Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To demonstrate the non-inferiority of CHF 5993 pMDI versus fixed combination of fluticasone furoate/vilanterol plus tiotropium in terms of quality of life (change from baseline in the St. George’s Respiratory Questionnaire [SGRQ] total score after 26 weeks of treatment). ;Secondary Objective: • To evaluate the effect of CHF 5993 pMDI on lung function parameters, patient’s health status and on clinical outcome measures. • To collect data in order to assess the impact of study treatments on health economic outcomes. • To assess the safety and tolerability of the study treatments. ;Primary end point(s): Change from baseline in the SGRQ total score;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Visit 2 (week 0) to visit 5 (week 26) | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): • SGRQ response (change from baseline in total score = -4) • Change from baseline in the SGRQ total score • Change from baseline in pre-dose morning FEV1, FVC and FEV1 response • Change from baseline of night-time COPD symptoms on sleep • Use of rescue medication • CAT score at the end of treatment • Rate of moderate and severe COPD exacerbation over 26 weeks of treatment.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Study duration | — |
