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…
Alternative mechanisms for tiotropium
2009
Tiotropium is commonly used in the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Although largely considered to be a long-acting bronchodilator, its demonstrated efficacy in reducing the frequency of exacerbations and preliminary evidence from early studies indicating that it might slow the rate of decline in lung function suggested mechanisms of action in addition to simple bronchodilation. This hypothesis was examined in the recently published UPLIFT study and, although spirometric and other clinical benefits of tiotropium treatment extended to four years, the rate of decline in lung function did not appear to be reduced by the addition of tiotropium in this study. This article summ…
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…

The effect of tiotropium/olodaterol versus fluticasone propionate/salmeterol on left ventricular filling and lung hyperinflation in patients with COPD
2020
This exploratory, randomised, double-blind, double-dummy, multicentre, cross-over study explored the effect of 6 weeks of treatment with tiotropium/olodaterol (T/O) versus fluticasone propionate/salmeterol (F/S) on left ventricular filling in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with functional residual capacity (FRC) >120% predicted and postbronchodilator improvement of FRC ≥7.5%. Overall, 76 patients were randomised across nine sites. Treatment with T/O or F/S increased left ventricular end-diastolic volume index from baseline (adjusted mean change: T/O: 2.317 mL/m2, F/S: 2.855 mL/m2), with no statistically significant difference between treatments. However, T/O resulted…
The Effect of Tiotropium in Symptomatic Asthma Despite Low- to Medium-Dose Inhaled Corticosteroids: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
2014
BackgroundTiotropium, a once-daily long-acting anticholinergic bronchodilator, has demonstrated efficacy in patients with asthma who were symptomatic despite treatment with medium- to high-dose inhaled corticosteroids (ICS).ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of once-daily tiotropium Respimat (5 μg or 2.5 μg), compared with placebo Respimat, as add-on therapy to low- to medium-dose ICS for adults with symptomatic asthma.MethodsA phase III, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was conducted (NCT01316380). Adults with symptomatic asthma receiving low- to medium-dose ICS (200-400 μg budesonide or equivalent dose) and a pre-bronchodilator forced expira…
Tiotropium in asthma: Back to the future of anticholinergic treatment
2017
Abstract Asthma is among the most common chronic diseases worldwide; however, despite progresses in the understanding of the patho-physiological mechanisms and advances in the development of new therapeutic options and strategies, the disease remains uncontrolled in a not trivial proportion of subjects. Thus, the need of new molecules to treat the underlying biological and functional abnormalities and to control symptoms is strongly advocated by clinicians. In this scenario, the most recent GINA guidelines have included the use of tiotropium bromide in the most severe and uncontrolled forms of the disease, in addition to treatment with inhaled corticosteroid plus long acting beta adrenergic…
The effect of tiotropium/olodaterol versus tiotropium on COPD exacerbation rates in patients with/without frequent exacerbation history
2019
Background: Patients with COPD with a history of frequent exacerbations are at increased risk of future exacerbations. There are limited data as to whether combining LAMA/LABA reduces exacerbation risk in all patients. We investigated whether tiotropium/olodaterol (T/O) reduced exacerbation rate versus tiotropium (tio) in patients with a range of exacerbation histories. Methods: TONADO 1+2 (NCT01431274/NCT01431287) and DYNAGITO (NCT02296138) were 52-week, parallel-group, randomised, double-blind, Phase III trials in COPD patients with FEV1 Results: There was a lower rate of moderate/severe exacerbations with T/O (0.68 per patient-year) than tio (0.77 per patient-year) (rate ratio [RR] vs ti…
