Registered outcomes8
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Number of Participants Reporting Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious TEAEs | Up to 68 Weeks | An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of a study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. A TEAE is an AE that begins on or after the first dose of study drug and before the stop of study drug + 7 days or begins before the first dose of study drug and worsens on or after the first dose of study drug and before the stop of study drug + 7 days. A Serious adverse event (SAE) is any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect or any other situation according to medical or scientific judgment. |
| Primary | Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Changes in Chemistry Parameters | Up to 68 Weeks | Blood samples were collected for the analysis of chemistry parameters: Glucose, sodium, potassium, calcium, inorganic phosphate, total protein, albumin, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, uric acid, total bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, gamma glutamyl transferase, lactate dehydrogenase and creatine phosphokinase. |
| Primary | Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Changes in Hematology Parameters | Up to 68 Weeks | Blood samples were collected for the analysis of hematology parameters: hemoglobin (including mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular hemoglobin, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration), hematocrit, red blood cell count, total white blood cell count, platelet count. Differential blood counts, including basophils, eosinophils, neutrophils, lymphocytes, and monocytes |
| Primary | Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Changes in Serum Coagulation Parameters | Up to 68 Weeks | Blood samples were collected for the analysis of Serum coagulation parameters: International normalized ratio, prothrombin time, activated partial thromboplastin time and fibrinogen. |
| Secondary | Percent Change From Baseline in the Ratio of Phosphorylated HSP27 (pHSP27) /Total HSP27 in Sorbitol-stimulated Whole Blood | Baseline and at Week 44 | Phosphorylated HSP27 in peripheral whole blood with ex-vivo sorbitol stimulation and in skeletal muscle (without sorbitol stimulation) was measured at specified time points. The pre-treatment value was considered as Baseline for change from Baseline calculations. The geometric mean for fold percent change from Baseline (and 95% confidence interval) in pHSP27/total HSP27 was calculated. Percent change from baseline = 100\*(exp(mean of change from baseline on the log-transformed scale) - 1). |
| Secondary | Percent Change From Baseline in Ratio of pHSP27/Total HSP27 in Muscle | Baseline and at Week 8 | Phosphorylated HSP27 in skeletal muscle (without sorbitol stimulation) was measured at specified time points. The pre-treatment value was considered as Baseline for change from Baseline calculations. The geometric mean for fold percent change from Baseline (and 95% confidence interval) in pHSP27/total HSP27 was calculated. Percent change from baseline = 100\*(exp(mean of change from baseline on the log-transformed scale) - 1). |
| Secondary | Plasma Concentration of Losmapimod | Post-dose at Baseline, Week 4, Week 8, Week 20, Week 32, Week 44, and Week 56 | Blood samples were collected to measure the plasma concentration of losmapimod at specified timepoints. |
| Secondary | Muscle Concentration of Losmapimod | Post dose at Baseline, Week 4, Week 8 and Week 44 | Muscle biopsies were collected to measure the concentration of losmapimod at specified timepoints. |
