Influence Of Salmeterol Xinafoate/Fluticasone Propionate (50/500 µg BID) On The Course Of The Disease...

Pulmonary DiseaseChronic Obstructive

This is a 12 month randomized, open-label, parallel-group study to obtain data on the frequency and variability of exacerbations in severe and very severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) patients (Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) Stage III and IV) receiving salmeterol xinafoate and fluticasone propionate either in fixed combination (SFC) or from separate inhalers (Sal/FP) with standard therapy. 200 subjects will be enrolled in approximately 30 study centres in Germany. Data on health care utilisation will be collected to compare direct costs associated with COPD in these two groups. Baseline data will be collected for all subjects at Visit 1 and eligible subjects will be randomized to receive either SFC 50/500 µg bid (twice daily) as fixed combination or Sal 50 µg bid (twice daily) and FP 500 µg bid (twice daily) concurrently over 52 weeks. Subjects will return for study visits every two to three months until week 52. Additional telephone calls will be made between scheduled visits every 4 weeks. Assessments will include monitoring of frequency of exacerbations, health care utilisation (including emergency visits and hospitalizations) and rescue medication, lung function, drug compliance, health-related quality of life (SGRQ = St George's Respiratory Questionnaire) and safety.

Advair HFA For Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease(COPD)

Pulmonary DiseaseChronic Obstructive

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the FSC HFA MDI in subjects with COPD. The dose of FSC HFA MDI to be evaluated corresponds to the dose of FSC DISKUS (250/50mcg twice-daily) that is indicated for the treatment of COPD associated with chronic bronchitis in the US. This study will last up to approximately 15 weeks, and subjects will visit the clinic 5 times. Subjects will be given breathing tests and will record their peak expiratory flow measurements daily on diary cards. All study related medicines and medical examinations will be provided at no cost. The FSC HFA MDI used in this study has been approved by FDA for use in asthma while the FSC 250/50mcg DISKUS has been approved for use in asthma and COPD.

Arm Training in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Patients with chronic lung disease often report shortness of breath when they use their arms for simple activities of daily living such as dressing, lifting, shaving, bathing and brushing their hair and teeth. The best type of arm training for these patients is still unknown. The objectives of this study are to: develop a feasible and safe arm training program (ATP) for these patients; examine the effects of this ATP on quality of life, arm function, arm exercise capacity and symptoms during activities of daily living; examine the effects of ATP on breathing responses during arm exercises.

A Study to Assess the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of Inhaled Doses of GSK233705 and GW642444 in...

Pulmonary DiseaseChronic Obstructive

GW642444 and GSK233705 are in development for treatment of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. Development of these two inhaled drugs as a combination therapy would have potential for improved patient benefit as they both work through different mechanisms and the combined bronchodilatory effect might be additive. This study will look at the this combination, for the first time, in healthy subjects.

Effectiveness and Safety of BIO-11006 Inhalation Solution to Treat the Overproduction of Mucus and...

COPDChronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

The symptoms associated with COPD include overproduction of mucus and inflammation in the lungs. Overproduction of mucus results in impaired lung function and it encourages bacterial growth and associated COPD exacerbations. Therefore, a treatment that inhibits mucus overproduction or blocks inflammation could benefit COPD patients. The drug under evaluation in this study, BIO-11006 Inhalation Solution, is a new drug that may inhibit overproduction of mucus and may have important anti-inflammatory properties.
