About

This is a Randomized, Phase III, Two-period, Open-label, Chronic-dosing (7 Days), Multi-center, Crossover Study to Assess the Efficacy of PT003 in Subjects with Moderate to Severe COPD with and without a Valved Holding Chamber.

Enrollment: 80 patients

Ages: 40 to 80 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

• Pre- and post-bronchodilator FEV1/FVC ratio of <0.70
• Post-bronchodilator FEV1 must be <80% predicted normal value, calculated using NHANES III reference equations, and the measured FEV1 must also be ≥30% of predicted normal value.

Exclusion criteria

• Significant diseases other than COPD, i.e., disease or condition which, in the opinion of the Investigator, may put the subject at risk because of participation in the study or may influence either the results of the study or the subject's ability to participate in the study.

• Subjects who have cancer that has not been in complete remission for at least five years.
• Subjects with abnormal liver function tests defined as AST, ALT, or total bilirubin ≥1.5 times upper limit of normal at Screening and on repeat testing.
• Subjects with a diagnosis of angle closure glaucoma will be excluded, regardless of whether or not they have been treated. Subjects with a diagnosis of open angle glaucoma who have intraocular pressure controlled with medication(s) are eligible.
