• Diagnosis of COPD per Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) guidelines for at least 6 months prior to screening and anticipated to remain on stable therapy for the duration of the study
• Post-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) ≥ 40% predicted
• No changes in COPD medications within 30 days prior to randomization

• Chronic lung disease other than COPD such as: asthma, cystic fibrosis or fibrotic disease, α-1-antitrypsin deficiency, interstitial lung disease, pulmonary thromboembolic disease, or bronchiectasis
• Chronic use of systemic corticosteroids and/or treatment with systemic corticosteroids for an acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD) event, or other medical condition not requiring hospitalization, within 90 days of randomization.
• Treatment with antibiotics for an AECOPD event, or other medical condition not requiring hospitalization within 90 days of randomization, or any minor medical event not requiring hospitalization within 14 days of randomization.
• Treatment with any marketed or investigational biologic within 5 half-lives of the molecule or if unknown within 90 days of screening
• Individuals currently on nonbiologic immune modulator medications such as: azathioprine, cyclosporine, hydroxychloroquine, leflunomide, methotrexate, mycophenolate mofetil, sulfasalazine, tofacitinib, within 90 days of randomization
