Pharmacokinetic, Safety and Tolerability Study of Aclidinium/Formoterol Fixed Dose Combination and Formoterol in Patients With Moderate to Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

The purpose of this Phase II study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of aclidinium/formoterol fixed dose combination (FDC 400/12 μg via the Almirall Inhaler and formoterol 12 μg via the Foradil® Aerolizer®, both administered twice daily for five days to patients with moderate to severe COPD.

Inclusion criteria

  • Current or former cigarette smokers with a cigarette smoking history of at least 10 pack-years
  • A diagnosis of stable moderate to severe COPD and stable airway obstruction as defined by the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease guidelines and stable airway obstruction.

Exclusion criteria

Treatment and study plan

Aclidinium/formoterol 400/12μg

Drug

Aclidinium/formoterol 400/12μg fixed dose combination (FDC), one inhalation twice daily (morning and evening) for 4 days, then one inhalation (morning) on Day 5 via the Almirall inhaler

Formoterol

Drug

Formoterol 12 μg one inhalation twice daily (morning and evening) for 4 days, then one inhalation (morning) on Day 5 via the Foradil® Aerolizer®

Other names: Foradil® Aerolizer®

Primary outcomes

  1. Area Under the Formoterol Plasma Concentration Versus Time Curve (AUC) Over Dosing Interval at Steady State

    Time frame: Day 1: 0, 5, 15 and 30 min and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours (5 min before PM dose) and 5 and 15 min post PM dose; Days 2-4: 0, 5 and 15 min post dose; Day 5: 0, 5, 15 and 30 min and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours (post AM dose)

    The standard deviation of the measure is expressed as the coefficient of variation (%)

  2. Maximum Formoterol Plasma Drug Concentration (Cmax) at Steady State

    Time frame: Day 1: 0, 5, 15 and 30 min and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours (5 min before PM dose) and 5 and 15 min post PM dose; Days 2-4: 0, 5 and 15 min post dose; Day 5: 0, 5, 15 and 30 min and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours (post AM dose)

    The standard deviation of the measure is expressed as the coefficient of variation (%)

  3. Maximum Formoterol Plasma Drug Concentration (Cmax) Following a Single Dose

    Time frame: Day 1: 0, 5, 15 and 30 min and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours (5 min before PM dose) and 5 and 15 min post PM dose

    The standard deviation of the measure is expressed as the coefficient of variation (%)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Area Under the Formoterol Plasma Concentration Versus Time Curve (AUC) Over Dosing Interval Following a Single Dose

    Time frame: Day 1: 0, 5, 15 and 30 min and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours (5 min before PM dose) and 5 and 15 min post PM dose

    The standard deviation of the measure is expressed as the coefficient of variation (%)
