This study will assess and compare the safety and tolerability of inhaled TPI 1020 (repeated nominal doses; 500 μg BID x 6 weeks) versus inhaled budesonide (repeated doses; 800 μg BID x 6 weeks) and a matching placebo. Pharmacodynamic (PD) activity on FEV1, sputum and blood cells and cytokines will also be studied.
A multi-centre, randomized, placebo and active-controlled, 6-week study of inhaled TPI 1020, inhaled budesonide or matching placebo (random allocation of eligible patients to the three treatments at a ratio of 3:3:1), to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacodynamic activity of TPI 1020 in 42 evaluable COPD subjects.
