Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Any clinically relevant disease or disorder (past or present), which in the opinion of the investigator may either put the patient at risk because of participation in the study, or influence the results of the study, or the patient’s ability to participate in the study 2. Any current respiratory tract disorders other than COPD, which are considered by the investigator to be clinically significant or may influence the result of the study 3. A clinical suspicion of active or latent tuberculosis defined as any of the following: a) positive tuberculosis test (such as Quantiferon GOLD or Mantoux-test, >5 mm in unvaccinated individuals and >10 mm in individuals with previous BCG-vaccination), and/or b) suspicion of active or latent tuberculosis on chest X-ray taken within last 12 months. and/or c) past medical history of tuberculosis 4. Malignancy or neoplastic disease within the last 5 years, other than treated basal squamous cell skin cancer or treated cervical cancer in situ 5. Disease history suggesting reduced or abnormal immune function 6. Any clinically relevant abnormal finding in physical examination, clinical chemistry, haematology, urinalysis, vital signs or ECG at baseline, which, in the opinion of the investigator, may put the patient at risk because of his/her participation in the study 7. Patients with glomerular filtration rate less than 30 ml/min, calculated as creatinine clearance from serum-creatinine according to the Cockcroft and Gault formula: (CLcreatinine (mL/min)=constant x (140-age) x weight (kg)/serum creatinine (µM).

Requirement for regular oxygen therapy 12. An exacerbation of COPD (use of oral or parenteral antibiotics and/or oral or parenteral glucocorticosteroids and/or hospitalisation related to COPD) within 30 days of Visit 2 or during run-in 13. Use of oral or parenteral glucocorticosteroids within 30 days prior to Visit 2, or during the run-in period 14. Use of inhaled glucocorticosteroids within 14 days prior to Visit 2 or during the run-in period 15.

Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary Objective: Secondary objectives are to assess the effects of AZD1236 on lung function and COPD symptoms, the safety and tolerability of AZD1236 and the systemic exposure of AZD1236. A genetic sample will be collected from patients giving separate informed consent for this.;Primary end point(s): Safety Adverse events, blood pressure, pulse, ECG and laboratory safety variables (clinical chemistry, haematology, urinalysis).;Main Objective: The primary objective is to assess the effects of AZD1236 compared with placebo on selected biomarkers in induced sputum, urine and blood in patients with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). | — |
