Summary

This study tests whether dupilumab, an injectable drug, can reduce mucus plugs (blockages) in the lungs of people with moderate-to-severe COPD. About 218 current or former smokers aged 40-85 will receive either dupilumab or a placebo for 24 weeks. The main goal is to see if the drug clears mucus on CT scans and improves breathing, flare-ups, and quality of life.
