- Inclusion criteria:
- Greater than or equal to (>=)1 pharmacy claim for TT during the participant identification period of 01-Sep-2017 through 31-Mar-2019. TT will be defined as a pharmacy claim for FF/UMEC/VI or MITT for >=30 consecutive days of overlap in the days’ supply of Inhaled corticosteroids (ICS), Long-acting beta-2 agonist (LABA), and Long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA). The index date will be the first date with TT during the participant identification period. For the MITT cohort the index date will be assigned as the first day with all three triple therapy components on hand.
