Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Any condition that would interfere with evaluation of the investigational product or interpretation of subject safety or study results 2.

Fever >37.8 °C (>100°F) measured using the tympanic temperature (or equiv. oral/rectal/axillary temperature) at Day 1 12. Use of immunosuppressive medication, including inhaled (other than Symbicort®), topical, ocular, nasal or rectal corticosteroids & systemic steroids within 28 days before randomization (Day 1) into the study 13. Receipt of immunoglobulin or blood products within 30 days before randomization into the study 14. Receipt of any novel investigational medicinal products within 3 months before the first dose of investigational product in this study and through to study end. 15.

| Primary end point(s): The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of multiple SC doses of MEDI-563 on the rate of moderate-to-severe AECOPD in adult subjects with moderate-to-severe COPD. The primary endpoint will be the number of moderate-to-severe AECOPD experienced by subjects after their first dose of investigational product to their Day 393/Early Discontinuation visit. ;Main Objective: The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of multiple subcutaneous (SC) doses of MEDI-563 on the rate of moderate-to-severe acute axacerbations in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (AECOPD) in adult subjects with moderate-to-severe COPD who exhibit eosinophilia (equal to or greater than 3% sputum eosinophilia in the previous 12 months or at screening) compared to placebo.; Secondary Objective: The secondary objectives of this study are: 1. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of MEDI-563 in this subject population. 2. To evaluate the reduction in hospitalization due to AECOPD. 3. To assess the effect of MEDI-563 on health-related quality of life measurements such as the Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease-specific Saint George's Respiratory Questionnnaire (SGRQ-C) and the Chronic Respiratory Questionnaire self-administered standardized format (CRQ-SAS). 4. To describe the effect of MEDI-563 on the BODE (Body Mass Index, Airway Obstruction, Dyspnea, and exercise capacity) index | — |
