Registered outcomes8
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Change in Forced Vital Capacity (36 Months) | Measured at baseline and 36 months | Change from baseline in the Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) measurement at 36 months. FVC is the volume of air that can be forcibly blown out from the lungs after full inspiration. FVC is recorded as the percentage of predicted volume (predicted FVC volume is calculated based on subject's height, age, sex, and weight). |
| Secondary | Change in Forced Vital Capacity (12 Months) | Measured at baseline and 12 months | Change from baseline in the Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) measurement at 12 months. FVC is the volume of air that can be forcibly blown out from the lungs after full inspiration. FVC is recorded as the percentage of predicted volume (predicted FVC volume is calculated based on subject's height, age, sex, and weight). |
| Secondary | Change in Total Lung Capacity (36 Months) | Measured at baseline and 36 months | Change from baseline in Total Lung Capacity (TLC) measured at 36 months. TLC is the volume in the lungs at maximal inflation. TLC is recorded as the percentage of predicted volume based on subject's height, age, sex, and weight. |
| Secondary | Change in Total Lung Capacity (12 Months) | Measured at baseline and 12 months | Change from baseline in Total Lung Capacity (TLC) measured at 12 months. TLC is the volume in the lungs at maximal inflation. TLC is recorded as the percentage of predicted volume based on subject's height, age, sex, and weight. |
| Secondary | Change in Adjusted Diffusing Capacity of the Lung for Carbon Monoxide (36 Months) | Measured at baseline and 36 months | Change from baseline in adjusted Diffusing Capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCOa) measured at 36 months. DLCOa measures gas uptake during a single inspiration in a standard time, adjusted for subject's hemoglobin levels. |
| Secondary | Change in Adjusted Diffusing Capacity of the Lung for Carbon Monoxide (12 Months) | Measured at baseline and 12 months | Change from baseline in adjusted Diffusing Capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCOa) measured at 12 months. DLCOa measures gas uptake during a single inspiration in a standard time, adjusted for subject's hemoglobin levels. |
| Secondary | Change in 6 Minute Walk Test (36 Months) | Measured at baseline and 36 months | Change from baseline of the 6 minute walk test (6MWT) at 36 months. The 6MWT measures the distance that a patient can quickly walk on a flat hard surface in a period of six minutes. |
| Secondary | Change in 6 Minute Walk Test (12 Months) | Measured at baseline and 12 months | Change from baseline of the 6 minute walk test (6MWT) at 12 months. The 6MWT measures the distance that a patient can quickly walk on a flat hard surface in a period of six minutes. |
