Study Summary

This trial will assess the effects of two drugs on COPD patients using MRI to detect how air is flowing in and out of lungs and how oxygen can move from inhaled air into the blood.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with COPD, a lung condition that makes it hard to breathe. Participants must have specific breathing test results (FEV1/FVC < 70%) and may have alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency. It's not for those with asthma, interstitial lung disease, pulmonary vascular disease or who can't undergo MRI or other tests.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests how well two FDA-approved drugs, Anoro Ellipta and Arnuity Ellipta, improve lung health in COPD patients using traditional methods plus a new type of MRI called Hyperpolarized Xenon-129 MRI. This aims to establish HXe MRI as a tool for assessing treatment effectiveness.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While the side effects are not detailed here, Anoro and Arnuity typically might cause throat irritation, coughing, headaches or increased risk of infections. The HXe MRI is non-invasive but requires inhaling xenon gas; risks are minimal but could include discomfort.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: All COPD SubjectsExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
All subjects will be assessed with hyper polarized xenon-129 MRI, pulmonary function test, quality of life measures (BDI, TDI, SGRQ, CRQ, BODE, GOLD), and blood test. Intervention: All subjects will received Anoro one puff once a day for 30 days first, then 3 day washout, then Arnuity 250 microgram one puff twice a day for 30 days to complete the study.
