What is being measured

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

  1. Pulmonary inflammation: Cell counts (neutrophils, macrophages, eosinophils and lymphocytes) in induced sputum samples

    Measured: Baseline and after 4 weeks treatment

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Pulmonary inflammation: Cytokine IL-8 concentration in induced sputum

    Measured: Baseline and after 4 weeks treatment

  2. Pulmonary inflammation: CD8+ and CD68+ from bronchial biopsy

    Measured: Baseline and after 4 weeks treatment

  3. Tolerability to ADC4022

    Measured: Baseline, during 4 weeks treatment and after 1 week of follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Theophylline - ADC4022 and Budesonide in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, run by Pulmagen Therapeutics at 8 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?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 12 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 2 Mar 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in Poland, 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. 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?

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?

Pulmonary inflammation: Cell counts (neutrophils, macrophages, eosinophils and lymphocytes) in induced sputum samples (time frame: Baseline and after 4 weeks treatment). 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 2 Mar 2009.
