Switching from MITT to FF/UMEC/V13
This study examined the impact of switching from MITT to FF/UMEC/VI on moderate and severe exacerbations in a real-world setting.13 An analysis was carried out using the Optum Research Database in patients with COPD.13 Patients aged ≥40 years, initiated on FF/UMEC/VI between September 1, 2017 and December 31, 2018 (with an index date of the earliest pharmacy fill for FF/UMEC/VI), and that were on MITT for ≥30 consecutive days during the 12 months prior to the index date were included.13
