Effects of long-acting bronchodilators in COPD patients according to COPD severity and ICS use
2013
SummaryBackgroundIndacaterol is a once-daily, long-acting β2-agonist bronchodilator that improves dyspnoea and health status in patients with moderate-to-severe COPD. While its bronchodilator effects have been shown to be maintained in different patient subgroups, effects on clinical outcomes in certain subgroups are not yet defined.MethodsPost-hoc analysis of pooled clinical study data to investigate efficacy and safety of indacaterol compared with placebo and other long-acting bronchodilators (formoterol, salmeterol, open-label tiotropium) in patient subgroups defined by COPD severity (GOLD stage II or III; n = 4082) and ICS use at baseline (no/yes; n = 4088). Efficacy outcomes were troug…
In vitro dose comparison of Respimat<sup>&reg;</sup> inhaler with dry powder inhalers for COPD maintenance therapy
2017
Background Combining in vitro mouth-throat deposition measurements, cascade impactor data and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, four different inhalers were compared which are indicated for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) treatment. Methods The Respimat inhaler, the Breezhaler, the Genuair, and the Ellipta were coupled to the idealized Alberta throat model. The modeled dose to the lung (mDTL) was collected downstream of the Alberta throat model using either a filter or a next generation impactor (NGI). Idealized breathing patterns from COPD patient groups - moderate and very severe COPD - were applied. Theoretical lung deposition patterns were assessed by an indiv…
Tiotropium - ein langwirksames, inhalatives Anticholinergikum zur Therapie der chronisch-obstruktiven Lungenerkrankung (COPD)
2003
Anticholinergics are agents of first choice for the symptomatic treatment of patients with COPD. Tiotropium (Ba 679 BR, Spiriva) is a long-acting inhaled anticholinergic designed for once-daily bronchodilator treatment of COPD. Tiotropium is a selective antagonist of pulmonary M1 and M3 muscarinic receptor subtypes, that produces a long-lasting (24 hours), dose-dependent bronchodilation and bronchoprotection against constrictive stimuli, e. g. methacholine, following inhalation of single doses. Clinical trials with tiotropium in COPD patients over a maximum treatment duration of one year have confirmed a persisting bronchodilator effect of tiotropium compared with placebo and ipratropium, a…
Efficacy and safety of indacaterol and tiotropium in COPD patients according to dyspnoea severity.
2013
Background Guidelines for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) recommend that treatment choices be based partly on symptoms. Methods A post-hoc analysis of pooled data from clinical studies compared the efficacy and safety of once-daily inhaled bronchodilators indacaterol (150 and 300 μg) and open-label tiotropium (18 μg) according to baseline dyspnoea severity on the modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) scale in patients with COPD (mMRC scores <2 = ‘less dyspnoea’; scores ≥2 = ‘more dyspnoea’). Outcomes were assessed after 26 weeks. Results The analysis included 3177 patients. In patients with less dyspnoea: indacaterol (both doses) improved 24-h post-dose (‘trough’) forced exp…
Effect of QVA149 on lung volumes and exercise tolerance in COPD patients: The BRIGHT study
2014
Summary Introduction QVA149 is a novel, inhaled, once-daily dual bronchodilator containing a fixed-dose combination of the long-acting β 2 -agonist indacaterol and the long-acting muscarinic antagonist glycopyrronium (NVA237), for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This study evaluated the effects of QVA149 on exercise tolerance, hyperinflation, lung function and lung volumes versus placebo and tiotropium. Methods Patients with moderate-to-severe COPD were randomized to QVA149 110/50 μg, placebo or tiotropium 18 μg once daily in a blinded, 3-period crossover study for 3 weeks. The primary endpoint was exercise endurance time at Day 21 for QVA149 versus placebo. R…

P296 Effect of tiotropium/olodaterol therapy on copd exacerbations in the tonado® studies
2016
Rationale The lung-function efficacy, symptomatic benefits and safety of combined tiotropium (T), a long-acting muscarinic antagonist, and olodaterol (O), a long-acting β 2 -agonist, for the treatment of COPD, was established in the year-long TONADO ® studies (NCT01431274; NCT01431287). It is unknown if these benefits of T/O translate into a reduction in COPD exacerbation rate. Methods Two replicate, randomised, double-blind, parallel-group trials assessed T/O 2.5/5 μg and T/O 5/5 μg compared to the monocomponents T 5 μg, T 2.5 μg and O 5 µg (all delivered via Respimat ® inhaler) in patients with moderate to very severe COPD. Primary end points included lung function (forced expiratory volu…
Safety of tiotropium/olodaterol in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: pooled analysis of three large, 52-week, randomized clinical trials.
2018
Abstract Background An extensive clinical trial program supports the efficacy and safety of tiotropium/olodaterol in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We examined the safety of tiotropium/olodaterol compared with tiotropium in a large population of patients, focusing on cardiovascular and respiratory events. Methods Patients (n = 9942) who received once-daily tiotropium/olodaterol 5/5 μg or tiotropium 5 μg (via Respimat®) in TONADO 1 & 2 and DYNAGITO were included. The number of patients and exposure-adjusted rate of events are presented for adverse events (AEs), serious AEs (SAEs), AEs leading to discontinuation, and cardiovascular and respiratory events. Findings Fewer patient…
Tiotropium and olodaterol fixed-dose combination versus mono-components in COPD (GOLD 2-4).
2015
Efficacy and safety of tiotropium+olodaterol fixed-dose combination (FDC) compared with the mono-components was evaluated in patients with moderate to very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in two replicate, randomised, double-blind, parallel-group, multicentre, phase III trials. Patients received tiotropium+olodaterol FDC 2.5/5 μg or 5/5 μg, tiotropium 2.5 μg or 5 μg, or olodaterol 5 μg delivered once-daily via Respimat inhaler over 52 weeks. Primary end points were forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) area under the curve from 0 to 3 h (AUC0–3) response, trough FEV1 response and St George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) total score at 24 weeks. In total, 5162 patien…
