Inclution Criteria
1 Participant must be ≥ 40 years of age at the time of signing the ICF.
Type of Participant and Disease Characteristics
2 Documented diagnosis of COPD for at least one year prior to enrolment.
3 Post-BD FEV1/FVC < 0.70 and post-BD FEV1 >20% of predicted normal value (as
assessed by central spirometry at screening).
4 Documented history of ≥ 2 moderate or ≥ 1 severe COPD exacerbations within 12 months
prior to enrolment:
(a) An exacerbation is considered moderate if it required treatment with systemic
corticosteroids and/or antibiotics, and severe if it required hospitalisation. Note:
hospitalisation is defined as an inpatient admission ≥ 24 hours in the hospital, in an
observation area, emergency department, or other equivalent healthcare facility
depending on the country and healthcare system.
(b) At least one qualifying exacerbation should have been treated with systemic
corticosteroids.
(c) Events treated with antibiotics alone qualify as a moderate exacerbation only when
antibiotic was specifically prescribed for worsening of COPD symptoms.
(d) Previous exacerbations should be confirmed to have occurred while the participant
was on stable dual or triple (ICS/LABA/LAMA) maintenance inhaled therapy for
COPD and not as a result of a gap or step down in the treatment.
(e) At least one qualifying exacerbation should have occurred while on the most recent
stable uninterrupted therapy (see inclusion criterion 5(a) and section 6.5.2) prior to
enrolment.
5 Documented optimised treatment with COPD inhaled maintenance therapy
(ICS/LABA/LAMA triple therapy, or dual therapy if triple is not indicated or
contraindicated) and at a stable dose for at least 3 months prior to enrolment. During this
period:
(a) Individual component changes or switches between devices are allowed as long as
the participant remains on the same class therapies in equivalent doses 1
.
(b) Short-term changes in background treatment regimen during COPD exacerbation are
acceptable.
(c) Short-acting muscarinic antagonist taken at regular scheduled interval (at a minimum
frequency of 3 times daily) will be considered equivalent to LAMA.
(d) If participant is being treated with any oral COPD maintenance therapy (eg,
macrolides, xanthines, roflumilast), these treatments must also be stable for at least 3
months prior to enrolment (see Section 6.5.2).
6 Smoking history of ≥ 10 pack-years:
(a) Former smokers will be defined as participants who are currently not smoking and
with smoking cessation ≥ 6 months prior to screening with an intention to quit
permanently.
(b) Current smokers will be defined as participants who are currently smoking tobacco
(at least one cigarette per day on average during the past 7 days) and are not currently
participating in smoking cessation.
(c) Electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) use does not contribute to the pack-year count for
eligibility.
7 CAT total score ≥ 10, with each of the phlegm (sputum) and cough items with a score ≥ 2,
at both screening (V1) and randomisation (V2).
8 At least 70% daily PRO completion during the entire screening period, with at least 50%
daily PRO completion in the 14-day period prior to randomisation.
9 At least 70% compliance with COPD maintenance inhaled therapy (defined as taking
COPD maintenance inhaled medication as scheduled for the day) during the entire
screening period.
10 Able to read and use electronic devices.
Reproduction
11 Female participants of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test
at V1 and a negative urine pregnancy test at V2.
12 Contraceptive use by males and females should be consistent with local regulations
regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies.
a) Male participants:
Non-sterile 2 male participants who are sexually active with a female partner of
childbearing potential must agree to use a male condom while engaging in sexual
activity from enrolment throughout the study duration and until 14 weeks after
last dose of IP. In countries where spermicide is available, it is strongly
recommended. It is also strongly recommended for the female partner of a male
participant to use a highly effective method of contraception throughout this
period.
Non-sterilised male patients should also refrain from biologically fathering a
child or donating sperm during the same period.
b) Female participants:
Females not of childbearing potential are defined as females who are either
permanently sterilised (hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or bilateral
salpingectomy), or who are postmenopausal. Females will be considered
postmenopausal if they have been amenorrhoeic for 12 months prior to the
planned date of randomisation without an alternative medical cause. The
following age-specific requirements apply:
• Females < 50 years old would be considered postmenopausal if they have
been amenorrhoeic for 12 months or more following cessation of exogenous
hormonal treatment and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) levels in the
postmenopausal range.
• Females ≥ 50 years old would be considered postmenopausal if they have
been amenorrhoeic for 12 months or more following cessation of all
exogenous hormonal treatment.
Females of childbearing potential who are sexually active with a non-sterilised
male partner must agree to use one highly effective method of birth control, as
defined below, from enrolment throughout the study and until at least 14 weeks
after last dose of IP. Cessation of contraception after this point should be
discussed with a responsible physician. Periodic abstinence (calendar,
symptothermal, post-ovulation methods), withdrawal (coitus interruptus),
spermicides only, and lactational amenorrhoea method are not acceptable methods
of contraception. Female condom and male condom should not be used together.
A highly effective method of contraception is defined as one that can achieve a
failure rate of less than 1% per year when used consistently and correctly. Highly
effective birth control methods include: sexual abstinence (periodic abstinence eg,
calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods, declaration of
abstinence for the duration of exposure to IP, and withdrawal are not acceptable
methods of contraception), a vasectomised partner, Implanon®, bilateral tubal
occlusion, intrauterine device/levonorgestrel intrauterine system, Depo-Provera™
injections, oral contraceptive, and Evra Patch™, Xulane™, or NuvaRing®.
It is highly recommended for the male partner of a female participant who is of
childbearing potential to use a male condom whilst engaging in sexual activity
throughout this period.
Note there are no contraception requirements for female participants who are not
of childbearing potential. However, all female participants should refrain from egg
cell donation and breastfeeding throughout the study.

(b) Influence the findings of the study or their interpretation.
(c) Impede the participant’s ability to complete the entire duration of the study and/or
comply with the study visit schedule and procedures.
5 COPD exacerbation, within 2 weeks prior to randomisation, that was treated with
systemic corticosteroids and/or antibiotics, and/or led to hospitalisation (based on last

systemic antibiotic, antiviral, or antifungal medication, respectively) within the 4 weeks
prior to randomisation, pneumonia within 6 weeks prior to randomisation, or medical

arrhythmia, cardiomyopathy, unstable moderate to severe heart failure (NYHA class
III-IV and or LVEF < 30%), clinically significant aortic stenosis, uncontrolled arterial
hypertension, or any other relevant cardiovascular condition), that, in the investigator’s
judgement may put the participant at risk or negatively affect the outcome of the study.

b) Allergy or reaction to any component of the IP formulation.
Diagnostic Assessments
33 Any clinically significant abnormal findings in physical examination, vital signs, ECG, or
laboratory testing during the screening period, which in the opinion of the investigator
may put the participant at risk because of his/her participation in the study, or may
influence the results of the study, or the participant’s ability to complete the entire
duration of the study. If abnormal findings suggest a transient effect, participants may be
retested at the discretion of the investigator prior to randomisation.
Other Exclusions

months prior to randomisation and during the study. Note: active vaping is defined as at
least one vape a day on average, over last 7 days.
