Summary
This trial aims to see if adding an ICS to a COPD treatment can improve breathing by testing how well blood vessels dilate in response to albuterol.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for former smokers aged 40-80 with a physician's diagnosis of COPD, who have been on a LAMA/LABA regimen for at least one month. They should not be current smokers or have used ICS recently. Participants must not have had certain vaccinations, acute COPD exacerbations, respiratory infections recently, or specific cardiovascular issues.
What is being tested?
The study tests if adding an inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) to existing treatment with LABA and LAMA improves lung blood vessel function in stable COPD patients. This response is measured after inhaling albuterol over four weeks.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects from the ICS may include sore throat, hoarseness, thrush (a fungal infection in the mouth), coughing, headaches and vision changes. Side effects vary by individual.
