Summary:
Together, We Could Breathe New Life Into COPD Care
Living with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) can be hard. But, by working together, we might be able to improve the quality of life for those living with the disease. That’s why we’re looking for diverse volunteers to take part in a clinical trial that will assess how safe and effective a new investigational drug is in reducing COPD flare-ups or exacerbations.
