Brief Summary: The primary objective of this trial was to establish non-inferiority of lung function response to 25 μg salmeterol, administered as the xinafoate salt, in an inhalation powder delivered from hard polyethylene (PE) capsules via the HandiHaler® 2 compared to Serevent® Diskus® (salmeterol 50 μg, administered as the xinafoate salt) following single dose inhalation in patients with COPD. The secondary objectives were to characterize the pharmacokinetics of salmeterol inhalation powder delivered by HandiHaler® 2 from the PE hard capsule and salmeterol xinafoate delivered by Serevent® Diskus®, and to compare the safety of the two pharmaceutical forms.
