What this study is testing

What is Depemokimab?

Depemokimab is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for pulmonary disease, chronic obstructive.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
Depemokimab is being developed as a treatment for individuals with moderate to severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder (COPD). The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of early initiation of depemokimab as an add-on medicine in participants with moderate to severe COPD with type 2 inflammation.

  • Participants with childhood asthma are permitted, provided that childhood asthma has resolved before 18 years of age and has not recurred
  • Other clinically significant lung disease: The Investigator must judge that COPD is the primary diagnosis accounting for the clinical manifestations of the lung disease.
  • COPD severity: Participants with more than one moderate exacerbation or severe exacerbation in the past 12 months prior to Visit 1
  • COPD stability: Participants with pneumonia, COPD exacerbation, or lower respiratory tract infection within the 4 weeks prior to Visit 1
