Patient has been advised to quit smoking, informed of smoking risks and of cessation programs as per SoC at V2, and is not willing to quit CIG use for the study duration. Checked at V1 and V2.
Patient agrees to be randomized into one of the two study arms. Checked at V2.
Patient with confirmed COPD via spirometry performed at V1 (FEV1/FVC \<70%, post-bronchodilator (-BD)) and COPD severity classified by the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Diseases (GOLD) as GOLD 2 or 3 (30%≤ FEV1 \< 80% predicted, -BD) with presence of chronic bronchitis (cough and mucus most of the days for \> three months a year for the two consecutive years prior to the screening visit). Checked at V2.
Patient has cough frequency of ≥ 10 cough/hour during daytime from objective count sensor applied at V1, used to verify eligibility at V2. (Daytime is defined as occurring between 07:00:00 and 22:59:59, based on the local time zone of the site where the patient is assessed.)
You may not be if

Patient using any systemic (injectable or oral) corticosteroids (acute or chronic treatments) or oxygen therapy in the last 2 months excluding short term use for a COPD exacerbation.
Patient currently being treated with angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or opioids, or those who have used ACE inhibitors within 4 weeks or opioids within 1 week prior to screening. Checked at V1 and V2.
Patient treated with biologic therapies for COPD (e.g., Dupilumab) in the last 6 months.
Female patient is pregnant, breastfeeding or lactating, or anticipating becoming pregnant withing the duration of the study. Checked at V1 and V2.
Female of childbearing potential who is capable of getting pregnant, defined as a female patient who does not agree to use an acceptable method of effective contraception during the entire study, a female patient that is not surgically sterilized (e.g., hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or tubal ligation) for at least 6 months or postmenopausal (postmenopausal females must have no menstrual bleeding for at least 1 year).
