20
Q

Non clinical toxicology

A

No studies were conducted for Breo Ellipta in regards to carcinogen edits, mutagenesis and impairment of fertility

21
Q

7700 patients were studied

A

Dose ranging trials

Confirmatory trisls

22
Q

What were the copromary end points for the lung function trials 1 & 2.

A

Weighted mean FEV 1 (0-4 hours) post dose on day 168

Change from baseline in trough FEV1 on day 169

23
Q

For trials 1 & 2 lung function trials what were the findings for weighted mean FEV1 (0-4 hours) on day 168 for Breo Ellipta 100/25 compared with placebo and FF 100

A

On day 169 in both trials, Breo Ellots 100/25 demonstrated significant increases in trough FEV 1 compared with placebo.

In both trials improvements in trough FEV1 for Breo Ellipta 100/25 compared with vilanterol 25 did not achieve statistical significance

24
Q

What was the primary end point for the exacerbation trial 3 & 4

A

Annual rate of moderate to severe exacerbation a.

25
Q

For trials 3 & 4 what were the results regarding the annual rate of moderate/severe exacerbations of COpd for Breo Ellipta 100/25 compared with 25 mcg alone

A

Patients treated with Breo Ellipta 100/25 had a lower annual rate of moderate/severe COPD exacerbations compared with vilanterol 25 mcg in both trials.

26
Q

Patient counseling info

A

Asthma related death
Not meant for relief of acute symptoms of COPD
Do not use additional LABAs
Risks associated with corticosteroid therapy
Risks associated with beta agonist therapy.

27
Q

Describe how 0-4 hour post dose weighted mean FEV 1 on day 168 was calculated in the lung function trials

A

Weighted mean FEV1 0-4 hour post dose is derived by
Calculating the AUC from FEV1 measured 5,15 and 30 minutes and 1,2 and 4 hours post dose and
Then dividing the AUC by the time interval.

28
Q

Describe how change from baseline in trough FEV1 on day 169 was calculated in the lung function trials

A

Trough FEV1 is the mean of FEV1 values obtained at 23 and 24 hours after dosing on day 168.

Baseline FEV1 is the mean of two assessments at 30 and 5 minutes precise on treatment day 1

Change from baseline is the difference between day 169mean values and day 1 predose values

29
Q

Nasopharyngitis
