Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of the current study is to compare the efficacy and safety of Salmeterol/Fluticasone 50/500 mcg Inhalation Powder treatment administered via Capsair twice daily and original product Seretide Diskus 500 mcg Inhalation Powder treatment twice daily in patients with moderate-severe COPD.

Spirometric measurements will be performed at 12 different time points at pre-treatment and post-treatment (5. min, 15. min, 30. min, 1. hr, 2. hr, 3.hr, 4.hr, 6.hr, 8.hr, 10.hr and 12.hr) during the treatment visits of 11-weeks study period.

Description:

The aim of the current study is to compare the efficacy and safety of Salmeterol/Fluticasone 50/500 mcg Inhalation Powder treatment administered via Capsair twice daily and original product Seretide Diskus 500 mcg Inhalation Powder treatment twice daily in patients with moderate-severe COPD.

Patients who met all the inclusion criteria will enter a 1-week run-in period with the length determine by the specific medication, during which their usual treatment will be stopped and they will receive salbutamol as required.

Following run-in period, patients will be randomly assigned to receive Salmeterol/Fluticasone 50/500 mcg as dry powder capsule for inhalation by Capsair or Salmeterol/Fluticasone 50/500 mcg as dry powder for inhalation by Diskus twice daily for 8-weeks treatment period.

Patients will be evaluated at 6 consecutive visits: baseline (enrollment), screening, treatment (treatment initiation, after 4 and 8 weeks of treatment) and after treatment (will carry out by telephone two weeks following the last dose of study medication).

Spirometric measurements will be performed at 12 different time points at pre-treatment and post-treatment (5. min, 15. min, 30. min, 1. hr, 2. hr, 3.hr, 4.hr, 6.hr, 8.hr, 10.hr and 12.hr) during the treatment visits of 11-weeks study period.

Safety will be assessed through vital signs, adverse events, serious adverse events and all cause mortality.

Primary	Mean percentage (%) change from baseline in	Spirometric measurements will be performed at 12 different time points at pre-treatment and post-treatment (5. min, 15. min, 30. min, 1. hr, 2. hr, 3.hr, 4.hr, 6.hr, 8.hr, 10.hr and 12.hr) during the treatment visits.	8-weeks treatment period after randomization
Primary	Comparison of FEV1 values at pre-dose and 2 hours post-dose	Spirometric measurement will be performed at pre-dose and 2 hours post-dose	8-weeks treatment period after randomization
Primary	FEV1 (AUC0-12) response [AUC: area under the curve; response defined as change from baseline]	Spirometric measurements will be performed at 12 different time points at pre-treatment and post-treatment (5. min, 15. min, 30. min, 1. hr, 2. hr, 3.hr, 4.hr, 6.hr, 8.hr, 10.hr and 12.hr) during the treatment visits.	8-weeks treatment period after randomization

Secondary	Mean change from baseline in transition dyspnea index (TDI) after 8-weeks treatment	Transition Dyspnea Index (TDI), a measure of the degree of breathlessness, captures changes from baseline. Baseline Dyspnea Index (BDI) score is based on three domains: functional impairment, magnitude of task and magnitude of effort.

It will be performed to evaluate quality of life of the patients by comparing pre-treatment and post-treatment values. The lowest possible value is zero and the highest 100. Higher values correspond to greater impairment in quality of life.	8-weeks treatment period after randomization
Secondary	Mean change from baseline in symptom severity and frequency (mean change from baseline in CAT score)	The COPD Assessment Test (CAT) is a questionnaire for people with COPD.
