NCT00634829 · Phase 3 · terminated
This is a randomized, quadruple-blind, placebo- and active-controlled crossover study measuring lung function directly, but the sample size is small and no results have been posted yet, so the outcome remains unknown. (Independently confirmed by a second model, in-session-confirm:claude-opus-20260822.)
Next expected readout: June 2027 · NCT06676319 (registry estimate)
GW642444H
Developed by GlaxoSmithKline
NCT00381667 · Phase 2 · completed
The study was randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled, but enrolled only 14 participants. Its primary outcomes included lung-function and safety measurements rather than a hard clinical endpoint, and the primary comparison cannot be assessed because results have not been posted.
