Pivotal Study to Assess the Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of Dupilumab in Patients With Moderate to Severe COPD With Type 2 Inflammation

Study Summary

Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of dupilumab administered every 2 weeks in patients with moderate or severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) as measured by * Annualized rate of acute moderate or severe COPD exacerbation (AECOPD) Secondary Objectives: To evaluate the effect of dupilumab administered every 2 weeks on * Pre-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) over 12 weeks compared to placebo * Health related quality of life, assessed by the change from baseline to Week 52 in the St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) * Pre-bronchodilator FEV1 over 52 weeks compared to placebo * Lung function assessments * Moderate and severe COPD exacerbations * To evaluate safety and tolerability * To evaluate dupilumab systemic exposure and incidence of antidrug antibodies (ADA)

Primary Outcome

Moderate exacerbations were recorded by the Investigator and defined as acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD) event that required either systemic corticosteroids (such as intramuscular, intravenous, or oral) and/or antibiotics. Severe exacerbations were also recorded by the Investigator and defined as AECOPD event that required hospitalization or observation for \>24 hours in an emergency department/urgent care facility or resulted in death. For both moderate and severe events to be counted as sep
