AstraZeneca said its new drug for COPD showed benefits across a broad patient population in late-stage clinical trials, boosting a medicine the company expects to generate multibillion-dollar sales.

AstraZeneca said on Tuesday its cancer drug Imfinzi combined with Amgen's targeted immunotherapy Imdelltra significantly improved overall survival in first-line extensive-stage small cell lung cancer in a late-stage trial.

AstraZeneca released full results from two successful late-stage trials on its experimental drug for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The detailed data reinforces hopes that the product could be a breakthrough treatment for COPD and reach AstraZeneca's peak annual sales forecast of more than $5 billion for the drug.
