Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 40 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The study cohort will include all patients who initiate Tiotropium/Olodaterol (Tio/Olo) or Tiotropium (Tio) during the patient selection period. Initiation (new use) will be determined based on no prescription claims for Tio/Olo or Tio during the baseline period or during all available data prior to cohort entry date. All patients will additionally be required to have a second claim for the index medication within 60 days after cohort entry to ensure primary adherence of index therapy.

Who may be able to join

  • The study cohort will include all patients who initiate Tiotropium/ Olodaterol (Tio/Olo) or Tiotropium (Tio) during the patient selection period.

Who cannot join

  • The following exclusion criteria will then be applied to generate the unmatched cohort:
  • Aged <40 years on cohort entry.
  • Any LAMA, LABA, or ICS maintenance therapy (alone or in combination) during the 180-day baseline period prior to cohort entry for maintenance treatment and duration >30 days, or any prescription within the 30 days prior to cohort entry.
  • Patients without continuous enrolment (days since first inpatient/ outpatient encounter in the data) during the baseline period.
  • No prior diagnosis of COPD [International Classification of Diseases (ICD)-10: J41*, J43*, J44* and doubt (UTAGAIFLG) = 0 (no)]
  • Patients without a second prescription claim of their index medication within 60 days after the cohort entry date.
Show all 10Show fewer
  • Diagnosis of asthma [ICD-10: J45* and doubt (UTAGAIFLG) = 0 (no)] during the baseline period.
  • Diagnosis of lung cancer [ICD-10: C34*, D02.2, Z80.1, Z85.1 and doubt (UTALAIFLG) = 0 (no)] or lung transplant (Health claim code: 150317670, 150322510, 150322610, 150336510, 150336610, 150336710, 150399270) prior to the cohort entry date using all available data.
  • Patients who initiate both Tio/Olo and Tio simultaneously on the cohort entry date.
  • Any use of triple therapy (LAMA + LABA + ICS) during the baseline period or between the cohort entry date and 1 day prior to the start of follow-up.

About this study

Official title: Early Intervention Effectiveness of Tiotropium / Olodaterol Compared to Tiotropium in COPD

Being tested
Tiotropium/Olodaterol, Tiotropium

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to Triple Therapy Initiation

    Time to triple therapy initiation (first event per patient) defined as any fixed dose combination of Long-acting muscarinic antagonists (LAMA) / Long-acting beta agonist (LABA) / Inhaled Corticosteroid (ICS) or any concurrent use for 30 consecutive days of the following:

    • any LAMA/LABA fixed dose combination + any ICS single formulation
    • any LAMA single formulation + any LABA/ICS fixed dose combination
    • any LAMA single formulation + any LABA single formulation + any ICS single formulation.

    Patients will be censored if they had an occurrence of any of the following: outcome (initiation of triple therapy), death, or end of data. The analysis will use an intention-to-treat censoring approach, which does not account for treatment change.

    Measured: From index date (cohort entry date) until first occurence of event, up to 42 months.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Time to First Moderate or Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Exacerbation

    Time to First Moderate or Severe COPD Exacerbation. Moderate exacerbation is defined as an outpatient visit with a diagnosed code for COPD in any field + a prescription for an oral corticosteroid or an antibiotic for respiratory infections. Severe exacerbations will be defined as a hospitalization with a primary diagnosis for COPD.

    Patients will be censored if they had an occurrence of any of the following: outcome (initiation of triple therapy), death, or end of data. The analysis will use an intention-to-treat censoring approach, which does not account for treatment change.

    Measured: From index date until first occurence of event, up to 42 months.

  2. Number of Moderate or Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Exacerbations

    Number of Moderate or Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Exacerbations.

    Moderate exacerbation is defined as an outpatient visit with a diagnosed code for COPD in any field + a prescription for an oral corticosteroid or an antibiotic for respiratory infections. Severe exacerbations will be defined as a hospitalization with a primary diagnosis for COPD.

    Patients will be censored if they had an occurrence of any of the following: outcome (initiation of triple therapy), death, or end of data. The analysis will use an intention-to-treat censoring approach, which does not account for treatment change.

    Measured: From index date until first occurence of event, up to 42 months.

Individual data sharing
No: Clinical studies sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim, phases I to IV, interventional and non-interventional, are in scope for sharing of the raw clinical study data and clinical study documents. Exceptions might apply, e.g. studies in products where Boehringer Ingelheim is not the license holder; studies regarding pharmaceutical formulations and associated analytical methods, and studies pertinent to pharmacokinetics using human biomaterials; studies conducted in a single center or targeting rare diseases (in case of low number of patients and therefore limitations with anonymization).

What does the primary outcome measure?

Time to Triple Therapy Initiation (time frame: From index date (cohort entry date) until first occurence of event, up to 42 months.). 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?
