Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate the dose response of RPL554 in patients with moderate to severe CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE that are still symptomatic despite treatment with a stable background of tiotropium over 4 weeks of treatment. This study is intended to support optimal dose selection for a Phase III program evaluating RPL554 as an add-on treatment to standard of care therapy.
Detailed description
This is a Phase IIb, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, multiple dose, parallel group study to investigate the effects of 4 weeks of treatment with nebulized RPL554 (at different dose levels) compared to placebo in patients with moderate to severe CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE on a stable background therapy of open-label tiotropium. The study comprises seven visits: Pre-screening (Visit 0), Screening (Visit 1) and then a Treatment Period consisting of Randomization (Visit 2), and weekly visits for 4 weeks (Visit 3 to Visit 6).
Interventions

| LS Mean Change From Baseline to the Mean Weekly Evaluating Respiratory Symptoms of COPD (E-RS:COPD) Total Score at Weeks 1 to 4 | Baseline and Weeks 1, 2, 3 and 4 | The E-RS scale consists of 11 questions, with 3 sub-domains of: breathlessness, cough and sputum, and chest symptoms. The E-RS sub-domain score was calculated as the sum from the relevant questions. The E-RS:COPD scale has a scoring range of 0 to 40. Higher scores indicates severe respiratory symptoms. Baseline was the mean over the 7 days prior to first intake of study treatment. Scores were derived weekly as the mean over 7 days prior to the visit, using only days where data was recorded.

Items 1-7 produced the symptoms score, 9-12 the activity score, and items 8, 10, 11, 13 and 14 the impacts score. Each component sub-score was calculated as a percentage of the summed weights of each item out of the sum of the maximum possible weight for that component (range 0-100). The total score was calculated by summing the weights to all positive responses in each component, where a positive item indicated the presence of symptoms, expressed as a percentage (range 0-100).

LS Mean Change From Baseline FVC to Morning Trough FVC at Weeks 1 to 4
Forced spirometry maneuvers including the FVC were used to assess pulmonary function. Baseline FVC was defined as the value of FVC assessed 30 minutes before first administration and morning trough FVC was defined as the last pre-dose value. Spirometry assessments were performed in accordance with ATS/ERS guidelines.
Time frame: Baseline (30 minutes before first administration on Day 1) and morning pre-dose on Weeks 1, 2, 3 and 4
Population: The FAS included all randomized patients with sufficient data collected after intake of study treatment to compute any of the FEV1 parameters on at least 1 occasion. Number of patients with valid values at baseline and at the specific visit were analyzed.

LS Mean Change From Baseline in the St George's Respiratory Questionnaire - COPD Specific (SGRQ-C) Total Score at Weeks 2 and 4
Patients completed the SGRQ-C consisting of 40 items each weighted from 0 to a possible maximum of 100. Items 1-7 produced the symptoms score, 9-12 the activity score, and items 8, 10, 11, 13 and 14 the impacts score. Each component sub-score was calculated as a percentage of the summed weights of each item out of the sum of the maximum possible weight for that component (range 0-100). The total score was calculated by summing the weights to all positive responses in each component, where a positive item indicated the presence of symptoms, expressed as a percentage (range 0-100). Higher scores indicated a worse outcome. The SGRQ-C was measured at Week 2 and 4 visits.
Time frame: Baseline, Weeks 2 and 4
Population: The FAS included all randomized patients with sufficient data collected after intake of study treatment to compute any of the FEV1 parameters on at least 1 occasion. Number of patients with valid values at baseline and at the specific visit were analyzed.

LS Mean Change From Baseline to the Mean Weekly Evaluating Respiratory Symptoms of COPD (E-RS:COPD) Total Score at Weeks 1 to 4
The E-RS scale consists of 11 questions, with 3 sub-domains of: breathlessness, cough and sputum, and chest symptoms. The E-RS sub-domain score was calculated as the sum from the relevant questions. The E-RS:COPD scale has a scoring range of 0 to 40. Higher scores indicates severe respiratory symptoms. Baseline was the mean over the 7 days prior to first intake of study treatment. Scores were derived weekly as the mean over 7 days prior to the visit, using only days where data was recorded. The E-RS:COPD was measured by daily electronic diary (e-diary).
Time frame: Baseline and Weeks 1, 2, 3 and 4
Population: The FAS included all randomized patients with sufficient data collected after intake of study treatment to compute any of the FEV1 parameters on at least 1 occasion. Number of patients with valid values at baseline and at the specific visit were analyzed.

LS Mean Patient Global Assessment of Change (PGAC) Questionnaire Total Score at Weeks 2 and 4
The PGAC is a single question assessment to determine whether patients noticed a change in their breathing since the start of the study. Patients were asked to respond to a PGAC question asking, Compared with prior to the study start, how do you feel your breathing is? on a scale of '1=much worse' to '5=much better', with '3=no change'. Higher scores indicate better outcome.
Time frame: Weeks 2 and 4
Population: The FAS included all randomized patients with sufficient data collected after intake of study treatment to compute any of the FEV1 parameters on at least 1 occasion. Number of patients with valid values at baseline and at the specific visit were analyzed.

LS Mean Transition Dyspnea Index (TDI) Questionnaire Total Score at Weeks 2 and 4
The TDI is a questionnaire that focussed on 3 sub-domains: functional impairment, magnitude of task and magnitude of effort. Sub-domain score was calculated as the sum from the related questions. Total score was calculated as the sum of the sub-domain scores. The TDI measures the change in dyspnea severity from the baseline as measured by the baseline dyspnea index. It was rated by 7 grades ranging from -3 (major deterioration) to +3 (major improvement). Higher scores indicate better outcome.
Time frame: Weeks 2 and 4
Population: The FAS included all randomized patients with sufficient data collected after intake of study treatment to compute any of the FEV1 parameters on at least 1 occasion. Number of patients with valid values at baseline and at the specific visit were analyzed.

Number of Patients With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
An adverse event (AE) was defined as any undesirable experience occurring to a patient, or worsening in a patient, whether considered related to the study medication or not. All AEs which started after the first dose of study treatment or started prior to first dose of study treatment and worsened, based on the Investigator's assessment of severity, on or after first dose of study treatment were considered to be treatment-emergent. A serious adverse event is any adverse experience that: results in death; is life-threatening; requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity; is a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or other important medical events.
Time frame: TEAEs were collected from the first dose of study treatment up to 1 week after the final study visit at Week 4, approximately 5 weeks.
Population: The safety analysis set included all randomized patients who received at least 1 dose of study treatment. One patient who was randomized to RPL554 0.375 mg group was dispensed wrong treatment kit and received RPL554 3 mg. Patients were classified according to actual treatment received for safety analysis set.

Steady-State Plasma Concentrations of RPL554 at Week 2
Blood samples were taken to determine steady-state plasma concentrations of RPL554 following 14 days of treatment with RPL554.
Time frame: Pre-dose at Week 2
Population: The PK analysis set included all randomized patients who had blood sampling performed and quantitative values of study treatment concentrations determined. Patients were classified according to actual treatment received for PK analysis set. Number of patients with values available at the specific visit were analyzed.
