Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of tezepelumab in adults with moderate to very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD who are receiving inhaled maintenance therapy. This Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study focuses on adults aged 40 to 80 years who have experienced multiple COPD exacerbations in the year prior to enrollment. The trial aims to assess tezepelumabs impact compared to placebo on COPD exacerbations and lung function. Participants will receive monthly subcutaneous injections of one of two doses of tezepelumab or a matching placebo. Treatment duration ranges from a minimum of 52 weeks to a maximum of 76 weeks. Following the treatment period, participants will undergo a 12-week off-treatment safety follow-up to monitor any lasting effects. Throughout the study, participants will be regularly assessed for COPD exacerbations, lung function changes measured by forced expiratory volume FEV1, and quality of life using questionnaires such as the St. Georges Respiratory Questionnaire and COPD Assessment Test. Blood samples will be collected to measure drug levels and immune responses. Safety and efficacy will be closely monitored, with total participation lasting up to approximately 88 weeks including follow-up.

Researchers are evaluating depemokimab as a treatment for adults aged 40 to 80 with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD who have type 2 inflammation and uncontrolled symptoms despite standard care. The study aims to assess the safety and effectiveness of depemokimab compared to a placebo when added to the usual treatment. This phase 3 trial is sponsored by GlaxoSmithKline and focuses on reducing COPD exacerbations and improving respiratory symptoms over a long period. Participants will receive either depemokimab by subcutaneous injection alongside their standard inhaler therapy or a placebo injection plus standard care. The study is randomized, double-blind, and includes two groups one receiving depemokimab and the other a placebo, both continuing optimized inhaler treatments. This study will last up to 104 weeks, with regular assessments throughout. During the study, participants will undergo evaluations including lung function tests, symptom questionnaires such as the COPD assessment test and St. Georges Respiratory Questionnaire, and monitoring for COPD flare-ups or hospital visits. Researchers will track the number and severity of exacerbations and changes in quality of life measures. Safety and tolerability will also be closely monitored throughout the trial duration, which extends up to two years.

Researchers are evaluating lunsekimig, a subcutaneous injection, compared with placebo in adults aged 40 to 80 years with inadequately controlled Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease COPD characterized by an eosinophilic phenotype. This Phase 2bPhase 3 parallel study aims to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of lunsekimig in reducing COPD exacerbations and improving lung function and symptoms. Participants are randomly assigned to one of three groups lunsekimig dose regimen A, lunsekimig dose regimen B, or a matching placebo. They will receive subcutaneous injections during a 48-week treatment period. The study also includes a screening period of up to 4 weeks before treatment and an approximately 8-week follow-up period after treatment, totaling up to 60 weeks of participation. During the study, participants will undergo regular assessments including lung function tests such as post- and pre-bronchodilator Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second FEV1, questionnaires measuring respiratory health and symptoms, and monitoring of COPD exacerbations. Safety will be evaluated through reported adverse events and laboratory tests. Researchers will also monitor blood levels of lunsekimig and the presence of antidrug antibodies. Participants will be followed closely throughout the study duration to assess treatment impact and safety.
