About this trial

This study will evaluate the effect of triple ICS/LAMA/LABA therapy with BGF MDI 320/14.4/9.6 μg on cardiopulmonary outcomes relative to LAMA/LABA therapy with GFF MDI 14.4/9.6 μg in a population with COPD and elevated cardiopulmonary risk.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Time to first severe cardiac or COPD event

Evaluate the effect of combination triple therapy (BGF MDI 320/14.4/9.6 μg) compared with dual bronchodilator therapy (GFF MDI 14.4/9.6 μg) on cardiopulmonary outcomes.

Time frame
Up to 3 years

Secondary outcomes

1

Time to first severe COPD exacerbation event

Evaluate the effect of combination triple therapy (BGF MDI 320/14.4/9.6 μg) compared with dual bronchodilator therapy (GFF MDI 14.4/9.6 μg) on severe COPD exacerbations.

Time frame
Up to 3 years
2

Time to first severe cardiac event

Evaluate the effect of combination triple therapy (BGF MDI 320/14.4/9.6 μg) compared with dual bronchodilator therapy (GFF MDI 14.4/9.6 μg) on severe cardiac outcomes.

Time frame
Up to 3 years
3

Time to cardiopulmonary death

Evaluate the effect of combination triple therapy (BGF MDI 320/14.4/9.6 μg) compared with dual bronchodilator therapy (GFF MDI 14.4/9.6 μg) on cardiopulmonary deaths.

Time frame
Up to 3 years
4

Moderate/severe COPD exacerbation rate

Evaluate the effect of combination triple therapy (BGF MDI 320/14.4/9.6 μg) compared with dual bronchodilator therapy (GFF MDI 14.4/9.6 μg) on moderate/severe COPD exacerbations.

Time frame
Over time, up 3 years

Other outcomes

1

Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and Adverse Events leading to discontinuation (DAEs), Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESIs) of pneumonia leading to hospitalization or death

To assess the safety and tolerability of BGF MDI and GFF MDI

Time frame
Up to 3 years
