Introduction:

PHYSACTO® has shown improvements in exercise capacity in patients with COPD receiving bronchodilators (BDs)± exercise training (ExT) added to a self-management behaviour-modification programme (SMBM).

Aim:

We explored the influence of BDs ± ExT following SMBM on physical activity (PA) and perceived PA-related difficulty and symptoms in PHYSACTO® (NCT02085161).

Methods:

A 12-week (wk), randomised, partially double-blind, placebo (P)-controlled, parallel-group trial. Interventions (all with 12-wk SMBM): P; tiotropium (T) 5 µg; T + olodaterol (O) 5/5 µg; T+O 5/5 µg + 8-wk ExT. A triaxial accelerometer assessed PA (steps/day), the Functional Performance Inventory assessed patient-reported difficulty engaging in PA and the Chronic Respiratory Questionnaire assessed PA-related dyspnoea.

Results:

303 patients (post-BD FEV1: 57 (13) % predicted) were randomised and treated (full analysis set n = 274). Change in steps/day at Wk 12 is shown in the Table; no significant gain in PA was seen by adding T+O or T+O + ExT to SMBM, versus SMBM + P. However, PA-related difficulty and dyspnoea significantly decreased at Wk 12 for SMBM + T+O, versus SMBM + P.

aMeasured via triaxial accelerometer.

Conclusions:

In moderate to severe COPD, SMBM increased PA and the addition of T+O to SMBM was associated with reduced PA-related difficulty and symptoms when compared to SMBM + P.
