ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryTime to First Serious Asthma ExacerbationUp to 21 months
Defined as the number of days from start of treatment up to the first date when an asthma exacerbation becomes serious. A serious asthma exacerbation was one that resulted in hospitalization, intubation or death.
SecondaryCumulative Incidence of the First Serious Asthma Exacerbation Resulting in Hospitalization, Intubation or Death.up to 21 monthsThe number of patients with at least one serious asthma exacerbation over the course of the study. A serious asthma exacerbation was one that resulted in hospitalization, intubation or death.
SecondaryPatients With Asthma Exacerbations That Required Treatment With Systemic CorticosteroidsUp to 21 monthsNumber of patients requiring treatment with systemic corticosteroids (oral or parenteral) over the course of the study (up to 21 months).
SecondaryNumber of Patients With at Least One Asthma Worsening Post-baselineUp to 21 months
The criterion for asthma worsening were: decrease in peak expiratory flow (PEF) \>= 20% from mean baseline on \>= 3 consecutive days, nighttime symptom score \>= 2 on \>= 2 consecutive nights, decrease in forced expiration volume in 1 second (FEV1) \>=20% from baseline at evening visits, daytime symptom score of 3 or 4 on \>= 2 consecutive days, requiring an urgent unscheduled visit for medical care, 24 hour rescue medication use \>= 8 puffs on \>= 2 consecutive days, and any other clinically important symptoms (pre-specified MedDRA preferred terms).
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Trough Forced Expiration Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) at Final VisitBaseline to the end of treatment (varying durations, up to 21 months)
Spirometry was conducted according to internationally accepted standards. Trough FEV1 was measured 15 minutes before dosing; measurements within 6 hours of rescue medication use were set to missing. Repeated measures of analysis of covariance model: change from baseline to trough FEV1 = treatment + visit + treatment\*visit interaction + baseline FEV1 + region + asthma related hospitalization in the last 12 months + asthma worsening in the last 12 months + African American patient.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Forced Expiration Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) at Final VisitBaseline to the end of treatment (varying durations, up to 21 months). At the following timepoints: 5 minutes post-dose, 30 minutes post-dose, 1 hour post-dose and 2 hours post-dose
Spirometry was conducted according to internationally accepted standards. Change from baseline at final visit. FEV1 data taken within 6 hours of rescue medication was excluded from the analysis. Repeated measures of analysis of covariance model: change from baseline to final visit FEV1 = treatment + visit + treatment\*visit interaction + baseline FEV1 + region + asthma related hospitalization in the last 12 months + asthma worsening in the last 12 months + African American patient.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) at Final VisitBaseline to the end of treatment (varying durations, up to 21 months). At the following timepoints: 5 minutes post-dose, 30 minutes post-dose, 1 hour post-dose and 2 hours post-dose
Spirometry was conducted according to internationally accepted standards. Change from baseline at final visit. FVC data taken within 6 hours of rescue medication was excluded from the analysis. Repeated measures of analysis of covariance model: change from baseline to final visit FVC = treatment + visit + treatment\*visit interaction + baseline FVC + region + asthma related hospitalization in the last 12 months + asthma worsening in the last 12 months + African American patient.
SecondaryChanges From Baseline in Morning Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF) and Trough Evening PEF Averaged Over the Entire Post-baseline PeriodBaseline to the end of treatment (varying durations, up to 21 months)
PEF was performed every morning and evening prior to study medication use except evenings on the day of clinic visits. Baseline is average over the last 14 days prior to start of treatment. Analysis of covariance model: change from baseline in PEF = treatment + baseline PEF + region + history of asthma related hospitalization in the past 12 months + history of asthma worsening in the past 12 months + African American patient.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Percentage of Days With no Asthma Symptoms During the Morning, Daytime and NighttimeBaseline to the end of treatment (varying durations, up to 21 months)
Baseline = the last 14 days prior to start of treatment. Analysis of covariance model: Change from baseline = treatment + baseline value + region + history of asthma related hospitalization in past 12 months + history of asthma worsening in past 12 months + African American patient.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Average Asthma Symptom Score Total, Daytime and NighttimeBaseline to the end of treatment (varying durations, up to 21 months)
Total asthma symptom score = morning symptoms (0, 1) + daytime score (0-4) + nighttime score (0-4). The range is from 0 to 9. A lower number indicates improvement. Baseline = the last 14 days prior to start of treatment. Analysis of covariance model: Change from baseline = treatment + baseline value + region + history of asthma related hospitalization in past 12 months + history of asthma worsening in past 12 months + African American patient.
