The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that once daily treatment with tiotropium 5µg + olodaterol 5µg fixed dose combination will reduce the number of COPD exacerbations compared to tiotropium 5µg monotherapy.
Patients will be randomised by IRT after a successful screening period to one of two treatment arms (tiotropium 5µg + olodaterol 5µg fixed dose combination or tiotropium 5µg). During the 52 week treatment period, the patient will return to clinic 5 times and have four telephone calls from the research team. After the treatment period, there will be three week follow up period after which the patients involvment in the trial will be over.REC name
