Filter by:The primary objective of this trial was to establish non-inferiority of lung function response to two doses [25 μg (1 capsule) and 50 μg (2 capsules of 25 μg)] salmeterol, administered as the xinafoate salt, in an inhalation powder delivered from hard polyethylene (PE) capsules via the HandiHaler® 2 compared to Serevent® Diskus® (salmeterol 50 μg, administered as the xinafoate salt) following single dose inhalation in patients with COPD. A hard capsule with half the strength (12.5 μg) was included to investigate a dose ordering effect. The secondary objectives were to characterize the pharmacokinetics of salmeterol inhalation powder delivered by HandiHaler® 2 from the PE hard capsule(s) and salmeterol xinafoate delivered by Serevent® Diskus®, and to compare the safety of the different pharmaceutical forms and/or doses.
This study is a prospective, non-interventional, cross-sectional multicenter survey. The aim is to better understand the current therapy pattern for anemia in chronic kidney disease (CKD) treated with erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) and not on-dialysis patient population in Israel. Participating physicians will be requested to complete a satisfaction survey for anemia treatment for eligible patients with CKD not on dialysis. The survey will be completed twice, once at study start and once at six months' follow-up.
Study to obtain further information on the tolerability and efficacy of Atrovent® unit dose vial 500 µg in the treatment of Chronic Obstructive Airways Disease under conditions of daily practice
This is a 12-week, multicentre, randomized, open-label, 2-arm, parallel-group study designed to compare the efficacy and safety of umeclidinium inhalation powder (62.5 mcg once daily [QD]) administered via a novel Dry Powder Inhaler (nDPI) with glycopyrronium (44 mcg QD) administered via a Breezhaler® inhaler in subjects with COPD over 12 weeks of treatment. At the end of the run-in period, eligible subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive umeclidinium 62.5 mcg administered via nDPI or glycopyrronium 44 mcg administered via BREEZHALER inhaler. There will be up to 8 clinic visits conducted on an outpatient basis at Pre-Screening (Visit 0), Screening (Visit 1), Randomization at Day 1 (Visit 2), and after Randomization at Day 2 (Visit 3), Day 28 (Visit 4), Day 56 (Visit 5), Day 84 (Visit 6) and Day 85 (Visit 7). The total duration of subject participation in the study will be approximately 15 weeks. The primary endpoint of the study is clinic visit trough FEV1 (forced expiratory volume in one second) on treatment Day 85. All subjects will have spirometry performed at clinic Visits 1 though 7. Trough spirometry will be obtained 23 and 24 hours after the previous day's dose of open-label study medication at Visits 3 to 7. BREEZHALER is a registered trademark of Novartis AG.
Study to assess the safety of two-week administration of 80 and 160 mcg of ipratropium bromide as delivered by the RESPIMAT® device and as determined by 24 hours ambulatory ECG monitoring in COPD patients. To assess the overall safety of the two doses of ipratropium bromide as delivered by the RESPIMAT® device when administered over a two-week period.
The objective of this study was to determine the pharmacokinetic comparability of 84 µg ipratropium bromide HFA-134a inhalation aerosol and 84 µg ATROVENT® CFC Inhalation Aerosol in COPD patients
