  • Patients with concomitant pulmonary disease
  • Patients with diabetes Type I or uncontrolled diabetes Type II
  • Patients with a history of long QT syndrome or whose QTc interval (Bazett's) measured at screening or randomization is prolonged

Treatment and study plan

Indacaterol 150 μg

Drug

Indacaterol was supplied in powder filled capsules together with a single-dose dry-powder inhaler (SDDPI) device.

Placebo to Indacaterol

Drug

Placebo to indacaterol was supplied in powder filled capsules together with a single-dose dry-powder inhaler (SDDPI) device.

Primary outcomes

  1. Trough Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) 24 Hours Post-dose at the End of the Study (Week 12 + 1 Day, Day 85)

    Time frame: 24 hours post-dose at the end of the study (Week 12 + 1 day, Day 85)

    FEV1 was measured with spirometry conducted according to internationally accepted standards. Trough FEV1 was defined as the average of measurements made 23 hours 10 minutes and 23 hours 45 minutes post-dose at the end of treatment. The analysis included baseline FEV1, FEV1 pre-dose and 30 minutes post-dose of salbutamol during screening, and FEV1 pre-dose and 1 hour post-dose of ipratropium during screening as covariates.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Trough Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) 24 Hours Post-dose on Day 2

    Time frame: 24 hours post-dose on Day 2

    FEV1 was measured with spirometry conducted according to internationally accepted standards. Trough FEV1 was defined as the average of measurements made 23 hours 10 minutes and 23 hours 45 minutes post-dose at the end of treatment. The analysis included baseline FEV1, FEV1 pre-dose and 30 minutes post-dose of salbutamol during screening, and FEV1 pre-dose and 1 hour post-dose of ipratropium during screening as covariates.
