BACKGROUND: Although inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) are highly effective in asthma, they provide significant, but modest, clinical benefit in COPD. Here, we tested the hypothesis that high bronchial airway smooth muscle cell (ASMC) area in COPD is associated with ICS responsiveness.
METHODS: In this investigator-initiated and -driven, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial (HISTORIC), 190 COPD patients, Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease stage B-D, underwent bronchoscopy with endobronchial biopsy. Patients were divided into groups A and B, with high ASMC area (HASMC: >20% of the bronchial tissue area) and low ASMC area (LASMC: ≤20% of the bronchial tissue area), respectively, and followed a run-in period of 6 weeks on open-label triple inhaled therapy with aclidinium (ACL)/formoterol (FOR)/budesonide (BUD) (400/12/400 μg twice daily). Subsequently, patients were randomised to receive either ACL/FOR/BUD or ACL/FOR/placebo and followed for 12 months. The primary end-point of the study was the difference in post-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) over 12 months between patients with LASMC and HASMC receiving or not receiving ICS.
RESULTS: In patients with LASMC, ACL/FOR/BUD did not significantly improve FEV1 over 12 months, as compared to ACL/FOR/placebo (p=0.675). However, in patients with HASMC, ACL/FOR/BUD significantly improved FEV1, as compared to ACL/FOR/placebo (p=0.020). Over 12 months, the difference of FEV1 change between the ACL/FOR/BUD group and the ACL/FOR/placebo group was 50.6 mL·year-1 within the group of patients with LASMC and 183.0 mL·year-1 within the group of patients with HASMC.
CONCLUSION: COPD patients with ΗASMC respond better to ICS than patients with LASMC, suggesting that this type of histological analysis may predict ICS responsiveness in COPD patients receiving triple therapy.
