Summary:

      The primary objective of this trial is to investigate the safety and tolerability of BI
      1265162 in healthy male subjects following inhalative administration of single rising doses.

      single dosing.
    

Eligibility criteria:

        Inclusion Criteria:

             medication or its excipients)

          -  Use of drugs within 30 days prior to administration of trial medication if that might
             reasonably influence the results of the trial (incl. QT/QTc interval prolongation)

          -  Participation in another trial where an investigational drug has been administered
             within 60 days prior to planned administration of trial medication, or current
             participation in another trial involving administration of investigational

          -  Smoker (more than 10 cigarettes or 3 cigars or 3 pipes per day)
