They must have smoked at least 10 pack-years. Excluded are those with unstable disorders, other significant lung diseases like asthma, oxygen needs over 4 L/min, certain liver diseases or infections, recent use of certain drugs or biologics.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the effectiveness and safety of Benralizumab compared to a placebo in patients with COPD who frequently experience flare-ups. Participants will receive treatment for at least 56 weeks to see if it reduces these exacerbations.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include common cold symptoms, headache, sore throat and reactions at the injection site such as pain or swelling. There may also be risks related to allergic reactions including anaphylaxis.
