Frequent COPD symptom flare-ups? Researchers are asessing an investigational biologic medicine. Learn more about the ENDURA research studies
Consider a clinical trial for patients with COPD:
Are you (or a loved-one) aged 40 to 80 with emphysema or chronic bronchitis, also know as COPD? Have you had one or more symptom flare-ups in the past year?, if so you may qualify to enroll in a ENDURA study.
Must be a former or current smoker to qualify.
No insurance is needed to participate.
If you qualify for and enroll in an ENDURA study*:
- You may be reimbursed for travel to and from the study site.
- You may receive compensation for your time
- You may receive the study drug
About Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
COPD is a broad term that comprises several chronic (on-going) lung conditions such as emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Key signs and symptoms may include difficulty breathing, tiredness, and a chronic cough (with or without mucus). Symptoms may get worse at times called "exacerbations." These flare-ups may do further damage to the lungs, so it's important to effectively treat COPD.
There are different types of COPD. For example, up to 40% have what's called "Type 2 inflammation," which may increase the risk of symptom flare-ups. Though there is no cure for COPD, medications exist to help make breathing easier. Even so, more targeted treatments are needed - especially for those with Type 2 inflammation - and studies like this one are how we develop them
