Safety and Efficacy of BI 1744 CL in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease(COPD) I

A randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo-controlled, parallel group study to assess the efficacy and safety of 48 weeks of once daily treatment of orally inhaled BI 1744 CL (5 µg [2 actuations of 2.5 µg] and 10 µg [2 actuations of 5 µg ]) delivered by Respimat® Inhaler, and 48 weeks of twice daily Foradil® (12 µg) delivered by the Aerolizer® Inhaler, in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. All patients must have a diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and must meet the following spirometric criteria:post-bronchodilator FEV1<80% of predicted normal (ECSC) and a post-bronchodilator FEV1/FVC <70% at Visit 1 2. Male or female patients, 40 years of age or older 3. Patients must be current or ex-smokers with a smoking history of more than 10 pack years:

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Patients with a significant disease other than COPD; a significant disease is defined as a disease which, in the opinion of the investigator, may (i) put the patient at risk because of participation in the study, (ii) influence the results of the study, or (iii) cause concern regarding the patientâ??s ability to participate in the study 2. Patients with clinically relevant abnormal baseline haematology, blood chemistry, or urinalysis; all patients with an SGOT >x2 ULN, SGPT >x2 ULN, bilirubin >x2 ULN or creatinine >x2 ULN will be excluded regardless of clinical condition (a repeat laboratory evaluation will not be conducted in these patients) 3. Patients with a history of asthma. For patients with allergic rhinitis or atopy, source documentation is required to verify that the patient does not have asthma. If a patient has a total blood eosinophil count >=ï? 600/mm3, source documentation is required to verify that the increased eosinophil count is related to a non-asthmatic condition. 4. Patients with any of the following conditions: - a diagnosis of thyrotoxicosis (due to the known class side effect profile of Ã?2-agonists) - a diagnosis of paroxysmal tachycardia ( >100 beats per minute) (due to the known class side effect profile of Ã?2-agonists) 5. Patients with any of the following conditions: - a history of myocardial infarction within 1 year of screening visit (Visit 1) - unstable or life-threatening cardiac arrhythmia. - have been hospitalized for heart failure within the past year. - known active tuberculosis - a malignancy for which patient has undergone resection, radiation therapy or chemotherapy within last five years (patients with treated basal cell carcinoma are allowed) - a history of life-threatening pulmonary obstruction - a history of cystic fibrosis - clinically evident bronchiectasis - a history of significant alcohol or drug abuse 6. Patients who have undergone thoracotomy with pulmonary resection (patients with a history of thoracotomy for other reasons should be evaluated as per exclusion criterion No. 1) 7. Patients being treated with any of the following concomitant medications: - oral β-adrenergics - oral corticosteroid medication at unstable doses (i.e., less than six weeks on a stable dose) or at doses in excess of the equivalent of 10 mg of prednisone per day or 20 mg every other day 8. Patients who regularly use daytime oxygen therapy for more than one hour per day and in the investigatorâ??s opinion will be unable to abstain from the use of oxygen therapy during clinic visits 9. Patients who have completed a pulmonary rehabilitation program in the six weeks prior to the screening visit (Visit 1) or patients who are currently in a pulmonary rehabilitation program 10. Patients who have taken an investigational drug within one month or six half lives (whichever is greater) prior to screening visit (Visit 1) 11. Patients with known hypersensitivity to β-adrenergics drugs, BAC, EDTA, lactose or any other component of the Respimat® inhalation solution or Aerolizer® DPI delivery system 12. Pregnant or nursing women 13. Women of childbearing potential not using two
