Descriptive Information
Brief Title ICMJE	Determine the Safety and Efficacy of (R,R)-Formoterol in the Treatment of Subjects With COPD
Official Title ICMJE	A Double-Blind, Double-Dummy, Randomized, Placebo- and Active-Controlled, Multicenter, Parallel-Group Study of (R,R)-Formoterol in the Treatment of Subjects With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Brief Summary	The purpose of this study is to assess the bronchodilator effect and safety of multiple daily doses of arformoterol administered for 12 weeks as maintenance treatment in patients with COPD
Detailed Description	This was a double-blind, double-dummy, randomized, placebo- and active-controlled, multicenter, parallel-group study of adult subjects with COPD. The study was double blinded through the use of both unit dose vial (UDV) and metered-dose inhaler (MDI) placebos, as appropriate. The primary efficacy analysis utilized the placebo control. Secondary analyses of the primary efficacy endpoint utilized the active control, and included comparisons between the placebo and active control. This study was previously posted by Sepracor Inc. In October 2009, Sepracor Inc. was acquired by Dainippon Sumitomo Pharma., and in October 2010, Sepracor Inc's name was changed to Sunovion Pharmaceuticals Inc.
