Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryClinical Global Impression (CGI) Disease StatusBaseline (BL; Month 0), Month 3, Month 6, Month 9, Month 12, Month 15, Month 18, Month 21, Month 24
The CGI is a non-disease-specific evaluation of participants' overall health status assessed on a 10 mm visual analogue scale (VAS) ranging from "0" (free of complaints) to "10" (strong discomfort). The closer the score to 0, the better the health status.
PrimaryChange From Baseline in FFbH (Funktionsfragebogen Hannover) Questionnaire ScoreBaseline and Months 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24
The FFbH is a participant questionnaire assessing disability/functional impairment. Ability to perform 18 activities of daily living are scored on a 3 point scale (2=Yes, 1=Yes but with effort, and 0=No or with assistance) and summed. Remaining functional capacity is calculated as the percent of the maximum number of score points (FFbH\[%\] = (Attained score\*100)/(2\*n) where n is the number of completed responses) with range from 0 = total loss of functional capacity to 100 = maximal functional capacity. Increase from baseline in FFbH score signifies improvement. The FFbH is similar to Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) but is more widely used in Germany.
PrimaryChange From Baseline in Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue (FACIT-F) ScoreBaseline and Months 3, 6, 12, 18, 24
The FACIT-F scale assesses self-reported fatigue and its impact upon daily activities and function. 13 items consisting of fatigue, weakness, listlessness, tiredness, trouble with starting things, trouble with finishing things, energy, activity, sleep, eating, help doing activities, frustration, and social activities are scored on a scale of 0 (not at all) to 4 (very much), except energy and activity which are reversed scored. Individual item scores are then summed to provide the final FACIT-F score with range from 0 (lowest) to 52 (highest quality of life). Increase from baseline in FACIT-F score signifies improvement.
PrimaryChange From Baseline in EuroQol- 5 Dimension 3 Level Version (EQ-5D-3L) Questionnaire ScoreBaseline and Months 6, 12, 18, 24
The EQ-5D-3L is a health profile questionnaire that assesses quality of life along 5 dimensions. Participants rate 5 aspects of health (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression) by choosing from 3 answering options (1=no problems; 2=some problems; 3=extreme problems). The summed score ranges from 1-15 with "1" corresponding to no problems and "15" corresponding to severe problems in the 5 dimensions. Decrease from baseline in EQ-5D-3L signifies improvement.
PrimaryNumber of Participants Who Experienced at Least One Adverse EventUp to 24 months
An adverse event is defined as any unfavorable and unintended sign including an abnormal laboratory finding, symptom or disease associated with the use of a medical treatment or procedure, regardless of whether it is considered related to the medical treatment or procedure.
PrimaryNumber of Participants Who Experienced at Least One Serious Adverse EventUp to 24 months
A serious adverse event is defined as any unfavorable and unintended sign including an abnormal laboratory finding, symptom or disease associated with the use of a medical treatment or procedure, regardless of whether it is considered related to the medical treatment or procedure that results in death, life-threatening adverse event, permanent or significant disability / unfitness for work, hospital treatment (i.e., admission to hospital) or prolongation of a patient's length of stay, or congenital deformity or birth defect.
