|---|---|
| Main Objective: The primary objective is to determine the optimum dose of BI 1744 CL administered as a fixed combination with 5 mcg tiotropium bromide solution for inhalation delivered by the Respimat inhaler, once daily for four weeks in patients with COPD. ;Secondary Objective: Secondary endpoints include trough FEV1 response after 2 weeks of treatment, FVC, PEF, number of occasions of rescue therapy use, and Physician's and Patient's Global Evaluation/Rating.;Primary end point(s): Trough FEV1 response [L] after four weeks of treatment. Trough FEV1 is defined as the mean of the two FEV1 values (performed at -1 hour and -10 minutes prior to test-drug inhalation) at the end of the dosing interval, 24 hours post-drug administration. Trough FEV1 response is defined as the change from study baseline in trough FEV1. Study baseline FEV1 is the mean of the two pre-treatment FEV1 values measured at Visit 2 (-1 hour and -10 minutes) prior to administration of the first dose of study medication. | — |
