LONDON--GlaxoSmithKline PLC (GSK.LN) Thursday said the closed-triple combination therapy for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease application is expected to be filed to the U.S. regulatory body by the end of 2016, rather than the first half of 2018, as previously expected.

The healthcare company said it has made forward steps to filing the application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, together with and Innoviva Inc. (INVA).

The companies continue to expect an E.U. regulatory submission of the therapy by the end of 2016, the company said.
