About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Open-Label, Active-Controlled, Parallel-Group, Multicenter, Long-Term Safety Trial of Treatment With Nebulized SUN-101 in Patients With COPD: GOLDEN-5 (Glycopyrrolate for Obstructive Lung Disease Via Electronic Nebulizer)

This is a long-term safety trial of 48 weeks. Eligible subjects will enter the 48-week, open-label treatment period to receive one of two treatments (SUN-101 given as 50 mcg twice a day or Spiriva® [tiotropium] given as 18 mcg once a day).

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 3, randomized, open-label, active-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter, long-term safety trial of 48 weeks of treatment with nebulized SUN-101 using an Investigational eFlow® Closed System (CS) nebulizer or Spiriva in approximately 1050 subjects with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) according to the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD 2014) guidelines.

Eligible subjects will enter the 48-week, open-label treatment period following randomization to receive one of two treatments (SUN-101 given as 50 mcg BID or Spiriva® [tiotropium] given as 18 mcg QD).

The hypothesis for this study is that the incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events reported over the course of 48 weeks of treatment by subjects randomized to SUN-101 is numerically similar to the incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events reported over the course of 48 weeks of treatment by subject randomized to Spiriva (tiotropium).

    A TEAE is any adverse event (AE) that occurred on or after the first dose of study medication, any AE with a missing start date and a stop date on or after the first dose of study medication, or any AE with both a missing start and stop date.

    Measured: Up to Week 48

  2. Percentage of Subjects With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events

    A TEAE is any adverse event (AE) that occurred on or after the first dose of study medication, any AE with a missing start date and a stop date on or after the first dose of study medication, or any AE with both a missing start and stop date.

    Measured: Up to Week 48

  3. Number of Subjects With Treatment-emergent Serious Adverse Events (SAE)

    A treatment emergent serious adverse event (SAE) is any SAE that occurred on or after the first dose of study medication, any SAE with a missing start date and a stop date on or after the first dose of study medication, or any SAE with both a missing start and stop date.

    Measured: Up to Week 48

  4. Percentage of Subjects With Treatment-emergent Serious Adverse

    A treatment emergent serious adverse event (SAE) is any SAE that occurred on or after the first dose of study medication, any SAE with a missing start date and a stop date on or after the first dose of study medication, or any SAE with both a missing start and stop date.

    Measured: Up to Week 48

    A TEAE is any adverse event (AE) that occurred on or after the first dose of study medication, any AE with a missing start date and a stop date on or after the first dose of study medication, or any AE with both a missing start and stop date.

    Measured: Up to Week 48

  6. Percentage of Subjects Who Discontinue the Study Due to TEAE

    A TEAE is any adverse event (AE) that occurred on or after the first dose of study medication, any AE with a missing start date and a stop date on or after the first dose of study medication, or any AE with both a missing start and stop date.

    Measured: Up to 48 Weeks

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Number of Subjects With Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE), Including Cardiovascular Death, Ischemia/Infarction, and Stroke

    All deaths and any other findings suggestive of a potential MACE (including clinically relevant information and SAEs, and all PTs form the SMQs "myocardial infarction", "other ischemic heart disease", "central nervous system hemorrhages and cerebrovascular conditions") were sent to an adjudication committee for review and categorized as CV death, nonfatal MI, and nonfatal stroke. The MACE score was defined as the total number of subjects with CV deaths, nonfatal MIs, and nonfatal strokes. These events were collected from the first date of study medication until the date of last contact.

    Measured: Up to Week 48

  2. Percentage of Subjects With Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE), Including Cardiovascular Death, Ischemia/Infarction, and Stroke

    All deaths and any other findings suggestive of a potential MACE (including clinically relevant information and SAEs, and all PTs form the SMQs "myocardial infarction", "other ischemic heart disease", "central nervous system hemorrhages and cerebrovascular conditions") were sent to an adjudication committee for review and categorized as CV death, nonfatal MI, and nonfatal stroke. The MACE score was defined as the total number of subjects with CV deaths, nonfatal MIs, and nonfatal strokes. These events were collected from the first date of study medication until the date of last contact.

    Measured: Up to 48 Weeks

  3. Incidence Rate Per 1000 Person Years of Subjects With Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE), Including Cardiovascular Death, Ischemia/Infarction, and Stroke

    All deaths and any other findings suggestive of a potential MACE (including clinically relevant information and SAEs, and all PTs form the SMQs "myocardial infarction", "other ischemic heart disease", "central nervous system hemorrhages and cerebrovascular conditions") were sent to an adjudication committee for review and categorized as CV death, nonfatal MI, and nonfatal stroke. The MACE score was defined as the total number of subjects with CV deaths, nonfatal MIs, and nonfatal strokes. These events were collected from the first date of study medication until the date of last contact.

    Measured: up to week 48

  4. Mean Change From Baseline Over 48 Weeks in Trough FEV1 for All Subjects

    Spirometry was performed according to internationally accepted standards. Trough FEV1 was defined as the average of the FEV1 values collected at the end of the dosing interval at each clinic visit. The mean change from baseline in trough FEV1 over the 48 week treatment period is calculated by averaging the trough FEV1 changes from baseline across all study visits while subjects are taking randomized treatment.

    Values affected by other medication use were to be set to missing.

    Measured: Up to Week 48
