About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

Eligibility Criteria

40 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • 40 years and older
  • Clinical diagnosis of COPD for greater than one year
  • History of cigarette smoking

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Other lung diseases (not including COPD), such as asthma
  • A condition that could interfere with your ability to perform exercise tests

    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Standardized Dyspnea Score at Isotime During Exercise
    Difference in standardized dyspnea rating at isotime during constant load exercise in patients with COPD between Fluticasone Propionate treatment and placebo treatment at the end of the treatment period. Isotime is the duration of the shortest exercise test on all treatment days (or the longest exercise time point common to all constant-load exercise tests). The standardized dyspnea score will be measured with the modified 10-point Borg Scale (0 [Best] - 10 [Worst] ).

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    Exercise Endurance Time
    Difference in exercise endurance time between Fluticasone Propionate treatment and placebo treatment at the end of the treatment period.
