Primary Outcome Measures

Area under the plasma concentrationafter versus drug dose

Secondary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Participants with Adverse Events of Interest
Adverse events of interest to evaluate tolerability are defined as diarrhea, nausea, headache, decreased appetite, insomnia and abdominal pain.
Change in Pre-bronchodilator Forced Expiratory Volume in First Second (FEV1) during the down titration period
FEV1 is the amount of air which can be forcibly exhaled from the lungs in the first second of a forced exhalation. Pulmonary function testing will be performed using spirometry prior to taking study medication

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
To evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of different dose roflumilast in China COPD patient.
Detailed Description
Roflumilast is a product which has been approved for the treatment of severe chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD) and its approved dose is 500μg once daily. This study is primarily designed to see whether alternation in this dose can improve tolerability of Roflumilast in COPD patients. Therefore one in three patients will start roflumilast therapy at a lower dose of 250μg/375μg once daily, another one in three will only take the 500μg tablet every day (and one placebo every day). Furthermore, the study will evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of different dose roflumilast in China COPD patient. Lastly, the study will investigate what the body does to roflumilast. Patients with a history of COPD for at least last 12 months and a former smoker or current smoker with history of at least 10 pack years will be invited to participate. The Randomization visit is considered the Baseline visit and for participants that discontinue the Main Period and continue into the Down-Titration Period Day 1 of Down Titration is considered BaselineDT.
