  • Patients with known narrow-angle glaucoma
  • Patients who are on cromolyn sodium or nedocromil sodium
  • Patients who are on antihistamines
  • Pregnant or nursing women or women of childbearing potential not using a medically approved means of contraception (e.g., oral contraceptives, intrauterine devices, diaphragm or Norplant®)
  • Patients who have taken an investigational drug within one month or 6 half-lives (whichever is longer) of the drug prior to the screening visit or patients currently enrolled in other research study
  • Patients with a history of and/or active alcohol or drug abuse
  • Patients with active infectious rhinitis (common cold) as determined by history and physical
  • Patients with upper or lower respiratory infection at screening

What is being measured

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

  1. Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) response, calculated as area under the concentration-time curve of the analyte in plasma over the time interval from 0 to 6 (AUC0-6)

    Measured: After each drug administration

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Changes in peak FEV1 response

    Measured: Baseline and after each drug administration

  2. Onset of therapeutic FEV1 response

    Measured: After each drug administration

  3. Duration of therapeutic FEV1 response

    Measured: After each drug administration

  4. Time to peak FEV1 response

    Measured: After each drug administration

  5. Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) AUC0-6

    Measured: After each drug administration

  6. Changes from baseline in FEV1

    Measured: Baseline and after each drug administration

  7. Number of patients with adverse events

    Measured: Up to 5 month after first drug administration

  8. Peak FVC response

    Measured: After each drug administration

  9. Changes from baseline in FVC

    Measured: Baseline and after each 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 9 inclusion and 21 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 9 Oct 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. 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?

Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) response, calculated as area under the concentration-time curve of the analyte in plasma over the time interval from 0 to 6 (AUC0-6) (time frame: After each drug administration). 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 9 Oct 2014; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
