What is this study?
This study is trying to identify the right dose of a long-acting medicine called WIN378 for people with moderate - severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). WIN378 blocks the action of a protein called TSLP that causes inflammation in the lung and may contribute to COPD control and symptoms.
It is , overseen by an independent and licensed medical staff.

This study is trying to identify the right dose of a long-acting medicine called WIN378 for people with moderate - severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). WIN378 blocks the action of a protein called TSLP that causes inflammation in the lung and may contribute to COPD control and symptoms. The study will test how doses of WIN378 are handled by the body (pharmacokinetics) and assess the safety of the medicine and markers of COPD inflammation in exhaled breath and blood, lung function and COPD control (pharmacodynamics)
Who this study is looking for
In plain language, from the study's own rules. The study team confirms the full details with you — this isn't a final yes or no.
✅ You may be able to join if…
- •Adults age 40 to 80
- •Have COPD with screening lung test results: FEV1/FVC less than 0.70 and FEV1 between 30% and 80% predicted (post-BD spirometry)
- •Have been on stable triple inhaled therapy (ICS/LABA/LAMA) for at least 3 months
- •Are a former smoker (at least 10 pack-year history) and have not smoked for at least 6 months
- •Have elevated eosinophil count and weight/BMI within an allowed range
🚫 You may not be able to join if…
- •Have a lung disease other than COPD that is considered clinically significant

- •Are pregnant or breastfeeding
Are you a good fit?
Simplified highlights. The study team always confirms the full details with you.
- ✓Adults roughly 40–80
- ✓Have Obesity / overweight or COPD (chronic lung disease)
- !Some conditions may not be a fit: Heart / cardiovascular disease
- !Not for people who are pregnant or breastfeeding
What to expect, step by step
- 1
Usually a few weeks
The study team checks whether the study is a good fit for you, with a visit and sometimes lab tests. You can ask any questions before deciding.
- 2
Treatment
If you join and choose to continue, you receive the study treatment and are watched closely by medical staff.
- 3
Follow-up
After treatment, the team checks on your health and confirms the visit schedule with you. You can leave the study at any point.
Has this treatment been tested before?
Yes. This treatment has already been through earlier human studies for safety before reaching this stage.
What you need to know before you apply
What is this study testing?+
This study is trying to identify the right dose of a long-acting medicine called WIN378 for people with moderate - severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). WIN378 blocks the action of a protein called TSLP that causes inflammation in the lung and may contribute to COPD control and symptoms.
Is it safe? Who makes sure of that?+
This is a mid-stage study (Phase 2), looking at safety and whether the treatment works. Every study is reviewed and monitored by an independent ethics board (called an IRB) whose job is to protect participants, and care is overseen by licensed medical staff. You'll be told the known risks before you agree to anything, and you can stop at any time.
Will I get a placebo instead of the real treatment?+
Some studies compare a treatment against a placebo (an inactive version), and some don't. If this one does, the study team will explain your chances of receiving the active treatment before you decide. Nothing is hidden from you.
Do I have to stop taking my current medications?+
It depends on the study. Some let you stay on your current medications and some ask you to adjust them. Never stop a medication on your own — the study team will review everything with you first.
Does it cost anything? Will I be paid?+
The study treatment and study-related visits are provided at no cost to you. Some studies also pay for your time; the coordinator can tell you if this one does. You should never be asked to pay to take part.
Do I need insurance? Will anyone ask about my immigration status?+
No. You do not need health insurance to take part in a research study, and you will not be asked about your immigration status to join. Taking part is about whether you're a medical fit for the study.
What if English isn't my first language?+
You have the right to understand everything before you agree. Study sites can often provide materials or an interpreter in your language — you can ask the coordinator for one.
Is my information private?+
Yes. Your health information is only shared with the study sites you choose to be contacted by, and only to help match and enroll you. It is never sold, and you can ask us to delete it at any time.
Some requirements (like specific lab values or timing) are confirmed directly by the study team, not by us.
