BODE Index
The BODE index (0=relative health and 10=severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) is a multi-dimension COPD grading system that incorporates body-mass index (B), degree of airflow obstruction (O), dyspnea (D), and exercise capacity (E) as measured by the 6-minute walk test. Scores were derived using pre-dose assessments from each visit.

Inspiratory Capacity Changes From Baseline
Mean Change in Inspiratory Capacity values from baseline (baseline assessment obtained at Visit 2, pre-dose). Spirometry measurements collected within 6 hours following in-clinic rescue/supplemental medications use were excluded from analysis.
Time frame: weeks 0,3,13,26
Population: ITT Population This outcome was added as an amendment after the study was initiated; therefore approximately half of the ITT population had these assessments at baseline. An available cases analysis was performed with no imputation for missing data.

Transitional (Relative Change in) Dyspnea Index
The transitional focal score (-9 to 9) is the sum of relative change from baseline for the Functional Impairment, Magnitude of Task, and Magnitude of Effort scores (each -3 to 3 scale). A Transitional Dyspnea Index score of -9 represents a maximum degradation of all three tests; a score of 9 represents a maximum improvement of all three tests.
