About this study

Official title: Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Double-Blind, Dose Ranging, Single-Dose, 6-Way Crossover Study to Assess Safety, Efficacy and Pharmacokinetics of EP-101 Using eFlow Nebuliser in Patients With COPD

The study assessed the safety and ability of an orally inhaled medicine [i.e., Glycopyrrolate Inhalation Solution = GIS] to improve airflow in the lungs when delivered using an eFlow nebulizer in 42 patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Each patient randomly received several, single doses of GIS, or placebo, separated by approximately 1 to 2 weeks. After the dose was given, lung airflow was measured over 24 hours and blood was collected to measure how much GIS was in the bloodstream. The study was conducted to find the once-a- day GIS dose that produced the highest improvement in lung airflow using the eFlow nebulizer.

What is being measured

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

  1. Trough FEV1 (Change From Baseline)

    Spirometry measurements were conducted in accordance with the current ATS/ERS 2005 guidelines.

    Trough FEV1 was defined as the mean of FEV1 values obtained at 23 hours 30 minutes and 24 hours post-dose of each Treatment Visit.

    Measured: 24hr post dose

  2. Standardized FEV1AUC0-12 Area Under the FEV1 Curve From 0 to 12 Hours Post-dose ( Actual and Change From Baseline).

    Spirometry measurements were conducted in accordance with the current ATS/ERS 2005 guidelines.. The standardized actual FEV1 AUC(0-12) was calculated using the trapezoidal rule divided by the actual hours from the first FEV1 to the last FEV1 in the interval. Standardized change from baseline FEV1 AUC(0-12) was also calculated similarly, using the change from pre-dose FEV1.

    Measured: 0-12h post dose

  3. Standardized FEV1AUC12-24 Area Under the FEV1 Curve From 12 to 24 Hours Post- Dose (Actual and Change From Baseline).

    Spirometry measurements were conducted in accordance with the current ATS/ERS 2005 guidelines. The standardized actual FEV1 AUC(12-24) was calculated using the trapezoidal rule divided by the actual hours from the first FEV1 to the last FEV1 in the interval. Standardized change from baseline FEV1 AUC(12-24) was also calculated similarly, using the change from pre-dose FEV1.

    Measured: 12-24h post dose

  4. Standardized FEV1 AUC0-24 Area Under the FEV1 Curve From 0 to 24 Hours Post-dose (Actual and Change Baseline)

    Spirometry measurements were conducted in accordance with the current ATS/ERS 2005 guidelines. . The standardized actual FEV1 AUC(0-24) was calculated using the trapezoidal rule divided by the actual hours from the first FEV1 to the last FEV1 in the interval. Standardized change from baseline FEV1 AUC(0-24) was also calculated similarly, using the change from pre-dose FEV1.

    Measured: 0 to 24h

  5. Peak FEV1 (Change From Baseline and Percent Change)

    spirometry measurements were conducted in accordance with the current ATS/ERS 2005 guidelines. . The peak FEV1 was defined as the highest post-dose FEV1 value within 4 hrs after the dose. Percent change from baseline was calculated as 100 times the difference of peak FEV1 minus baseline FEV1 divided by baseline FEV1.

    Measured: 0-4h post dose

    Measured: 0 to 12 hour

  6. Number of Subjects Who Died, Number of Subjects With Treatment Emergent SAEs, Number of Subjects Who Discontinued Due to AE

    AE's are defined as existing conditions which worsen or events which occur during the course of the clinical trial after treatment

    Measured: Day 69 (includes dosing Day 1, washout Day 12, safety follow up Day 69)

  7. Number of Subjects With Clinically Significant Abnormal Vital Signs Reported During the Study

    Vital signs were measured at screening and at each Treatment Visit pre-dose (within 30 minutes prior to dose); post-dose at 30 minutes and 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours; and then at the post study assessment.

    Measured: 0-24 h

  8. Number of Clinically Significant Abnormal Laboratory Results Reported During the Study

    Clinical safety lab parameters were collected at screening and at the post study assessment. Any laboratory values that were out of range of normal reference values were evaluated by the Investigators.

    Measured: Day -14, Day 69

  9. Number of Subjects With Clinically Significant ECG Parameters Reported During the Study

    ECGs were recorded at screening and at each study treatment visit pre-dose (within 30 minutes prior to dose); post-dose at 30 minutes and 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours; and then at the post study assessment.

    Measured: 0 to 24h

  10. Percentage of Subjects With Treatment Emergent AEs

    AE's are defined as existing conditions which worsen or events which occur during the course of the clinical trial after treatment

    Measured: Day 69 (includes dosing Day 1, washout Day 12, safety follow up Day 69)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Glycopyrrolate Inhalation Solution12.5μg, Glycopyrrolate Inhalation Solution 50μg and Glycopyrrolate Inhalation Solution 100μg in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, run by Sunovion Respiratory Development Inc..

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 28 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 12 Mar 2018. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 12 Mar 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?

Trough FEV1 (Change From Baseline) (time frame: 24hr post dose). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02948582, 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Mar 2018.
