Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare CHF 5993 with CHF 1535 in improving lung function, reducing moderate and severe COPD exacerbations, and other clinical efficacy and safety outcomes in the target subject population.

Description

This is a phase III, multinational, multicenter, randomized, double-blind active controlled 2-arm parallel group study to compare efficacy, safety, and tolerability of CHF 5993 pMDI with CHF 1535 pMDI with respect to lung function, incidence of moderate and severe COPD exacerbations, and other clinical efficacy and safety outcomes.

After screening, eligible subjects will enter 2-week run-in period using their regular COPD maintenance therapies after which they will be randomized to one of 2 study treatment groups. Following randomization, subjects will be assessed after 4 weeks then at 6-week intervals thereafter for a period of 52 weeks. A follow-up safety phone call will be performed a week after the last clinic visit. A subset of subjects consenting to participate in the pharmacokinetic substudy will undergo additional assessments (totaling 3 visits) during the scheduled study visits.

During the study, daily symptoms, rescue medication use and compliance with the study drug will be recorded via a subject electronic diary. Subject concomitant medications, adverse events, and healthcare resource utilization will be assessed and recorded throughout the study. At intermittent study visits, subjects will undergo vital signs examinations including weight, spirometry measurements, and 12-lead ECG. Symptoms and COPD health status will be assessed through disease specific questionnaires. Routine hematology, blood chemistry, and serum pregnancy testing will be performed before enrollment and at end of study.

Eligibility

 Yes No Not Sure

Inclusion Criteria

Signed and dated written informed consent must be obtained prior to initiating any study-related procedures
Outpatient
Male or female subjects aged ≥40 years
A female is eligible to participate in the study if she is of non-childbearing potential defined as physiologically incapable of becoming pregnant OR childbearing potential with negative serum and urine pregnancy tests at screening, and is willing to use highly effective birth control methods for the full duration of the study
COPD diagnosis for at least 12 months before the screening visit in accordance with the definition by the GOLD 2020 Report
Current or ex-smokers who quit smoking at least 6 months prior to screening with a smoking history of at least 10 pack-years [pack-years = (number of cigarettes per day x number of years)/20]
COPD Assessment Test (CAT) score ≥10
A pre- and post-bronchodilator FEV1/FVC ratio <0.70 at screening
A post-bronchodilator FEV1 <50% predicted normal at screening and a documented history of ≥1 moderate or severe COPD exacerbation in the previous 12 months OR a post-bronchodilator FEV1 ≥50% and <80% of predicted normal at screening and a documented history of ≥2 moderate COPD exacerbations or ≥1 severe COPD exacerbation in the previous 12 months
Subjects receiving daily inhaled maintenance therapy for their COPD, at a stable dose for at least 3 months prior to the screening and randomization visits
Documentation (including imagery and report) of chest x-ray (CXR) or CT scan performed within 6 months prior to the screening visit, without evidence of significant abnormalities (other than those related to the presence of COPD)
A cooperative attitude and ability to demonstrate correct use of the pMDI inhalers and eDiary

Exclusion Criteria

Female subjects who are pregnant (as evident by a positive urine hCG or serum β-hCG test) or lactating
Subjects using the following medications prior to the screening visit and during the run-in period
Systemic/oral/parenteral corticosteroids in the prior 4 weeks
Use of antibiotics for a lower respiratory tract infection (e.g. pneumonia) or COPD exacerbation in the prior 4 weeks
Any long-term chronic maintenance use of antibiotic treatment in the prior 4 weeks
Oral xanthine derivatives (e.g. theophylline) in the prior 7 days
A moderate or severe COPD exacerbation or a respiratory tract infection (e.g
pneumonia) that has not resolved ≤14 days prior to the screening visit or
during the run-in period
Current treatment with non-cardioselective β-blockers
Requirement of long term (> 15 hours daily) oxygen therapy
Known respiratory disorders other than COPD which may impact the efficacy of the study drug according to investigator's judgement
Lung transplant surgery or lung volume reduction surgery (subjects with lung volume reduction surgery are excluded if the procedure was performed within 1 year before the Screening visit)
Medical diagnosis of narrow-angle glaucoma, prostatic hypertrophy or bladder neck obstruction that, in the opinion of the investigator, would prevent use of anticholinergic agents
History of hypersensitivity to M3 receptor antagonists, β2 agonists, corticosteroids or any of the excipients contained in any of the study drugs used in the trial which may raise contra-indications or impact the efficacy of the study drug according to the investigator's judgement
Subject has severe, acute or uncontrolled cardiovascular condition (such as but not limited to unstable ischemic heart disease, NYHA Class IV, left ventricular failure, acute myocardial infarction or unstable angina) in the last 6 months
An abnormal and clinically significant 12-lead ECG at either the screening or randomization visit. This is characterized as but not limited to any of the following
findings
Atrial fibrillation (AF) with rapid ventricular response > 120 bpm
Ventricular tachycardias (sustained, non-sustained [>3 up to 30 sec])
Evidence of Mobitz Type II second degree or third-degree atrioventricular block
Prolonged QTcF (>450ms for males, or >470ms for females). This criterion is not applicable for subjects with a pacemaker or permanent AF
Clinically significant laboratory abnormalities indicating a significant or unstable
concomitant disease which may impact the efficacy or the safety of the study
drug according to investigator's judgement
Unstable or uncontrolled concurrent disease which may impact the efficacy or safety of the study drug or the subject's participation in the study according to investigator's judgment
Malignancy that has not been in complete remission for at least 1 year or any untreated localized carcinomas
History of alcohol abuse and/or substance/drug abuse (including marijuana inhaled and oral) within 12 months prior to the screening visit
Receipt of any other investigational drug within 1 month or 5 half-lives (whichever is greater) prior to the screening visit or have been previously randomized in this trial, or are currently participating in another clinical trial
Currently in the acute phase of a pulmonary rehabilitation program within 4 weeks before the screening visit or planning to enroll in the acute phase of such a program during the study. Subjects who are in the maintenance phase of a pulmonary rehabilitation program are not excluded
Mentally or legally incapacitated, or subjects incarcerated as a result of an official or judicial order
Major surgery in the 3 months prior to the screening visit or have a planned surgery during the trial
Non-satisfactory compliance with the eDiary (<65% or >135%) during the run-in period
Subjects requiring the use of spacer device or nebulizer for administration of maintenance COPD therapies
