Abstract Background This study, in patients with symptomatic chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), explored switching therapy from non-extrafine high-dose inhaled corticosteroid/long-acting β2-agonist (ICS/LABA; fluticasone propionate/salmeterol [FP/SLM]) to extrafine medium-dose beclometasone dipropionate/formoterol fumarate dihydrate/glycopyrronium (BDP/FF/G), both via dry-powder inhaler. Functional Respiratory Imaging, a quantitative computed tomography method with 3D reconstructions of pulmonary anatomy, was used to assess airway geometry and lung function. Methods Patients receiving a stable ICS/LABA regimen for ≥ 8 weeks were switched to FP/SLM 500/50 µg, one inhalation twice-daily (high-dose ICS) for 6 weeks. After baseline assessments (Visit 2 [V2]), therapy was switched to BDP/FF/G 100/6/10 µg, two inhalations twice-daily (medium-dose ICS) for 6 weeks, followed by V3. The primary endpoints were percentage changes in specific image-based airway volume (siVaw) and resistance (siRaw) from baseline to predose at V3 (i.e., chronic effects), assessed at total lung capacity (TLC) in central and distal lung regions. Secondary endpoints included siVaw and siRaw changes from pre-dose to post-dose at V2, and from pre-dose to post-dose at V3 at TLC (i.e., acute effects), and chronic and acute changes in siVaw and siRaw at functional residual capacity (FRC). Pre-dose forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) and COPD Assessment Test (CAT) were also assessed. Results There were no significant changes in pre-dose siVaw or siRaw at TLC from baseline to V3, although at FRC there was a significant decrease in mean siRaw in the distal airways (− 63.6%; p = 0.0261). In addition, in the distal airways there were significant acute effects at TLC on mean siVaw and siRaw (siVaw: 39.8% and 62.6%; siRaw: − 51.1% and − 57.2%, V2 and V3, respectively; all p |
