Primary outcomePrimary: Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second Area Under the Curve (FEV1 AUC) 0-12 — 1.69; 1.56 liters

Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety/tolerability of indacaterol and glycopyrronium (QVA149) (fixed-dose combination) with fluticasone/salmeterol over a 26-week period in patients with moderate to severe COPD.
