• 4. Any respiratory tract infection (including the upper respiratory tract) or COPD exacerbation (including the mild COPD exacerbation) within 6 weeks prior to screening or during the run-in period

• 5. Patients hospitalized for COPD exacerbation (an emergency room visit for longer than 24 hours will be considered a hospitalization) within 3 months prior to screening and during the run-in period

• 6. Clinically significant respiratory conditions other than COPD

• 7. Patients who in the Investigator's opinion may need to start a pulmonary rehabilitation program during the study and/or patients who started/finished it within 3 months prior to screening

• 8. Use of long-term oxygen therapy (≥15 hours/day)

• 9. Patient who does not maintain regular day/night, waking/sleeping cycles including night shift workers

• 10. Clinically significant cardiovascular conditions

• 11. Patients with Type I or uncontrolled Type II diabetes, uncontrolled hypo-or hyperthyroidism, hypokalaemia, or hyperadrenergic state, uncontrolled or untreated hypertension

• 12. Patients with QT corrected interval (QTc) using Fridericia formula (QTcF) (QTc=QT/ Duration in milliseconds between two R peaks of two consecutive QRS complexes (RR1/3) >470 msec as indicated in the centralised reading report assessed at Screening (Visit 1)

• 13. Patients with clinically significant abnormalities in the clinical laboratory tests, ECG parameters (other than QTcF) or in the physical examination at Visit 1 (screening)

• 14. Patients with abnormal liver function tests defined as Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), or total bilirubin ≥ 2.5 times upper limit of normal ranges at screening

• 20. Patients with a history (within 2 years prior to Visit 1 (screening) of drug and/or alcohol abuse that may prevent study compliance based on the Investigator judgment

• 21. Patients unlikely to be cooperative or cannot comply with the study procedures

• 22. Patients treated with any investigational drug within 30 days (or 6 half-lives, whichever is longer) prior to screening

• 23. Patients who intended to use any concomitant medication not permitted by this protocol or who had not undergone the required washout period for a particular prohibited medication

• 24. Patients unable to give consent, or patients of consenting age but under guardianship, or vulnerable patients

• 25. Any other conditions that, in the Investigator's opinion, might have indicated the patient to be unsuitable for the study
