Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two doses of CHF6001 (Tanimilast), as add-on to maintenance triple therapy in the target patient population.
Is Tanimilast a promising drug for COPD?Yes, Tanimilast, also known as CHF6001, is a promising drug for COPD. It has shown positive effects on reducing inflammation, which is important for managing COPD symptoms.126711
What safety data is available for Tanimilast (CHF6001 DPI) in COPD treatment?The provided research does not contain safety data for Tanimilast (CHF6001 DPI) in COPD treatment. It focuses on the safety and efficacy of glycopyrrolate/formoterol fumarate metered dose inhaler (GFF MDI) and budesonide/glycopyrrolate/formoterol fumarate (BGF MDI) in COPD patients.25789
What data supports the idea that Tanimilast Add-On Therapy for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease is an effective treatment?The available research does not provide specific data on Tanimilast Add-On Therapy for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. Instead, it focuses on other treatments like glycopyrrolate/formoterol fumarate combinations, which are shown to be effective for managing the condition. Without direct data on Tanimilast, we cannot conclude its effectiveness compared to these alternatives.234710
Do I have to stop taking my current medications for this trial?The trial requires participants to continue their current maintenance triple therapy for COPD. There is no mention of stopping other medications, so the protocol does not specify any changes to other medications.

Eligibility Criteria

This trial is for adults over 40 with COPD and chronic bronchitis who are current or ex-smokers. They must have had a moderate to severe flare-up in the past year, be on triple therapy for at least 3 months, and not have emphysema, asthma, significant neurological diseases, recent roflumilast treatment, serious lab abnormalities, α-1 antitrypsin deficiency-related COPD, major heart issues or liver impairment.

Inclusion Criteria

I have smoked at least 10 pack-years.
I am 40 or older with COPD and chronic bronchitis.
My lung function is significantly reduced.
I had at least one severe flare-up of my COPD in the last year.

Exclusion Criteria

I have COPD, emphysema, or a combination of lung conditions.
I have a serious heart condition.
I have a respiratory condition that is not COPD.
I have been diagnosed with depression, anxiety, or have had thoughts of suicide.
I recovered from lung cancer or any cancer less than a year ago.
I have a serious brain or nerve condition.
I currently have asthma.
My COPD is caused by α-1 antitrypsin deficiency.
I have moderate to severe liver problems.

Treatment Details

The study tests two doses of CHF6001 (Tanimilast) added to standard triple therapy against a placebo. It aims to see if Tanimilast can improve symptoms in people with COPD and chronic bronchitis over one year.
