Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who have had a COPD exacerbation requiring systemic corticosteroids and/or antibiotics and/or hospitalization in the 6 weeks prior to screening

  • Patients who have had a respiratory tract infection within 6 weeks prior to screening
  • Patients who require oxygen therapy for chronic hypoxemia, are receiving bronchodilators or other medications for COPD that are dosed once daily, are unable to follow instruction on rescue albuterol use during the study, or are at risk deterioration of COPD with study procedures. Patients with concomitant pulmonary disease

Arm Description

In treatment 1: participants received indacaterol 75 µg one dose delivered via single-dose dry-powder inhaler (SDDPI) followed by treatment 2: placebo one dose via SDDPI between day 7 and 10. Albuterol was available for use as rescue medication.

In treatment 1, participants received placebo one dose delivered via SDDPI followed by treatment 2: indacaterol 75 µg one dose delivered via SDDPI between Day 7 and Day 10. Albuterol was available for use as rescue medication.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Time (in Minutes) to Patient's Perception of Onset of Effect
Defined as the first time point that the patient responds "yes" to the following self-administered question: "I feel that the drug is working in improving my breathing?"
