Figures & data
Figure 1 (A) isPLA of phosphorylated p38α in alveolar macrophages of lung tissue from COPD patients and controls. Data are representative of two experiments. (B) AZD7624 inhibition of LPS-stimulated pro-inflammatory cytokine TNF-α in human alveolar macrophages. Data are presented as mean ± SEM of n=4. AZD7624 attenuation of (C) sputum neutrophil % differential and (D) TNF-α changes from baseline compared with placebo in the human LPS challenge study. Data are presented as mean ± SEM of 24–27 subjects per treatment group. ap<0.001 vs placebo.

Figure 2 Patient disposition. aInformed consent received. bOne patient was excluded from the analysis following review of protocol deviations owing to a lack of source data and Good Clinical Practice compliance. cPatient withdrawal recorded as “other” by study site investigators; one patient was unable to complete the study visits owing to terminal illness of family member; another patient was withdrawn by the study site investigator after a reassessment of patient eligibility (on day 4 after randomization). dCompletion status of two patients was not recorded.
