Pivotal Study to Assess the Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of Dupilumab in Patients With Moderate-to-severe COPD With Type 2 Inflammation

Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of dupilumab administered every 2 weeks in patients with moderate-or severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) as measured by * Annualized rate of acute moderate and severe COPD exacerbation (AECOPD) Secondary Objectives: To evaluate the effect of dupilumab administered every 2 weeks on * Pre-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) over 12 weeks compared to placebo * Health related quality of life, assessed by the change from baseline to Week 52 in the St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) * Pre-bronchodilator FEV1 over 52 weeks compared to placebo * Lung function assessments * Moderate and severe COPD exacerbations * To evaluate safety and tolerability * To evaluate dupilumab systemic exposure and incidence of anti-drug antibodies (ADA)
