For appropriate patients with COPD,

START WITH ANORO INSTEAD OF ADVAIR 

ANORO demonstrated superior improvement in lung function vs ADVAIR, an ICS/LABA7

The 2 bronchodilators in ANORO provide nearly 2x the lung function improvement vs ADVAIR, an ICS/ LABA—a single bronchodilator and an inhaled corticosteroid

ANORO versus ADVAIR study information

Studied in patients with moderate to severe COPD (GOLD 2 or 3).7

  • DESCRIPTION OF STUDIES

     

    The efficacy and safety of a once-daily dose of ANORO ELLIPTA and a twice-daily dose of ADVAIR DISKUS 250 mcg/​50 mcg were evaluated in 12-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel-group studies in patients (mean age range: 63 to 64 years) with COPD with no exacerbations (COPD symptoms requiring oral corticosteroids, antibiotics, and/or hospitalization) in the previous year. At screening, patients had a mean postbronchodilator FEV1 range of 49.4% to 49.5% predicted.

     

    Primary endpoint

    Weighted mean FEV1 (0-24 hours post-dose on Day 84).

ANORO provided more patients with a ≥100 mL lung function improvement vs an established ICS/LABA7

Proportion of patients achieving an increase in trough FEV1 ≥100 mL above baseline at Day 85
Other endpoint: Endpoint was not adjusted for multiplicity.
