What is being measured

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

  1. Safety of Treatment With NVA237 in Patients With Moderate to Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

    The assessment of safety was based on adverse events, particularly those adverse events known to be associated to treatment with muscarinic antagonists. A summary of adverse events is presented with this outcome, additional details are provided in Adverse Events Sections.

    Measured: 28 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Least Squares Means of Trough Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second (FEV1), by Day

    Forced expiratory volume maneuvers recorded using a calibrated spirometer. Trough forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) on Days 1 \& 28 defined as the mean of the FEV1 values measured at 23 hours 15 minutes and 23 hours 45 minutes post-dose.

    Measured: 28 Days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing NVA237 100 µg and NVA237 200 µg in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), run by Novartis at 21 sites in 6 countries.

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 9 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 21 May 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 21 sites in United States, France, Germany, Netherlands, Spain and 1 more country. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 21 Jan 2011). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Safety of Treatment With NVA237 in Patients With Moderate to Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) (time frame: 28 days). 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 NCT00510510, 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 21 May 2012.
