Anoro Ellipta™ - Umeclidinium/Vilanterol
Clinical Application
• Indications:
• Maintenance treatment of airflow
obstruction in patients with COPD

• Anoro Ellipta is the first fixed-dose
combination of a LABA and anticholinergic
agent
Anoro Ellipta™ - Umeclidinium/Vilanterol
Clinical Application
• Contraindications:
• Severe hypersensitivity to milk protein or
any ingredients
• Black Box warnings

death
Anoro Ellipta™ - Umeclidinium/Vilanterol
Clinical Application
• Warnings and Precautions
• Do not initiate in acutely deteriorating COPD or to
treat acute symptoms
• Do not use with other LABAs
• Discontinue if paradoxical bronchospasm occurs
• Use with caution in cardiovascular disorders,
convulsive disorders, thyrotoxicosis, diabetes,
ketoacidosis, and narrow-angle glaucoma

breast milk so use with caution
Anoro Ellipta™ - Umeclidinium/Vilanterol
Drug Facts
• Pharmacology:
• Umeclidinium (anticholinergic): inhibits M3
recepto at the smooth muscle leading to
bronchodilation. Also known as LongActing Muscarinic Antagonist (LAMA)
• Vilanterol (LABA): stimulation of
intracellular adenyl cyclase, which
catalyzes ATP to cAMP. Increased cAMP
causes relaxation of bronchial smooth
muscle

Anoro Ellipta™ - Umeclidinium/Vilanterol
Literature Review
• Statistics
• 273 patients in each active arm and 183 patients
in the placebo arm would have 90% power to
detect a 1-unit difference between treatments.
• This also gae >99% to detect a 0.1 L difference in
trough FEV1
• Assuming a withdrawal rate of 30%, 399 patients
were needed for the active arms and 266 patients
were needed for placebo
