About COPD Clinical Trials

This clinical trial is focused on helping people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) who are at high risk of heart and lung problems. The trial will compare two inhaler treatments which include a triple therapy that is a combination of three medications and a dual therapy which is a combination of two medications

Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two groups. One group will receive triple therapy while the second group will receive dual therapy. The goal is to see which treatment works better in reducing heart and lung-related complications in people with COPD.

*All study procedures and study-related treatment, including the investigational drug, are free of cost, and insurance is not required to participate.

Understanding Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a long-term lung condition that makes it difficult to breathe. It affects millions of people worldwide and often worsens over time. COPD typically includes two main conditions:

  • Chronic Bronchitis: Inflammation of the lining of your bronchial tubes, which carry air to and from your lungs.
  • Emphysema: Damage to the air sacs (alveoli) in the lungs, leading to reduced oxygen flow.

Common Symptoms of COPD

  • Shortness of Breath: Especially during physical activities.
  • Chronic Cough: Often with mucus (phlegm) production.
  • Wheezing: A high-pitched whistling sound when breathing.
  • Fatigue: Feeling tired or lacking energy.
  • Frequent Respiratory Infections: Such as colds or the flu.

Causes of COPD

COPD is most often caused by long-term exposure to lung irritants, such as:

  • Cigarette Smoking: The leading cause of COPD.
  • Air Pollution: Including secondhand smoke or dust.
  • Occupational Hazards: Exposure to chemical fumes, vapors, or dust at the workplace.

Managing COPD

While there is no cure for COPD, it can be managed with medications, lifestyle changes, and therapy. Common treatments include:

  • Inhalers: To open the airways and reduce inflammation.
  • Pulmonary Rehabilitation: A program to improve lung function.
  • Oxygen Therapy: To ensure enough oxygen reaches your bloodstream.

By participating in COPD Clinical Trials, you can contribute to finding better treatments for this condition and potentially improve your quality of life.
