P254 Once-daily Tiotropium And Olodaterol Fixed-dose Combination Via The Respimat(R) Improves Outcomes Versus Mono-components In Copd In Two 1-year Studies
Introduction Tiotropium (T), a once-daily long-acting muscarinic antagonist, is a well-established first-line maintenance treatment in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD); olodaterol (O) is a once-daily long-acting β 2 -agonist that has recently gained approval in several countries. Two Phase III replicate pivotal studies assessed the efficacy and safety of fixed-dose combinations of T and O (T+O) delivered via Respimat ® Soft Mist™ inhaler in patients with GOLD 2–4 COPD. Methods Two 52-week, double-blind, parallel-group studies randomised 5162 patients to O 5 µg, T 2.5 µg, T 5 µg, T+O 2.5/5 µg or T+O 5/5 µg. Primary efficacy end points were trough forced expiratory volume in 1 sec…
P256 Safety Of Once-daily Tiotropium And Olodaterol Fixed-dose Combination Via The Respimat In Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease In Two 1-year Studies
Introduction The fixed-dose combination (FDC) of tiotropium (T), a once-daily long-acting muscarinic antagonist, and olodaterol (O), a once-daily long-acting β 2 -agonist, is currently being evaluated in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Two 52-week, Phase III replicate pivotal studies were conducted to assess the efficacy and safety of FDCs of T and O (T+O) delivered via Respimat® Soft Mist™ inhaler in patients (pts) with GOLD Stage 2–4 COPD. Pooled safety data from the two studies are presented here. Methods These were double-blind, randomised, parallel-group studies with 5 arms: O 5 µg, T 2.5 µg, T 5 µg, T+O 2.5/5 µg, T+O 5/5 µg. Key inclusion criteria were: age ≥40 years, di…
