GSK5784283 added to standard COPD therapy vs placebo in moderate to very severe COPD
Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Parallel-group, Multicenter Study of the Efficacy and Safety of GSK5784283 (Felcorekibart) in Participants 40 to 80 Years of Age With Moderate to Very Severe COPD (PERSIST COPD-1)
Run by GlaxoSmithKline · NCT07780669 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study tests whether adding GSK5784283 to current COPD treatment reduces the rate of COPD flare-ups in adults with eosinophilic COPD and a history of exacerbations.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults aged 40 to 80 with moderate to very severe COPD, eosinophilic phenotype, elevated baseline COPD assessment test, and a history of frequent exacerbations on inhaled therapies.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients without the eosinophilic phenotype or with recent acute respiratory infections or certain comorbid conditions may not benefit.

What this trial studies
This is a Phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of GSK5784283 as an add-on therapy to standard COPD treatment in adults with moderate to very severe COPD and eosinophilic phenotype. Participants are currently or formerly smokers with elevated CAT scores and a history of frequent exacerbations. The primary goal is to determine if GSK5784283 can lower the annualized rate of moderate and severe exacerbations compared with placebo. Interventions include GSK5784283, placebo, and standard of care, and participants continue their existing inhaled therapies as appropriate. The trial is conducted at three GSK investigational sites in the United States.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, patients could experience fewer COPD flare-ups and better disease control when GSK5784283 is added to their current therapy.
How similar studies have gone: Previous studies in similar eosinophilic COPD approaches have shown promise, but this represents a targeted add-on strategy in a Phase 3 setting.
