Official title
Efficacy of Nebulized Long-Acting Bronchodilators (Formoterol and Revefenacin) vs. Short-Acting Bronchodilators (Albuterol and Ipratropium) in Patients Presenting to the Emergency Department With Acute Exacerbation of COPD (ECOPD): A Phase IV, Prospective, Randomized, Blinded, Parallel-group Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The primary aim is to determine whether nebulized Formoterol twice daily plus Revefenacin once daily is non-inferior to standard-of-care nebulized Albuterol and Ipratropium therapy four times daily in relieving dyspnea among patients with ECOPD presenting to the ED and requiring hospitalization, as measured by the Modified Borg Dyspnea Scale. The hypothesize is that patients in the ED for ECOPD, improvement in symptoms, safety, and length of ED or hospital stay after treatment with nebulized Revefenacin and Formoterol will be non-inferior to the Albuterol and Ipratropium combination. The long-acting bronchodilator regimen will provide comparable symptom control with fewer total drug doses compared with standard treatment with short-acting bronchodilators, namely, nebulized Albuterol and Ipratropium. To the best of our knowledge, this will be the first prospective, randomized, double-blind investigation to compare a combination of long-acting nebulized LAMA/LABA bronchodilators with a standard-of-care combination of short-acting nebulized SAMA/SABA bronchodilators in patients with an ECOPD in the ED/hospital setting.
