Plain-language summary
LPS18583 is a multinational, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, Phase 4 study with 2 treatment groups. The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of dupilumab compared with placebo on airway inflammation, resistance, and remodeling including mucus plugging and its association with improvement on lung function, exacerbations, and quality of life improvement in participants aged 40 years of age up to 85 years of age (inclusive).
Study details include:
The study duration will be up to 40 weeks. The treatment duration will be up to 24 weeks. The number of visits will be 9.

Inclusion Criteria:
Participants with a physician diagnosis of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) who meet the following criteria at screening:
* Current or former smokers with a smoking history of ≥10 pack-years
* Moderate-to-severe COPD (post-BD FEV1/FVC ratio \<0.70 and post-BD FEV1 % predicted \>30% and ≤70%)
* Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale grade ≥2 or COPD assessment test (CAT) score ≥10
* Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) category E , Frequent or severe exacerbations
* Background triple therapy (ICS + LABA + LAMA) for 3 months before randomization with a stable dose of medication for ≥1 month before Visit 1; dual therapy (LABA + LAMA) allowed if ICS is contraindicated
* Evidence of Type 2 inflammation: Participants with blood eosinophils ≥300 cells/μL at screening or with blood eosinophils ≥150 cells/μL at Visit 1 (screening) and with a history of blood eosinophils ≥300 cells/μL within the past year during stable state (non-exacerbation).
* Mucus score cutoff of ≥3
Exclusion Criteria:
* A current diagnosis of asthma according to the Global Initiative for Asthma diagnostic (GINA) guidelines, or documented history of asthma
* Significant pulmonary disease other than COPD (eg, lung fibrosis, sarcoidosis, interstitial lung disease, pulmonary hypertension, bronchiectasis, Churg-Strauss Syndrome) or another diagnosed pulmonary or systemic disease associated with elevated peripheral eosinophil counts
* Treatment with oxygen \>…
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
