Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Male or female adults aged ≥40 years, who have signed an Informed Consent Form prior to initiation of any study-related procedure.
  • Patients with moderate to severe stable Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) according to the Global Initiative for Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) Guidelines 2006.
  • Patients who have smoking history of at least 10 pack years.
  • Patients with a post-bronchodilator Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) ≥30% and 15 hours a day) on a daily basis for chronic hypoxemia, or who have been hospitalized or visited an emergency department for a COPD exacerbation or as result of their airways disease in the 6 weeks prior to screening.
  • Patients who have had a respiratory tract infection within 6 weeks prior to screening.
  • Patients with concomitant pulmonary disease, pulmonary tuberculosis (unless confirmed by chest x-ray to be no longer active) or clinically significant bronchiectasis.
  • Patients with any history of asthma indicated by (but not limited to) a blood eosinophil count > 400/mm3.
  • Patients who, in the judgment of the investigator or the responsible Novartis personnel, have a clinically relevant laboratory abnormality or a clinically significant condition.
  • Patients with uncontrolled Type I and Type II diabetes.
  • History of malignancy of any organ system (including lung cancer), treated or untreated, within the past 5 years.
  • Patients who are contraindicated for or who have shown an untoward reaction to inhaled anticholinergic agents.
  • Patients with a history of long QT syndrome or whose QTc interval (Fridericia method) measured at screening is prolonged (>450 ms for males or >470 ms for females).
  • Patients with a history of untoward reactions to sympathomimetic amines, inhaled medication or any component thereof, or any of the study drugs or drugs with similar chemical structures.

Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply.
