Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Male and post-menopausal female adults aged 40-80 years inclusive.
  • Patients with a clinical diagnosis of COPD according to the Global Initiative for Chronic Lung Disease (GOLD) Guidelines (2005)
  • Smoking history of at least 10 pack years (either smokers or ex-smokers).
  • Able to perform reproducible spirometry maneuvers.
  • Able to communicate well with the investigator, to understand and comply with the requirements of the study. Understand and sign the written informed consent.

Who cannot join

  • COPD exacerbations within 6 weeks prior to dosing
  • Concomitant lung disease such as asthma, requirement for long term oxygen treatment or history of lung reduction surgery.
  • Medical conditions that would interfere with the performance of spirometry or may pose a potential hazard from performing spirometry.
  • Any other medical condition that in the opinion of the Investigator may cause the patient to be unsuitable for completion of the study or place the patient at potential risk from being in the study, e.g. uncontrolled hypertension, unstable ischemic heart disease.
  • Participation in any clinical investigation within 4 weeks prior to dosing or longer if required by local regulations, and for any other limitation of participation based on local regulations.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change from baseline in IC and percent predicted FEV1 at various timepoints over 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Percent predicted FEV1 time course change over 24 hours

  2. Mean maximal change in IC time course change over 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Indacaterol (QAB149) in people with COPD, run by Novartis at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 5 inclusion and 6 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 22 Jun 2007. 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 United Kingdom. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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

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?

Change from baseline in IC and percent predicted FEV1 at various timepoints over 24 hours. 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 22 Jun 2007.
