The results from the GLOW3 study showed that treatment with
once-daily NVA237 50 µg for 3 weeks improves exercise tolerance
in patients with moderate to severe COPD. Furthermore,
meaningful improvements were observed in trough FEV1
,
accompanied by sustained reductions of lung hyperinflation
at rest, signified by sustained and significant improvements
in resting IC, RV, and FRC, and during exercise, signified by
sustained and significant improvements in IC at isotime during
exercise. A significant improvement in exercise endurance
(21% vs placebo after 3-weeks of treatment; mean treatment
difference 88.9 seconds) was reported by patients receiving
NVA237, an effect that is perceptible by patients and is in the
upper range of suggested thresholds for the clinically meaningful
difference in exercise tolerance tests.23,24 Importantly,
improvement in exercise endurance in NVA237-treated
patients was visible from the first dose. Effects of NVA237
on exercise endurance are in the range of those observed in
