Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

Brief summary

This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multi-site, double-blind study evaluating the efficacy of mometasone furoate/formoterol fumarate (MF/F) metered dose inhaler (MDI) 400/10 mcg twice daily (BID) and MF/F MDI 200/10 mcg BID compared with MF 400 mcg BID and F 10 mcg BID in adults at least 40 years of age, with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). All placebo-treated subjects and active-treated subjects who will not participate in the safety extension will be discontinued and will have their Final Visit at Week 26. Subjects who continue into the 26-week safety extension will have their Final Visit at Week 52. Efficacy will be measured by the mean change from Baseline to Week 13 in area under the forced expiratory volume in one second concentration time curve from 0 to 12 hours (FEV1 AUC\[0-12hr\]) and change from Baseline to Week 13 in AM predose FEV1.

Mean Area Under the Time Curve From 0 to 12 Hours (AUC(0-12 Hours)) of Change From Baseline to Week 13 in Forced Expiratory Volume (Liters) in 1 Second (FEV1)Baseline to Endpoint (13 weeks)FEV1 AUC was standardized to liters. Endpoint was the last post-baseline non-missing result through Week 13 carried forward.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Mild, Moderate, or Severe COPD ExacerbationsEndpoint (26 weeks)Mild = 12 or more inhalations/day of inhaled rescue medication or 2 or more nebulized treatments/day of inhaled rescue medication. Moderate = treatment with antibiotics or oral steroids. Severe = emergency room treatment or hospitalizations of survival curves. If an event was composed of multiple criteria, the most severe criteria was assigned to the event.
Change From Baseline to Endpoint in St George's Respiratory Questionaire (SGRQ) Total ScoreBaseline to Endpoint (26 weeks)SGRQ consisted of 76 items aggregated into 3 component scores: symptoms (frequency/severity), activity (cause or limited by breathlessness), impact (social functioning, psychological disturbances from airway disease), & total score. Best health scores have a low numeric value. All component scores & total score ranged from 0-100, with a higher score indicating greater disease burden. A 4-point increase over placebo (and Baseline) was considered the minimum clinically important difference. Endpoint was the last post-baseline non-missing result through the 26 week evaluation carried forward.
Change From Baseline in Proportion of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Symptom-Free Nights (AM Diary Symptoms)Baseline to Endpoint (26 weeks)Prior to the use of study drug rescue medication (in the morning upon awakening) the participant evaluated the COPD symptoms of wheezing, cough, and difficulty breathing. A symptom-free night was defined as a combined score of 0 (no symptoms) across all three COPD symptoms evaluated the following morning. Proportion for Baseline included data from the last week before the first dose. Proportion for Endpoint included data across the entire 26-week treatment period.
Number of Participants With Partly Stable COPDEndpoint (26 weeks)Partly stable COPD was a composite measure that included the following COPD outcomes: (1) No oral steroid rescue medication; (2) No AM or PM COPD weekly average symptom score greater than 2 during at least 7 of 8 weeks; (3) No moderate or severe exacerbations; (4) No unscheduled visits due to COPD worsenings; (5) No study discontinuation due to treatment failure or treatment-related adverse event as determined by the investigator.

Participant flow

Pre-assignment details

At Week 26, all participants randomized to placebo were to be discontinued, while 75% of participants randomized to an active treatment were randomly selected to participate in the 26-week Treatment Safety Extension. Several placebo-treated participants continued in error into the Treatment Safety Extension.
