Primary outcomes

    Time frame: 1 hour (h) and 10 minutes (min) prior to am dose on the first day of treatment (baseline) and -30 min (zero time), 30 min, 60 min, 2 hour (h) , 3 h, 4 h, 6 h, 8 h, 10 h, 11 h 50 min relative to am dose after six weeks of treatment

    Response was defined as change from baseline. Study baseline FEV1 was defined as the mean of the -1 hour and -10 minute measurements performed in the morning of the first treatment visit, just prior to administration of the morning dose of randomized treatment. Means are adjusted using a mixed effects model with center, treatment and period as fixed effects and patient within center as random. FEV1 AUC 0-12h was calculated from 0-12 hours post-dose using the trapezoidal rule, divided by the observation time (12h) to report in litres.

  2. FEV1 Area Under Curve 12-24h (AUC 12-24h) Response After Six Weeks of Treatment

    Time frame: 1 h and 10 min prior to am dose on the first day of treatment (baseline) and 12 h 30 min, 13 h, 14 h, 22 h, 23 h, and 23 h 50 min relative to am dose after six weeks of treatment
