About This clinical research study

Here at MAC Clinical Research we are conducting a trial to test a potential new treatment for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). COPD is a disease frequently caused by tobacco use, which causes swelling and destruction of the lungs and results in symptoms such as cough, shortness of breath, and sputum production.  COPD is generally a progressive disease that gets worse over time and is associated with flare-ups also called exacerbations.

This study is being carried out to evaluate a new study drug compared to placebo as a medicine to treat moderate to very severe COPD associated with elevated blood eosinophils and history of frequent exacerbation.  The study drug makes it a potential treatment option for the high unmet need in COPD patients with eosinophilic inflammation and those at risk for exacerbations.  The study drug is being developed as an adjunctive maintenance treatment for the prevention of exacerbations in patients with COPD.

 

Reimbursement: Up to £850 from Screening to Week 56, and £50 per visit thereafter depending on scheduled visits, plus travel expenses.

ABOUT CLINICAL RESEARCH STUDIES

Clinical research studies are performed as a way of bringing about progress in medicine and research. Clinical research studies make it possible to scientifically assess the properties of a drug, to demonstrate the effectiveness and safety of a treatment or a medical device, or to learn more about a disease and methods to diagnose and monitor it.

If the study is successful, it may be an important step towards developing a promising new treatment.

MAC Clinical Research is conducting a trial to evaluate a potential new treatment for COPD.
