Further study details as provided by Otsuka Pharmaceutical, Inc., Philippines:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • [Efficacy] Improvement spirometry (FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC, 6 MWD, TDI) and SGRQ at 2 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • [Safety] HR (Heart Rate) and BP (Blood Pressure)
  • Incidence of adverse reactions and changes

Estimated Enrollment: 50
Study Start Date: May 2006
Estimated Study Completion Date: April 2008
Detailed Description:

This study aims to determine the efficacy and safety of tiotropium plus procaterol in comparison to tiotropium plus placebo in Filipino patients seen in Manila, with moderate COPD.

After a 1-week wash-out period, 6-minute walk test, and St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) will then be administered prior to a run-in period of 1 week wherein all patients will be started on tiotropium alone. The patients will then be randomly allocated to either of the two arms for a two-week treatment, followed by one week washout, and crossed-over to the other treatment for another two weeks. The procaterol or placebo dose is given 2 hrs after the tiotropium dose.
