Evaluation of the effects of olodaterol on exercise endurance in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: results from two 6-week crossover studies
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Two replicate, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 6-week crossover studies assessed the effect of the once-daily long-acting β2-agonist olodaterol 5 μg and 10 μg on constant work-rate cycle endurance in patients with moderate to very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. METHODS: Patients received placebo, olodaterol 5 μg once daily (QD) and olodaterol 10 μg QD in a randomised order for 6 weeks each, with a 2-week washout period in between. The primary end point was change in endurance time during constant work-rate cycle ergometry to symptom limitation at 75 % maximal work capacity after 6 weeks of treatment (2 h post-dose), based on log10-transformed data. Key secondary end points were inspiratory capacity at isotime and intensity of breathing discomfort at isotime. RESULTS: 151 and 157 patients were randomised and treated in Studies 1222.37 and 1222.38, respectively, with 147 and 154 being included in the full analysis sets. Mean endurance time at week 6 was increased compared to placebo by 14.0 % (Study 1222.37; p < 0.001) and 11.8 % (Study 1222.38; p < 0.01) with olodaterol 5 μg, and by 13.8 % (Study 1222.37; p < 0.001) and 10.5 % (Study 1222.38; p < 0.01) with olodaterol 10 μg. Inspiratory capacity at isotime increased with olodaterol 5 μg (Study 1222.37, 0.182 L, p < 0.0001; Study 1222.38, 0.084 L, p < 0.05) and 10 μg (Study 1222.37, 0.174 L; Study 1222.38, 0.166 L; both studies, p < 0.0001), and breathing discomfort was significantly reduced in Study 1222.37 (olodaterol 5 μg, 0.77 Borg units, p < 0.001; olodaterol 10 μg, 0.63 Borg units, p < 0.01) but not Study 1222.38. CONCLUSIONS: These studies provide further characterisation of the efficacy of olodaterol, showing that improvements in airflow (forced expiratory volume in 1 s) are associated with increases in inspiratory capacity and improvements in exercise endurance time. TRIAL REGISTRATIONS: NCT01040130 (1222.37) and NCT01040793 (1222.38).

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
