About this study

Official title: A 52-wk Randomized Double Blind Parallel Trial: Combination of Beclometasone+Formoterol+Glycopyrrolate vs Tiotropium and vs Combination of Beclometasone+Formoterol and Tiotropium in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

The purpose of this study is to determine the triple combination of beclometasone dipropionate+Formoterol fumarate+Glycopyrrolate bromide is effective for the treatment of severe COPD patients (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease)

Read the detailed description

A 52-WEEK, DOUBLE BLIND, DOUBLE DUMMY, RANDOMIZED, 3-ARM PARALLEL GROUP, ACTIVE CONTROLLED CLINICAL TRIAL OF FIXED COMBINATION OF BECLOMETASONE DIPROPIONATE PLUS FORMOTEROL FUMARATE PLUS GLYCOPYRROLATE BROMIDE ADMINISTERED VIA PMDI (CHF 5993) VERSUS TIOTROPIUM BROMIDE AND VERSUS FIXED COMBINATION OF BECLOMETASONE DIPROPIONATE PLUS FORMOTEROL FUMARATE ADMINISTERED VIA PMDI AND TIOTROPIUM BROMIDE IN PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE

A total of 8 clinic visits (V0 to V7) will be performed during the study, as follows:

  • A pre-screening visit (V0) to obtain the written informed consent from the patient
  • A screening visit (V1) to establish the eligibility of patients, followed by a 2-week open-label run-in under Tiotropium
  • After the randomisation (V2), patients will be assessed after 4, 12, 26, 40 and 52 weeks of treatment (V3 to V7) The assessments performed at visits include routine haematology and blood chemistry, medical history, physical examination, a 12-lead ECG, spirometric parameters, vital signs).

During the run-in and the randomised treatment periods, patients use an e-diary to record symptoms, rescue medication use and compliance to the study medications daily.

AEs/SAEs and COPD exacerbations will be monitored.

Being tested
BDP/FF/GB, Tiotropium, BDP/FF + Tiotropium

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing BDP/FF/GB, Tiotropium and BDP/FF + Tiotropium in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, run by Chiesi Farmaceutici S.p.A. at 3 sites in 3 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 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 29 Oct 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Germany, Hungary, Italy. 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 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?

COPD exacerbation rate (time frame: 52 weeks). 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 NCT01911364, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 29 Oct 2021.
