- Participant must be ≥40 years of age at the time of signing the informed consent.
- Documented primary diagnosis of COPD for at least 12 months prior to enrolment.
- Pre-BD FEV1/FVC < 0.7 at Visit 1 and pre- and post-BD FEV1/FVC < 0.7, and post-BD FEV1 ≥ 25% to < 80% of predicted normal at Visit 2.
- Documented history of ≥ 2 moderate or ≥ 1 severe COPD exacerbations in the 12 months prior to screening

You likely can't join if
- Clinically important pulmonary disease other than COPD (eg, asthma [current diagnosis per GINA or other accepted guidelines], active pulmonary infection, clinically significant bronchiectasis when bronchiectasis is the predominant diagnosis, pulmonary fibrosis, cystic fibrosis, hypoventilation syndrome associated with obesity, lung cancer, alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency or primary ciliary dyskinesia).
- Participants with evidence of active liver disease and/or evidence of chronic liver disease.
- Participants with history of HIV infection or who test positive for HIV.
- History of lung volume reduction surgery
- Current or history of malignancy within 5 years before the screening visit.
- Radiological findings suggestive of a respiratory disease other than COPD that is significantly contributing to the participant’s respiratory symptoms
