time points 30 min, 1, 2 and 4 hours, 23 hours 10min and 23 hours 45 min post dose

  3. Forced vital capacity (FVC) at time points 30 min, 1, 2 and 4 hours, 23 hours 10 min and 23 hours 45 min post dose

  4. Standardized FEV1 area under the curve (AUC) between baseline and 4 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing indacaterol maleate in people with Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive and COPD, run by Novartis at 1 site in Belgium.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. 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 25 Oct 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Belgium. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Lung function measured 24 hours after having taken medication, by a special test called "forced expiratory volume in 1 second "(FEV1). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00396604, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 25 Oct 2011.
