Description

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a lung condition that makes it hard to breathe. It can also be called chronic bronchitis or emphysema.

Symptoms include shortness of breath, wheezing, chest tightness, and coughing. COPD gets worse over time and whilst there is no cure, treatments can help manage symptoms and improve quality of life.

Studies have shown that using a combination of inhaled medications may be more effective in reducing exacerbations, or flare-ups and improving lung function compared to using just one type of medicine.

What to expect

Here at Momentum, we are conducting a study that will explore the efficacy of an investigational combination of medications to prevent serious heart and lung issues in people with COPD.

Study treatments and procedures will be provided free of charge and participants will be reimbursed for reasonable expenses associated with study visits.

The study has an approximate duration of 3 years and involves 11 visits (both virtual and clinic visits).
