What is being measured

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

  1. Area Under the Formoterol Plasma Concentration Versus Time Curve (AUC) Over Dosing Interval at Steady State

    The standard deviation of the measure is expressed as the coefficient of variation (%)

    Measured: Day 1: 0, 5, 15 and 30 min and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours (5 min before PM dose) and 5 and 15 min post PM dose; Days 2-4: 0, 5 and 15 min post dose; Day 5: 0, 5, 15 and 30 min and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours (post AM dose)

  2. Maximum Formoterol Plasma Drug Concentration (Cmax) at Steady State

    The standard deviation of the measure is expressed as the coefficient of variation (%)

    Measured: Day 1: 0, 5, 15 and 30 min and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours (5 min before PM dose) and 5 and 15 min post PM dose; Days 2-4: 0, 5 and 15 min post dose; Day 5: 0, 5, 15 and 30 min and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours (post AM dose)

  3. Maximum Formoterol Plasma Drug Concentration (Cmax) Following a Single Dose

    The standard deviation of the measure is expressed as the coefficient of variation (%)

    Measured: Day 1: 0, 5, 15 and 30 min and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours (5 min before PM dose) and 5 and 15 min post PM dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Aclidinium/formoterol 400/12μg and Formoterol in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), run by AstraZeneca at 1 site in United States.

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 2 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 14 Feb 2017. 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 States. 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 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 23 Nov 2016). 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?

Area Under the Formoterol Plasma Concentration Versus Time Curve (AUC) Over Dosing Interval at Steady State (time frame: Day 1: 0, 5, 15 and 30 min and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours (5 min before PM dose) and 5 and 15 min post PM dose; Days 2-4: 0, 5 and 15 min post dose; Day 5: 0, 5, 15 and 30 min and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours (post AM dose)). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 14 Feb 2017.
