Clinical Details

Official title: Characterization of 24 Hour Spirometry Profiles of Inhaled BI 1744 CL and Inhaled Foradil in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Study design: Treatment, Crossover Assignment, Safety/Efficacy Study

Primary outcome: The primary objective will be to evaluate whether once daily treatment with 5 mcg or 10 mcg BI 1744 administered via the Respimat device is superior to once daily treatment with Placebo Respimat using FEV1 AUC values

Secondary outcome: The key secondary objective will be to compare once daily treatment with 5 mcg or 10 mcg BI 1744 administered via the Respimat device to twice daily treatment with Foradil Aerolizer using FEV1 AUC values. Additional pulmonary and safety measures
