Brief summary

This study will assess preliminary parameters of safety and efficacy of a single dose of BCT197 in patients with a Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) exacerbation.

Detailed description

This was an exploratory, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, multicenter, adaptive parallel-group design study in four parts in patients with acute COPD exacerbation. In Part I, patients were randomized to receive either a single dose of 75mg BCT197, placebo or 40 mg oral prednisone in the ratio of 1:1:1. In Part II patients were randomized to receive either a single dose of 20 mg BCT197 or placebo in the ratio of 5:1. Patients in Parts I and II received their single dose on Day 1 of the study. In Parts III and IV patients were randomized to receive either BCT197 or placebo in a ratio of 5:1 at a dose of 20mg (Part III) or 75 mg (Part IV) with patients receiving a single dose on both Day 1 and Day 6 of the study.

Change in FEV1 from baseline to Day 5 or baseline to Day 10 measured in mL Measure: FEV1 Change in Forced Expiry Volume in 1 second

Time frame: Day 5, Day 10

Population: The PD analysis set included all participants without major protocol deviations that impacted efficacy/pharmacodynamic data. Here, 'Overall number of participants analyzed' signifies participants evaluable for this outcome measure and Number analyzed is the number of participants evaluated at each time point.
