Cím:A controlled trial of 6-weeks' treatment with a novel inhaled phosphodiesterase type-4 inhibitor in COPD / Vestbo J., Tan L., Atkinson G., Ward J., UK-500,001 Global Study Team
Dátum:2009
Megjegyzések:Anti-inflammatory drugs are lacking in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and inhibitors of the phosphodiesterase type-4 (PDE4) enzyme have been suggested to be an interesting class of drugs to treat inflammation in COPD. The present authors report the findings of a phase II trial of a novel inhaled PDE4 inhibitor. Three doses, 0.1, 0.4 and 1.0 mg b.i.d., of the compound UK-500,001 were tested in a double-blind, placebo-controlled, 6-week trial in 209 patients with moderate-to-severe COPD. The primary efficacy parameter was trough forced expiratory volume in one second after 6 weeks of treatment, and secondary end-points included other lung function end-points and symptom scores assessed at 2-week intervals. The present study was stopped following a planned interim analysis for futility. No effect on the primary efficacy parameter, other measures of lung function or symptom scores was observed at any dose of UK-500,001 after 6 weeks of treatment. However, after the first 2 weeks of treatment, an improvement in a number of outcome measures in the 1.0 mg b.i.d. dose group was observed compared with placebo. The drug was well tolerated, although PDE4 inhibitor-related side-effects were observed, especially in the highest dose group. The findings of the present study question the role of inhaled phosphodiesterase type-4 inhibitors in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
