Official title

A 12-week Multi-center, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo Controlled Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of NVA237 in Stable COPD Patients

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The study serves to determine whether the treatment of patients with stable, symptomatic Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) with the investigational drug NVA237 is efficient and safe. The efficacy and safety of the drug will be tested against a placebo treatment. The primary criterion to assess efficacy will be the difference between the serial lung function measurements of patients who have been treated for 12 weeks with NVA237 versus those that have received placebo treatment for 12 weeks. A serial lung function measurement (FEV1 testing) will be conducted and the "area under the curve" will be the measure for the ability to breathe.
