4 Clinical study infrmatin Dsing infrmatin Each single inhalatin f Anr Ellipta prvides a delivered dse (the dse leaving the muthpiece) f 65 mcg umeclidinium brmide equivalent t 55 mcg umeclidinium and 22 mcg vilanterl (as trifenatate). This crrespnds t a pre-dispensed dse f 74.2 mcg umeclidinium brmide equivalent t 62.5 mcg umeclidinium and 25 mcg vilanterl (as trifenatate). 1 Please nte that the licensed dse f umeclidinium/vilanterl (UMEC/VI) is 55/22 mcg. 1 Licensing infrmatin Anr Ellipta (umeclidinium/vilanterl 55/22 mcg) is indicated as a maintenance brnchdilatr treatment t relieve symptms in adult patients with chrnic bstructive pulmnary disease (COPD). 1 The efficacy and safety f Incruse Ellipta (umeclidinium 55 mcg) is als discussed in this Evidence Dssier. Incruse Ellipta is indicated as a maintenance brnchdilatr treatment t relieve symptms in adult patients with COPD. 2 UMEC 113 mcg, VI 22 mcg, UMEC/VI 5/25 mcg and UMEC/VI 113/22 mcg, included in the Dnhue et al., 214 study, Decramer et al., 214 study and Feldman et al., 212 study, are nt licensed fr the treatment f COPD in the UK. The results have nt been included in the efficacy sectin but have been included in the safety sectin fr transparency purpses. Safety studies with an un-licensed dse have als been included fr transparency. Interpreting clinical trial results statistical hierarchy When reviewing the utcmes f clinical trials it is imprtant t understand the relevance f statistical hierarchy and hw that impacts the cnclusins that can be derived frm a study. This cncept is explained belw. Statistical hierarchy sequentially tests the significance f a number f endpints in a study prgramme in a predetermined rder. Fr each endpint, a determinatin f significance can nly be made if all prir endpints were als significant. Treatment cmparisns fr the primary endpints are required t be statistically significant in rder t infer significance fr the secndary endpints. Therefre, if the trial des nt meet its primary endpint, the secndary endpints cannt be statistically analysed; thse results are described as descriptive nly. Date f preparatin: August 218 4
