- Change from baseline in frequency of adverse events (AEs) [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 18 ]An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a study subject administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment under investigation. Frequency of a given AE is determined by dividing the total number of that AE observed during the study by the total number of subjects in the study.
- Change from baseline in severity of AEs [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 18 ]
Severity of AEs are categorized as mild, moderate or severe as described below:
- Mild - Events require minimal or no treatment and do not interfere with the subject's daily activities.
- Moderate - Events result in a low level of inconvenience or concern with the therapeutic measures. Moderate events may cause some interference with functioning.
- Severe - Events interrupt a subject's usual daily activity and may require systemic drug therapy or other treatment. Severe events are usually potentially life-threatening or incapacitating.
- Change from baseline in vital sign measurements - pulse [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 18 ]Comparison of a subject's pulse rate at the beginning of the study to that subject's pulse rate at the completion of the study.
- Change from baseline in vital sign measurements - blood pressure [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 18 ]Comparison of a subject's blood pressure at the beginning of the study to that subject's blood pressure at the completion of the study.
- Change from baseline in vital sign measurements - respiration rate [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 18 ]Comparison of a subject's respiration rate (number of breaths taken per minute while at rest) at the beginning of the study to that subject's respiration rate at the completion of the study.
- Change from baseline in vital sign measurements - temperature [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 18 ]Comparison of a subject's body temperature at the beginning of the study to that subject's body temperature at the completion of the study.
- Change from baseline in blood oxygen saturation level [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 18 ]Comparison of a subject's blood oxygen saturation level (measured at rest using a pulse oximeter) at the beginning of the study to that subject's blood oxygen saturation level at the completion of the study.
- Incidence of clinical laboratory abnormalities [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 18 ]Assessment of the clinical laboratory measurements (chemistry, hematology, urinalysis parameters) that are above or below the laboratory normal ranges. Incidence of clinical laboratory abnormalities is determined by dividing the total number of clinical laboratory abnormalities by the total number of subjects in the study.
- Severity of clinical laboratory abnormalities [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 18 ]Assessment of the severity (defined as either clinically significant or not clinically significant) for the clinical laboratory abnormalities observed during the study.
- Number of hospitalizations [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 18 ]Assessment of the number of hospitalizations for any reason observed among all subjects from the beginning of the study to the completion of the study.
- Change from baseline of FVC (forced vital capacity) [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 12 ]FVC is the amount of air that can be forcibly exhaled from your lungs after taking the deepest breath possible, as measured during a spirometry test.
- Change from baseline of DLCO (diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide) [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 12 ]DLCO is a measurement of the ease of transfer for carbon monoxide molecules from alveolar gas to the hemoglobin of the red blood cells in the pulmonary circulation.
- Change from baseline of patient reported outcomes by the University of California-San Diego (UCSD) Shortness of Breath Questionnaire (SOBQ) [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 12 ]The UCSD SOBQ consists of 24 questions (21 assess severity of shortness of breath during specific activities of daily living; 3 additional items ask about limitations due to: shortness of breath, fear of harm from overexertion and fear of shortness of breath). Each question has a 6-point scale (0 = "not at all" to 5 = "maximal or unable to do because of breathlessness"), resulting in a total score ranging from 0 to 120 (a higher score represents a worse outcome).
- Change from baseline of FVC [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 6 ]
- Change from baseline of FVC [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 18 ]
- Change from baseline of DLCO [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 6 ]
- Change from baseline of DLCO [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 18 ]
- Change from baseline of patient reported outcomes by the UCSD SOBQ [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 6 ]
- Change from baseline of patient reported outcomes by the UCSD SOBQ [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 18 ]
