Japan Long-term Safety for Tiotropium Plus Olodaterol

A Randomised, Double-blind, Parallel-group Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of 52 Weeks of Once Daily Treatment of Orally Inhaled Tiotropium + Olodaterol Fixed-dose Combination (2.5µg / 5µg, 5µg / 5µg ) and Olodaterol (5 µg) Delivered by the RESPIMAT Inhaler in Japanese Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

FEV1 AUC0-3h was calculated using the trapezoidal rule, divided by the duration (3 h) to report in litres. Baseline was defined as the mean of the 2 pre-treatment FEV1 values measured on day 1 (-1 hour and -10 minutes) prior to administration of the first dose of study drug.

FEV1 AUC0-3h Response

Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second Area Under Curve (AUC0-3h) response. FEV1 AUC0-3h was calculated using the trapezoidal rule, divided by the duration (3 h) to report in litres. Baseline was defined as the mean of the 2 pre-treatment FEV1 values measured on day 1 (-1 hour and -10 minutes) prior to administration of the first dose of study drug. Note: The Mean presented is the unadjusted mean.

Time frame: Baseline and 1 h, 10 min pre-dose and 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, 3 h post-dose after 52 weeks

Population: Full analysis set (FAS): This patient set included all randomised patients who received at least 1 dose of treatment and had both non-missing baseline and at least 1 non-missing post-baseline efficacy measurement. Assignment to FAS was done after implementation of any data handling rules which set measurements to missing.
