Zusammenfassung
Rationale: The TIOSPIR™ trial showed that tiotropium (T) Respimat® (Resp) 5 µg and HandiHaler® (HH) 18 µg have similar safety and exacerbation (exa) efficacy profiles in patients (pts) with COPD. We present results for all pts using T HH® at baseline. Methods: TIOSPIR™ (n = 17,135) compared safety and efficacy of once-daily T Resp 5 and 2.5 µg with once-daily HH 18 µg in pts with COPD. Primary endpoints were time to death and time to first COPD exa. Safety, incl. cardiovascular (CV) safety, was assessed. Pts receiving T at baseline from countries where T Resp was unavailable at the time of study initiation (base…
