Brief description of study
What is the purpose of this study?
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and the safety of two doses of CHF6001 (Tanimilast) as add-on to maintenance triple therapy in the target patient population.
THIS STUDY IS ENROLLING BY INVITATION ONLY - Severe-to-very severe COPD patients with chronic bronchitis, on regular maintenance triple therapy and a documented history of at least one moderate or severe COPD exacerbation in the previous year will be identified and contacted directly by the research team about study participation.
Detailed description of study
What will happen during the study?
- This is a phase III, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo and active-controlled, 4-arm parallel group study to evaluate the efficacy of two doses of CHF6001 add-on to maintenance triple therapy (free or fixed
combination of ICS, LABA, LAMA) to reduce the rate of moderate and severe exacerbations after
52 weeks of treatment in comparison with maintenance triple therapy (i.e. placebo arm). - Approximately 3980 subjects will be randomized in approximately 450 sites.
- The study entails three periods: a run-in period of 2-week duration, a treatment period of 52 weeks duration, and a post-treatment follow-up period of 1 week ±2 days.
- A total of 8 clinic visits (V0 to V7) as well as 2 phone calls will be performed during the study.
