Who may be able to join

  • All patients must have a diagnosis of COPD and must meet the following spirometric criteria:
  • Patients must have a stable, moderate to severe airway obstruction with an Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1) <=65% of predicted normal and FEV1 <=70% of Forced vital capacity (FVC)

  • All patients must sign an Informed Consent Form prior to participation in the trial (i.e., prior to pre-study washout of their usual pulmonary medications and prior to fasting for laboratory tests)

Who cannot join

  • Patients with significant diseases other than COPD will be excluded. A significant disease is defined as a disease which in the opinion of the investigator may either put the patient at risk because of participation in the study or a disease with may influence the results of the study or patients ability to participate in the study

What is being measured

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

  1. Amount of unchanged ipratropium excreted in the urine from 0 to 24 h after a single dose

    Measured: Up to 24 hours (h) after single drug administration

  2. Amount of unchanged ipratropium excreted in the urine within 1 hour at steady state

    Measured: 1h after drug administration

  3. Amount of unchanged ipratropium excreted in the urine over the 6 h dosing interval at steady state

    Measured: up to 6 h after drug administration

Secondary outcomes (13)
  1. Area under the plasma ipratropium concentration time curve at different time points

    Measured: Up to 23 days after first drug administration

  2. Peak plasma ipratropium concentration at different time points

    Measured: Up to 23 days after first drug administration

  3. Trough plasma ipratropium concentration at different time points

    Measured: Up to 23 days after first drug administration

  4. Time to peak plasma ipratropium concentrations at steady state

    Measured: Up to 23 days after first drug administration

  5. Degree of fluctuation (DF) of the plasma ipratropium concentrations

    Measured: Up to 23 days after first drug administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Ipratropium bromide HFA-134a inhalation aerosol and Atrovent CFC inhalation aerosol in people with Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive, run by Boehringer Ingelheim.

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 8 inclusion and 19 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 10 Sep 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

Amount of unchanged ipratropium excreted in the urine from 0 to 24 h after a single dose (time frame: Up to 24 hours (h) after single drug administration). 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 10 Sep 2014.
