Purpose

This study will assess the safety/tolerability of 28 days of treatment with NVA237 100 and 200 µg once a day, compared to placebo in patients with moderate or severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).

Primary Outcome Measures:

Safety of Treatment With NVA237 in Patients With Moderate to Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) [ Time Frame: 28 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
The assessment of safety was based on adverse events, particularly those adverse events known to be associated to treatment with muscarinic antagonists. A summary of adverse events is presented with this outcome, additional details are provided in Adverse Events Sections.

Secondary Outcome Measures:

Least Squares Means of Trough Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second (FEV1), by Day [ Time Frame: 28 Days ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Forced expiratory volume maneuvers recorded using a calibrated spirometer. Trough FEV1 on Days 1 & 28 defined as the mean of the FEV1 values measured at 23 hours 15 minutes and 23 hours 45 minutes post-dose.

Eligibility

Ages Eligible for Study:	40 Years and older
Genders Eligible for Study:	Both

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

Male or female adults aged 40 years or older
Patients with moderate to severe COPD according to the GOLD Guidelines (2006)
Patients who have smoking history of at least 10 pack years
Patients with a post-bronchodilator FEV1 equal or greater than 30% of the predicted normal value and less than 80% of the predicted normal value, and post-bronchodilator FEV1/FVC less than 0.7 at visit 2
Written informed consent by the patient prior to initiation of any study-related procedure

Exclusion Criteria:

Patients requiring oxygen therapy on a daily basis for chronic hypoxemia, or who have been hospitalized for an exacerbation of their airways disease in the 6 weeks prior to visit 1 or during the screening period (up to visit 3).
Patients who have had a respiratory tract infection within 6 weeks prior to visit 1 or during the screening period (up to visit 3).
Patients with a history of asthma indicated by (but not limited to):
Blood eosinophil count > 400/mm3
Onset of symptoms prior to age 40 years.
Patients with a history of long QT syndrome or whose QTc measured at visit 1 is prolonged (more than 440 ms for males or more than 460 ms for females).
Patients with a history of untoward reactions to sympathomimetic amines or inhaled medication or any component thereof.
Patients who, in the judgment of the investigator have a clinically relevant laboratory abnormality or a clinically significant condition such as (but not limited to) unstable ischemic heart disease, left ventricular failure, long term prednisone therapy, history of myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, narrow-angle glaucoma, symptomatic prostatic hyperplasia, bladder-neck obstruction or moderate to severe renal impairment that might compromise patient safety or compliance, interfere with evaluation, or preclude completion of the study.
History of malignancy of any organ system, treated or untreated, within the past 5 years whether or not there is evidence of local recurrence or metastases, with the exception of localized basal cell carcinoma of the skin.
