Study Description

This is a Phase 2 study in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) to assess the efficacy, pharmacodynamics (PD), pharmacokinetics (PK), and safety of two dose levels of CSJ117 in comparison to placebo. For this, the impact of CSJ117 on disease symptom burden and lung function will be explored.
