Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Main Key Exclusion Criteria are as follows: • Patients who are current smokers or have a smoking history of greater than 10 pack years (defined as the number of packs of 20 cigarettes smoked per day multiplied by number of years the patient smoked). • Patients diagnosed with COPD as defined by the GOLD 2010 guidelines. • Patients with concomitant pulmonary disease, pulmonary tuberculosis (unless confirmed by chest X-ray to be no longer active), or clinically significant bronchiectasis. • Patients with any chronic conditions affecting the respiratory tract (e.g., chronic sinusitis) or chronic lung diseases, which in the opinion of the investigator may interfere with the study evaluation or optimal participation in the study. Other protocol-defined Exclusion criteria are also applied.
