Research summary
This is a multiple-dose, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, incomplete-block, five-period crossover study in subjects diagnosed with COPD. Study treatments are to be administered once daily for 7 days in each of the five periods: each subject will receive four of six possible doses of TD-4208 (22 æg, 44 æg, 88 æg, 175 æg, 350 æg, or 700 æg) and placebo. Approximately 60 subjects will be enrolled. The primary objective of the study is to characterise the dose response curve of TD-4208 after 7 days of dosing in subjects with COPD with the intent to identify an effective dose, a minimal-effect dose, and a no-effect dose, measured by spirometry (forced expiratory volume in 1 second [FEV1]).
