Solrikitug is an investigational drug, a drug that is still in development and testing, that can potentially benefit individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) by the pathway that causes type 2 inflammation. Solrikitug is given as an injection in the arm. Eligible participants will be randomized to receive a single dose of study medication (Solrikitug 375mg), three doses (day 1, week 4 and week 8) or placebo (inactive drug). The study is double blinded so neither the treatment team nor the participant will know what drug treatment they received. Enrollment in the study is up to 32 weeks, 4 weeks for screening and 28 weeks for treatment and follow up. Assessments conducted at the study visits include, but are not limited to, medical history and medication review, physical exams, blood tests, EKGs to look at the heart, breathing tests and questionnaires.

The goal of this study to test whether a 12-week home-based program delivered over the internet to people who have COPD and live in rural parts of the country can improve their health and overall quality of life. In this study, we will enroll 306 volunteers with COPD. The study is sponsored by a grant receive from the NIH National Institute of Nursing Research.
