About this study

The primary objective of the study is to measure changes in physical functioning - serving as a surrogate for physical activity and exercise capacity - in COPD patients being treated with Spiolto® Respimat® after approximately 6 weeks. A secondary objective is to evaluate the patient¿s general condition (physician¿s evaluation) at visit 1 (baseline visit at the start of the study) and at visit 2 (final visit at the end of the study, approx. 6 weeks after visit 1), as well as patient satisfaction with Spiolto® Respimat® at visit 2.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Patients With Therapeutic Success at Week 6 (Approx.) (Visit 2).

    Therapeutic success defined as a minimum 10-point increase of Physical functioning questionnaire (PF-10 ) score after approximately 6 weeks of Spiolto® Respimat® treatment The PF-10 used for assessing the primary outcome "physical functioning" is a sub-domain of the validated Short Form 36 (SF-36) quality of life questionnaire and consists of 10 questions evaluating the extent of experienced restrictions while conducting usual activities. The total score ranges from 0 to 100. A higher score indicates a better physical functioning.

    Measured: after approximately 6 weeks

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Changes in the PF-10 Score From Visit 1 to Visit 2

    Change in PF-10 score was determined by taking into account the individual change of each patient between Baseline (Visit 1) and Week 6 (approx.) (Visit 2).

    Measured: baseline and approx. week 6

  2. General Condition of the Patient, Evaluated by the Physician (PGE Score) at Visit 1 and Visit 2.

    Physician's Global Evaluation (PGE) score documented by physicians at visit 1 (baseline) and at visit 2 (approx. 6 weeks later). the PGE score documented from 1 to 8. The highest value (=8) representing an excellent general condition

    Measured: Baseline (Visit 1) and Week 6 (approx.) (Visit 2)

  3. Patient Overall Satisfaction With Spiolto® Respimat® at Week 6 (Approx.) (Visit 2).

    At Week 6 (approx.) (Visit 2) patients were asked how overall satisfied they were with the Spiolto® Respimat® treatment.

    Measured: Week 6 (approx.) (Visit 2)

  4. Patient Satisfaction With Inhaling From the Respimat® Device at Week 6 (Approx.) (Visit 2).

    At Week 6 (approx.) (Visit 2) patients were asked how satisfied they were by inhaling with the Respimat® device.

    Measured: Week 6 (approx.) (Visit 2)

  5. Patient Satisfaction With Handling of the Respimat® Inhalation Device at Week 6 (Approx.) (Visit 2).

    At Week 6 (approx.) (Visit 2) patients were asked how satisfied they were with handling of the Respimat® inhalation device

    Measured: Week 6 (approx.) (Visit 2)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 1 site in Germany.

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 3 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Oct 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 15 Oct 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Percentage of Patients With Therapeutic Success at Week 6 (Approx.) (Visit 2). (time frame: after approximately 6 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 NCT02675517, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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?
