WELCOME TO THE BICS STUDY

A randomised, double-blind placebo controlled trial of the effectiveness of the beta-blocker bisoprolol in preventing exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Bisoprolol in COPD study (BICS)

What is BICS?

BICS is a research study into the treatment of COPD. In the BICS study we are trying to find out if flare-ups of COPD can be prevented by using a tablet called bisoprolol. Bisoprolol is a beta-blocker that has been widely used for a long time to treat heart problems, but it now seems that bisoprolol might also reduce flare ups of COPD regardless of heart problems.

To find out if bisoprolol reduces the number of flare ups we are comparing the effects of bisoprolol against the effects of a placebo ‘dummy treatment’, which looks like the genuine medicine but contains no active ingredient.

Half of the people who take part in the BICS study will receive bisoprolol tablets and half will receive placebo tablets. People in the study will take the bisoprolol or placebo tablets for 12 months. During this 12 month period we will count how many flare-ups people have and then compare the numbers in each group.

We aim to recruit 1574 people with COPD into the BICS study.

Can I take part?

Recruitment to the BICS study is now closed and we have completed follow-up on all those people who took part. We recruited patients at hospitals and GP practices across the UK. You can see the locations of these in the section of this website "where can I take part".

Patients with COPD who were aged 40 years or older, and who had two COPD flare-ups in the past year were eligible to take part.

Key facts about the study and documents

What is this study about?

This research study is trying to find out if the beta-blocker bisoprolol reduces the number of COPD flare ups (also known as exacerbations). Beta-blockers have been used to treat heart conditions for over 30 years and is safe to use in COPD. There is some evidence that people who have COPD and who take beta-blockers are less likely to have flare-ups. In our study, we want to investigate whether people with COPD who are started on bisoprolol, are less likely to have flare ups.


What will happen to me if I take part?
1. To find out if bisoprolol reduces the number of COPD flare ups we are comparing the effect of bisoprolol against the effect of a placebo ‘dummy treatment’, which looks like the genuine medicine but contains no active ingredient.
2. Each person in the study is put into a group selected randomly by a computer (like tossing a coin). Half of the 1574 people will take bisoprolol and half will take the placebo for a year. To make sure that the true effects of bisoprolol are being studied neither you nor your doctor will know which treatment group you are in (although, if your doctor needs to find out he/she can do so).

What would I have to do?
1. Have study appointments. The first study appointment might be face-to-face or done by telephone or video call. If you come to a face-to-face appointment, we can help with travel expenses. All the other study appointments are by telephone or video call. We’ll give you a machine to measure your heart rate and blood pressure and we’ll ask you to give us readings from this during your appointments. We’ll ask you to tell us about your COPD and any flare-ups you have had.
2. Take the study tablets for a year and make a note of any flare ups of your COPD and how they are treated by your GP. Supplies of study tablets will be sent by courier to your home address.
3. Continue taking all of your normal medicines. If you need to go to your GP for treatment you should go, any flare ups of your COPD can be treated as they normally would.

You can read out more about the study in the patient information leaflet below or ask us to send you a copy in the post. You can also contact us with any questions you have about the study.
