This study is designed to demonstrate non inferiority of 150 *g o.d. of indacaterol versus tiotropium 18 *g o.d. with respect to 24 hour post dose (trough) FEV1 after 12 weeks of treatment.
Primary objective: To demonstrate that QVA149 (110/50 *g o.d.) is superior to NVA237 (50 *g o.d.) with regard to the rate of moderate to severe COPD exacerbations during 64 weeks of treatmentSecondary objectives: To demonstrate that QVA149 (110/50 *…
To demonstrate superiority of tiotropium vs. salmeterol in reducing exacerbations which are an important patient outcome because they are a major cause of morbidity from COPD. In addition, they are associated with a more rapid decline in lung…
The challenging aim of this three-year STREP project is to breakthrough with research that addresses the needs of those with dementia, particularly those with mild dementia in Europe. At about 2% of the elderly population, this comes to around 1,900…
The study is designed to compare the 24-h spirometry profile of two doses of indacaterol (150o.d. and 300 *g o.d.) with that of placebo (o.d.) and with tiotropium (18 *g o.d.) as an activecontrol in patients with COPD.
To demonstrate the superiority of indacaterol 150 µg o.d. in combination with tiotropium 18 µg o.d. versus tiotropium 18 µg o.d. with respect to standardized area under the curve (AUC) for forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) between 5 min *…
With intervention with bronchodilators (usual care bronchodilators for COPD subjects), in one study histamine and in one study steroids, we want to investigate the respons on inspiratory lung function parameter like the FIV1 and also investigate…
Primary objective: To demonstrate the superiority of QVA 110/50 µg compared to both QAB149 150 µg and NVA237 50 µg in terms of trough FEV1 (mean of 23 h 15 min and 23 h 45 min post-dose) following 26 weeks of treatment in patients with moderate to…
Assess feasibility of development of skin colour independent assessment of skin AGE accumulation by measurement of skin autofluorescence in persons with dark skin
Efficacy and safety.
This research proposal aims to assess the anti-inflammatory effects after 6 weeks treatment with tiotropium compared to placebo in patients with stable COPD.
