About this study

A patient registry to capture real life data and demonstrate the performance of roflumilast (Daxas®) in a standard clinical practice.

Read the detailed description

The drug being tested in this observational study design is called roflumilast, but not as an therapeutic intervention. Roflumilast is approved for and marketed globally for maintenance treatment of severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) associated with chronic bronchitis in adult patients with a history of frequent exacerbations as add on to bronchodilator treatment.

This study will capture real life data and demonstrate the performance of roflumilast in a standard clinical practice. The study will enroll approximately 1350 (EU)+600(North Asia) patients. This multi-centre trial will be conducted in at least 4 EU and 2 North Asian countries.

The overall time to participate in this study is 12 months. No visits, diagnostic procedures or monitoring will take place, which would not happen had the patient not been included in the study.

Participants will be followed according to usual practice and data recorded approximately at 6 months and at 12 months of roflumilast treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of observed exacerbations

    Number of exacerbations observed during the study period and per patient per year

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Severity of exacerbations

    Severity of exacerbations (proportion of exacerbations requiring systemic corticosteroid treatment and/or antibiotics or requiring hospitalization).

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Seasonal variation of exacerbation

    Seasonal variation of exacerbation during Roflumilast treatment.

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Number of hospitalizations due to COPD exacerbations

    Number of hospitalizations due to Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbations per patient per year.

    Measured: 12 months

  4. Change from Baseline in lung function parameters (FEV1 and FEV1/FVC)

    Change in lung function parameters parameters FEV1(Forced Expired Volume measured after 1 second expiration) and FEV1/FVC (Forced Vital Capacity) from Baseline to the last recorded value and to the end of the study.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 12

  5. Change from Baseline in blood oxygen saturation

    Change in blood oxygen saturation assessed with pulse oximetry from Baseline to the last recorded value and the end of the study.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 12

  6. Percentage of compliance to treatment

    Estimated percentage of prescribed doses taken since the last date of data collection.

    Measured: 12 months

  7. Changes in concomitant administration of COPD maintenance treatments

    Changes in concomitant administration of COPD maintenance treatments since start of roflumilast treatment.

    Measured: 12 months

  8. Health status using the COPD Assessment Questionnaire (CAT)

    Measured: Baseline, Month 6 and Month 12

  9. Change from Baseline in breathlessness

    Change in breathlessness assessed using the Modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) dyspnoea scale, from Baseline to the end of observation.

    Measured: Baseline and Month 12

  10. Number of Participants with adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs)

    An ADR is a response to an observed medicinal product which is noxious and unintended resulting not only from the authorised use of a medicinal product at normal doses, but also from medication errors and uses outside the terms of the marketing authorisation, including the misuse and abuse of the medicinal product.

    Measured: 12 months

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.

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?

Number of observed exacerbations (time frame: 12 months). 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 23 Jun 2017.
