Research summary
The Sponsor is developing, a new formulation of Tiotropium to be delivered by pressurised metered dose inhaler (pMDI), for the potential treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
The aim of this study is to compare the new formulation of Tiotropium with existing marketed formulations using pharmacokinetic measures.
The study will consist of one screening visit and five treatment periods where up to 50 healthy male and female subjects will receive four inhalations as a single dose of Tiotropium from five study inhalers (four test inhalers and one reference inhaler). They will receive 20mcg Tiotropium from the test inhalers and 10 mcg from the reference inhaler. Doses will be separated by 12-19 days. For each dose administration, regular blood samples will be taken for 24 hours following dosing to allow determination of AUC and Cmax.
