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 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…
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 *…
