Who can take part
AI summary
From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.
The trial is looking for adults aged 40 to 80 with COPD that is not well controlled, who have had flare-ups despite triple inhaler treatment and have a high blood eosinophil count.
- Age
- 40 to 80 years
- Sex
- Men and women can both join.
- Disease stage
- COPD diagnosed by a doctor for at least 1 year, with post-bronchodilator FEV1 between 20% and 70% of the predicted value and FEV1/FVC below 0.70. At least 2 moderate or at least 1 severe flare-up in the past year. Chronic Airways Assessment Test (CAAT) score of 10 or more.
- Earlier treatment
- Must have taken triple COPD therapy (ICS+LABA+LAMA) for at least 12 weeks in a row. Cannot have had any biologic therapy or systemic immunosuppressant within 4 months or 5 half-lives before screening.
- Biomarker or test result
- Blood eosinophil count of 150 cells/μL or more.
Main reasons for not taking part
- Asthma, including childhood asthma, or asthma-COPD overlap syndrome
- Significant lung disease other than COPD
- Long-term oxygen therapy above 4.0 L/min, or needing more than 2.0 L/min to keep oxygen saturation above 88% at rest
- Active or incompletely treated tuberculosis
- Current or past cancer
