PrimaryChange From Baseline in Trough Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second (FEV1) at Week 24Baseline to Week 24
FEV1 is a measure of lung function and is defined as the maximal amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled in one second. Trough FEV1 at Week 24 was defined as the FEV1 values obtained prior to morning dose of the study treatment. Baseline was defined as the value obtained predose (0 minutes) on Day 1. Change from Baseline was calculated as the pre-dose measurement at Week 24 minus the Baseline value. The analysis was performed using a mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) method including covariates of treatment group, smoking status (screening), geographical region, visit, baseline, baseline by visit and treatment by visit interactions. ITT Population comprised of all randomized subjects excluding those who were randomized in error. Only participants with analyzable data at the given time point were analyzed.
PrimaryChange From Baseline in Trough Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second (FEV1) at Week 52Baseline to Week 52
FEV1 is a measure of lung function and is defined as the maximal amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled in one second. Trough FEV1 at Week 52 was defined as the FEV1 values obtained prior to morning dose of the study treatment. Baseline was defined as the value obtained predose (0 minutes) on Day 1. Change from Baseline was calculated as the pre-dose measurement at Week 24 minus the Baseline value. The analysis was performed using a mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) method including covariates of treatment group, smoking status (screening), geographical region, visit, baseline, baseline by visit and treatment by visit interactions. Extension Population: all participants in the ITT Population who were enrolled into the subset of participants with extension to 52 weeks.
PrimaryChange From Baseline in St George's Respiratory Questionnaire-Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD; SGRQ) Total Score for COPD Participants at Week 24Baseline to Week 24
The SGRQ-C is a disease-specific questionnaire designed to measure the impact of respiratory disease and its treatment on a COPD participant's health-related quality of life (HRQoL). SGRQ-C total score was converted to SGRQ total score (ranging from 0-100) according to manual. In addition to an overall summary (total) score, scores for the individual domains of Symptoms, Activity, and Impacts (each ranging from 0-100) are produced. A decrease in score indicated improvement in quality of life. The minimum clinically important difference (MCID) for this instrument is a 4-point improvement (decrease from Baseline). Baseline was defined as the value obtained predose on Day 1. Change from Baseline was calculated as total score at Week 24 minus the Baseline value. The analysis for SGRQ total score was performed using a MMRM method including covariates of treatment group, smoking status (screening), geographical region, visit, baseline, baseline by visit and treatment by visit interactions
PrimaryChange From Baseline in St George's Respiratory Questionnaire-COPD; SGRQ Total Score for COPD Participants at Week 52Baseline to Week 52
The SGRQ-C is a disease-specific questionnaire designed to measure the impact of respiratory disease and its treatment on a COPD participant's health-related quality of life (HRQoL). SGRQ-C total score was converted to SGRQ total score (ranging from 0-100) according to manual. In addition to an overall summary (total) score, scores for the individual domains of Symptoms, Activity, and Impacts (each ranging from 0-100) are produced. A decrease in score indicated improvement in quality of life. The minimum clinically important difference (MCID) for this instrument is a 4-point improvement (decrease from Baseline). Baseline was defined as the value obtained predose on Day 1. Change from Baseline was calculated as total score at Week 52 minus the Baseline value. The analysis for SGRQ total score was performed using a MMRM method including covariates of treatment group, smoking status (screening), geographical region, visit, baseline, baseline by visit and treatment by visit interactions.
SecondaryTransitional Dyspnea Index (TDI) Focal Score Expressed as Least Square Mean at Week 24Week 24
The TDI measures change in the participant's dyspnoea from Baseline. The scores in both indexes depend on ratings for three different categories: functional impairment; magnitude of task; and magnitude of effort. Each of these scales had a possible score ranging from -6 (major deterioration) to +6 (major improvement). TDI focal score was calculated as the sum of the three individual scores and then divided by 2 (so the range of the TDI focal score is -9 to +9). TDI was measured at Week 4 and Week 24. Analysis performed using a repeated measures model with covariates of treatment group, smoking status (screening), geographical region, visit, BDI focal score, BDI focal score by visit and treatment by visit interactions.
SecondaryTransitional Dyspnea Index (TDI) Focal Score Expressed as Least Square Mean at Week 52Week 52
The TDI measures change in the participant's dyspnoea from Baseline. The scores in both indexes depend on ratings for three different categories: functional impairment; magnitude of task; and magnitude of effort. Each of these scales had a possible score ranging from -6 (major deterioration) to +6 (major improvement). TDI focal score was calculated as the sum of the three individual scores and then divided by 2 (so the range of the TDI focal score is -9 to +9). TDI was measured at Weeks 4, 24 and 52. Analysis performed using a repeated measures model with covariates of treatment group, smoking status (screening), geographical region, visit, BDI focal score, BDI focal score by visit and treatment by visit interactions
SecondaryDaily Activity Question Percentage of Days Reporting a Score of 2 up to Week 24Up to Week 24
Participants were asked to complete the daily activity question as part of the eDiary, which included the following options: 0: fewer activities, 1: no affect on my activities, and 2: more activities than usual. Daily activity question percentage of days with score of 2 over Weeks 1-24 was analysed using an ANCOVA model with covariates of treatment group, smoking status (screening), geographical region and baseline.
SecondaryDaily Activity Question Percentage of Days Reporting a Score of 2 up to Week 52Up to Week 52
Participants were asked to complete the daily activity question as aprt of the eDiary, which included the following options: 0: fewer activities, 1: no affect on my activities, and 2: more activities than usual. Daily activity question percentage of days with score of 2 over Weeks 1-24 was analysed using an ANCOVA model with covariates of treatment group, smoking status (screening), geographical region and baseline.
SecondaryMean Annual On-treatment Moderate and/or Severe COPD Exacerbations up to Week 24Up to Week 24
The mean annual moderate and severe COPD exacerbations during the treatment (trt) period (per participant \[par.\] per year) was assessed. The event rate for exacerbations was calculated as the number of events x 1000 divided by the total participant exposure during the time-period of interest. An exacerbation of COPD, is defined as the worsening of two or more major symptoms (dyspnea, sputum volume, sputum purulence \[color\]) for at least two consecutive days; or the worsening of any one major symptom together with any one of the minor symptoms (sore throat, cold, fever without other cause, increased cough, increased wheeze) for at least two consecutive days. Analysis performed using a generalised linear model assuming a negative binomial distribution and covariates of treatment group, exacerbation history (0, 1, \>=2 moderate/severe), smoking status (screening), geographical region and post-bronchodilator percent predicted FEV1 (day 1).
