• Type of subject: Outpatient.
• Informed Consent: Capable of giving signed informed consent, which includes compliance with pre-specified requirements and restrictions.
• Age and gender: Male and female subjects, 40 years of age or older at the time of signing the informed consent, are eligible to participate in the study.

Female subject: is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant (as confirmed by a negative urine human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) test), not lactating, and at least one of the following conditions applies:

1. Non-reproductive potential defined as:

   Pre-menopausal females with one of the following: documented tubal ligation; documented hysteroscopic tubal occlusion procedure with follow-up confirmation of bilateral tubal occlusion; hysterectomy; documented bilateral oophorectomy Postmenopausal defined as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea. Females on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and whose menopausal status is in doubt will be required to use one of the highly effective contraception methods if they wish to continue their HRT during the study. Otherwise, they must discontinue HRT to allow confirmation of post-menopausal status prior to study enrolment.

2. Reproductive potential and agrees to follow one of the options listed below 30 days prior to the first dose of study medication and until at least five terminal half-lives OR until any continuing pharmacologic effect has ended, whichever is longer after the last dose of study medication and completion of the follow-up visit. This list does not apply to females of reproductive potential with same sex partners, when this is their preferred and usual lifestyle or for subjects who are and will continue to be abstinent from penile-vaginal intercourse on a long term and persistent basis:

Contraceptive subdermal implant that meets the standard operating procedure (SOP) effectiveness criteria including a \<1% rate of failure per year, as stated in the product label Intrauterine device or intrauterine system that meets the SOP effectiveness criteria including a \<1% rate of failure per year, as stated in the product label Oral Contraceptive, either combined or progestogen alone Injectable progestogen Contraceptive vaginal ring Percutaneous contraceptive patches Male partner sterilization with documentation of azoospermia prior to the female subject's entry into the study, and this male is the sole partner for that subject These allowed methods of contraception are only effective when used consistently, correctly and in accordance with the product label. The investigator is responsible for ensuring that subjects understand how to properly use these methods of contraception.

• Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): An established clinical history of COPD in accordance with the definition by the American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society.
• COPD Disease severity: A post-albuterol forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1)/forced vital capacity (FVC) ratio of =\<0.70 and a post-albuterol FEV1 >=30 and =\<80% of predicted normal values calculated using the European Respiratory Society Global Lung Function Initiative reference equations at Visit 1.
• Smoking history: Current or former cigarette smokers with a history of cigarette smoking of >= 10 pack-years at Visit 1. Former smokers are defined as those who have stopped smoking for at least 6 months prior to Visit 1.

Number of pack years = (number of cigarettes per day / 20) x number of years smoked (for example, 20 cigarettes per day for 10 years, or 10 cigarettes per day for 20 years both equal 10 pack-years).

Note: Pipe and cigar use cannot be used to calculate pack-year history.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Asthma: A current diagnosis of asthma (Subjects with a prior history of asthma are eligible if they have a current diagnosis of COPD).
• Other Respiratory Disorders: Known alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, active lung infections (such as tuberculosis), and lung cancer are absolute exclusionary conditions. Other excluded conditions include and not limited to clinically significant bronchiectasis, pulmonary hypertension unrelated to COPD, sarcoidosis, or interstitial lung disease. Or a subject who, in the opinion of the investigator, has any other significant respiratory conditions in addition to COPD
• Other Diseases/Abnormalities: Subjects with historical or current evidence of clinically significant cardiovascular, neurological, psychiatric, renal, hepatic, immunological, endocrine (including uncontrolled diabetes or thyroid disease) or hematological abnormalities that are uncontrolled and/or a previous history of cancer in remission for \<5 years prior to Visit 1 (localized carcinoma of the skin that has been resected for cure is not exclusionary). Significant is defined as any disease that, in the opinion of the investigator, would put the safety of the subject at risk through participation, or which would affect the efficacy or safety analysis if the disease/condition exacerbated during the study.
• Poorly controlled COPD: defined as the occurrence of 'acute worsening of COPD that is managed with corticosteroid and/or antibiotics or that requires treatment prescribed by a physician in the 6 weeks prior to Screening (Visit 1)', or 'subjects who are hospitalized due to acute worsening of COPD within 12 weeks of Visit 1'.
• History of COPD exacerbation: subject who have had more than one exacerbation (moderate or severe) within the 12 months prior to Visit 1.

• Use of long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT): Oxygen therapy prescribed for greater than 12 hours a day. As-needed oxygen use (that is, =\<12 hours per day) is not exclusionary.
• Nebulized Therapy: Regular use (prescribed for use every day, not for as-needed use) of short-acting bronchodilators (for example, albuterol) via nebulized therapy.
• Lung Resection: Lung volume reduction surgery within the 12 months prior to Visit 1.
• Clinically significant abnormal laboratory finding at Visit 1.
• Liver Disease: Current or chronic history of liver disease, or known hepatic or biliary abnormalities (with the exception of Gilbert's syndrome or asymptomatic gallstones).
• Presence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), or positive hepatitis C antibody test result at screening. Subjects with positive Hepatitis C antibody due to prior resolved disease can be enrolled, only if a confirmatory negative Hepatitis C ribonucleic acid polymerase chain reaction test is obtained.
• Abnormal and clinically significant findings from 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) performed at Visit 1. Site investigators will be provided with ECG over-read conducted by a centralized independent cardiologist, to assist in evaluation of subject eligibility. For this study, an abnormal and clinically significant ECG that would preclude a subject from entering the trial is defined as a 12-lead tracing that is interpreted as, but not limited to, any of the following:

Sinus bradycardia \<45 beats per minute (bpm) (Note: Sinus bradycardia \<45 bpm should be confirmed by two additional readings at least 5 minutes apart) Sinus tachycardia >=110 bpm (Note: Sinus tachycardia >=110 should be confirmed by two additional readings at least 5 minutes apart) Multifocal atrial tachycardia (wandering atrial pacemaker with rate >100 bpm) PR interval >240 milliseconds (msec) Evidence of Mobitz II second degree or third degree atrioventricular (AV) block Pathological Q waves (defined as wide [>0.04 seconds] and deep [>0.4 millivolt (mV) (4 millimeters [mm] with 10 mm/mV setting)] or >25% of the height of the corresponding R wave, providing the R wave was >0.5 mV [5 mm with 10 mm/mV setting], appearing in at least two contiguous leads (Note: prior evidence [that is, ECG obtained at least 12 months prior) of pathological Q waves that are unchanged are not exclusionary; and the investigator will determine if the subject is precluded from entering the study) Evidence of ventricular ectopic couplets, bigeminy, trigeminy or multifocal premature ventricular complexes.

For subjects without complete right bundle branch block: QT interval corrected by Fridericia's method (QTc[F]) >=450 msec or an ECG that is unsuitable for QT measurements (for example, poor defined termination of the T wave) For subjects with complete right bundle branch block: QTc(F) >=480msec or an ECG that is unsuitable for QT measurements (for example, poor defined termination of the T wave) (Note: All potentially exclusionary QT measurements should be confirmed by two additional readings at least 5 minutes apart) ST-T wave abnormalities (excluding non-specific ST-T wave abnormalities) (Note: prior evidence (that is, ECG obtained at least 12 months prior) of ST-T waves that are unchanged are not exclusionary and the investigator will determine if the subject is precluded from entering the study) Clinically significant conduction abnormalities (for example, Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome or bifascicular block defined as complete left bundle branch block or complete right bundle branch block with concomitant left fascicular block) Clinically significant arrhythmias (for example, atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response, ventricular tachycardia)
