Boehringer Ingelheim12 enrolled

Overview

The primary objective of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetics of tiotropium + olodaterol fixed-dose combination (FDC) (5 μg/ 5 μg) delivered by the RESPIMAT inhaler after single dose and at steady state in Chinese patients with COPD. The secondary objective is to assess the safety of tiotropium + olodaterol FDC (5 μg/ 5 μg) delivered by the RESPIMAT inhaler after 3 weeks once daily treatment in Chinese patients with COPD.

Exclusion criteria: * Patients with a significant disease other than Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD); a significant disease is defined as a disease which, in the opinion of the investigator, may (i) put the patient at risk because of participation in the study, (ii) influence the results of the study, or (iii) cause concern regarding the patient's ability to participate in the study. * Patients with a, in the opinion of the investigator, clinically relevant abnormal baseline haematology, blood chemistry, or urinalysis; all patients with an Serum Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase (SGOT) \>x 2 Upper Limit of Normal (ULN), Serum Glutamic Pyruvic Transaminase(SGPT) \>x 2 ULN, bilirubin \>x 2 ULN or creatinine \>x 2 ULN will be excluded regardless of clinical condition (a repeat laboratory evaluation will not be conducted in these patients). * Patients with a history of asthma.
