RIDGEWOOD, N.J., Sept. 21, 2017 -- Atlant Clinical has successfully completed an international, multicenter, randomized, phase IV study in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

The trial was conducted for an international pharma company and included 6,065 patients at 53 sites in 37 cities worldwide. Patient recruitment took nine months and the observation period,  twelve months. The trial demonstrated pharmacoeconomic benefits of the investigational product.
