ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Moderate to Severe Exacerbation (Defined as Requiring Treatment With Systemic Corticosteroids and/or Antibiotics in the Community or Hospital or Hospitalisation).0-48 weeks
Where a COPD exacerbation is defined by symptomatic worsening of COPD requiring: * Use of systemic corticosteroids for at least 3 days; a single depot injectable dose of corticosteroids will be considered equivalent to a 3-day course of systemic corticosteroids; and/or * Use of antibiotics and/or * inpatient hospitalisation or death due to COPD
SecondaryAdverse Event Rate in the 48 Weeks of the Trial From First DoseWeeks 0 , 4, 12, 24, 26, 48Number of Participants with Adverse Events in the 48 Weeks of the Trial From First Dose
SecondarySerious Adverse Event Rate in the 48 Weeks of the Trial From First DoseWeeks 0 , 4, 12, 24, 26, 48Number of Participants with Serious Adverse Events in the 48 Weeks of the Trial From First Dose
SecondarySt George's Respiratory Questionnaire for COPD Patients (SGRQ-C) Total ScoreWeeks 0, 4, 12, 24, 36, 48
Patient reported outcome (PRO). To evaluate health status; designed to measure health impairment in patients with asthma and COPD. It is in two parts. Part I produces the Symptoms score, and Part 2 the Activity and Impact scores. A Total score is also produced. The Total score is calculated by summing the weights to all the positive responses in each component. This score is then put onto the scale 0 to 100 by dividing by the Total possible sum (3201.9)- and times by 100. A score of 0 would represent the best health and a score of 100 would represent the worst possible state of the patient.
SecondaryCOPD Assessment Test (CAT) (Questionnaire)Weeks 0, 4, 12, 24, 36, 48
Patient reported outcome (PRO). To evaluate health status: evaluation and rehabilitation education guidance on the respiratory and motor functions of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. CAT score is made by summing the score to eight questions on COPD. For each, the person with COPD picks the number between 0-5 that reflects their response. A zero indicates no effect on quality of life, whereas a 5 suggests a very significant effect.The CAT has a scoring range of 0-40, with 40 indicating the most severe COPD and 0 being the least severe COPD. A change of 2 units suggests a meaningful difference. This test should be used in conjunction with the mMRC and forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) to determine COPD health assessment of participants.
SecondaryModified Medical Research Council (mMRC) Dyspnea ScaleScreening, weeks 0, 4, 12, 24, 36, 48
Patient reported outcome (PRO). To evaluate respiratory breathlessness symptoms (Grade 0-4, with Grade 0 being breathlessness with strenuous exercise to Grade 4 being breathlessness for daily activities like dressing).
SecondaryVisual Analogue Score (VAS) Total and Individual Dyspnoea, Cough, Sputum Production (100mm) ScoresWeeks 0, 4, 12, 24, 36, 48
Patient reported outcome (PRO). To evaluate respiratory symptoms. The participant is asked to place a mark (X) on the scale at the point that best describes their health currently. Minimum score 0mm (better outcome), maximum score 100mm (worse outcome) for each section of the scale (dyspnoea, cough, sputum). The Total VAS score is the sum of the 3 scales, thus the minimum score is 0 (best outcome) and the maximum 300 (worst outcome).
SecondarySputum Purulence Colour CardScreening, week 12, 28, 36, 48The sputum purulence colour card using the Bronko test has values of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. Lower scores indicate better health.
SecondaryPre and Post Bronchodilator (BD) Spirometry - FEV1/FVC RatioWeek 0 and Week 48
To assess lung function. The participant will take a maximum inhalation, release maximum exhalation and then continue to exhale afterwards. They will then be treated with a bronchodilator. The spirometry test is then repeated to determine how much the bronchodilator medication helped with breathing. FEV1/FVC ratio will be calculated.
SecondaryPost BD Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1)Screening, Weeks 4, 12, 24, 36, 48To assess lung function. FEV1 is the volume of air that can forcibly be blown out in first 1 second, after full inspiration. Post BD Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1)
SecondaryBody Plethysmography ('Body Box') Total Lung Capacity and Residual VolumeWeek 0 and week 48
To assess lung function, i.e. the functional residual capacity of the lungs. The participant sits inside an airtight box, inhales or exhales to a particular volume (usually FRC), and then a shutter drops across their breathing tube. The participant makes respiratory efforts against the closed shutter, causing their chest volume to expand and decompressing the air in their lungs. The increase in their chest volume slightly reduces the box volume (the non-person volume of the box) and thus slightly increases the pressure in the box. Total Lung Capacity and Residual Volume measured.
SecondaryBlood Inflammatory Cell DifferentialsWeeks 0, 4, 12, 24, 36, 48To assess inflammation at exacerbation events. White blood cells, eosinophils and neutrophils will be measured.
SecondarySputum Inflammatory Cell Differentials: EosinophilsWeeks 0, 4, 12, 24, 36, 48To assess inflammation at exacerbation events. Eosinophils cells will be measured.
SecondaryPre and Post Bronchodilator (BD) Spirometry- FEV1 and FVCWeek 0 and Week 48
To assess lung function. The participant will take a maximum inhalation, release maximum exhalation and then continue to exhale afterwards. They will then be treated with a bronchodilator. The spirometry test is then repeated to determine how much the bronchodilator medication helped with breathing. FEV1 and FVC will be measured.
SecondaryPre and Post Bronchodilator (BD) Spirometry- FEV1 Predicted and FVC PredictedWeek 0 and Week 48
To assess lung function. The participant will take a maximum inhalation, release maximum exhalation and then continue to exhale afterwards. They will then be treated with a bronchodilator. The spirometry test is then repeated to determine how much the bronchodilator medication helped with breathing. FEV1 % predicted and FVC % predicted will be measured.
SecondaryBody Plethysmography ('Body Box') - Residual Volume/Total Lung Capacity RatioWeek 0 and week 48
To assess lung function, i.e. the functional residual capacity of the lungs. The participant sits inside an airtight box, inhales or exhales to a particular volume (usually FRC), and then a shutter drops across their breathing tube. The participant makes respiratory efforts against the closed shutter, causing their chest volume to expand and decompressing the air in their lungs. The increase in their chest volume slightly reduces the box volume (the non-person volume of the box) and thus slightly increases the pressure in the box. Residual Volume/Total Lung Capacity ratio will be calculated. RV/TLC ratio: this is the residual volume (RV) to total lung capacity (TLC). It is calculated as a percentage as follows: RV/TLC ×100.
SecondarySputum Inflammatory Cell Differentials: MacrophagesWeeks 0, 4, 12, 24, 36, 48To assess inflammation at exacerbation events. Sputum inflammatory cell differentials: Macrophages
SecondarySputum Inflammatory Cell Differentials: EpitheliumWeeks 0, 4, 12, 24, 36, 48To assess inflammation at exacerbation events. Epithelium cells will be measured.
OtherNon-contrast Thoracic CT Derived Outcomes [Exploratory Outcome]Screening and week 48Quantitative measures of airway geometry and densitometry. Mean lung density expiratory/inspiratory \[MLD E/I\] (small airway), % wall area \[WA\] and LA (larger airways) will be measured.
OtherSputum Mediator Profiling (Biomarkers) [Exploratory Outcome]Weeks 0, 4, 12, 24, 36, 48Various biomarkers of inflammation will be measured in sputum.
