- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change From Baseline in Daytime Composite Symptom Score baseline, week 12 The individual symptoms at each time point to be monitored are: cough, wheeze, and shortness of breath.
The individual symptoms were scored using a four point scale:
0=no symptoms; 1=mild symptoms; 2=moderate symptoms; 3=severe symptoms
Daily composite symptom score is based on the average of the individual symptom scores for a day. Daytime composite symptom score is defined as average of the last 5 days' daily composite symptom scores within the last 7 days immediately preceding the end day of that week. The range for the daytime composite symptom score is 0 (no symptoms) to 3 (severe symptoms). A negative change indicates an improvement of symptoms and a positive change indicates a worsening of symptoms.Change From Baseline in Nighttime Composite Symptom Score baseline, week 12 The individual symptoms at each time point to be monitored are: cough, wheeze, and shortness of breath.
The individual symptoms were scored using a four point scale:
0=no symptoms; 1=mild symptoms; 2=moderate symptoms; 3=severe symptoms
Nightly composite symptom score is based on the average of the individual symptom scores for the night. Nightime composite symptom score is defined as average of the last 5 days' nightly composite symptom scores within the last 7 nights immediately preceding the end day of that week. The range for the nighttime composite symptom score is 0 (no symptoms) to 3 (severe symptoms). A negative change indicates an improvement of symptoms and a positive change indicates a worsening of symptoms.

Name Time Method Change From Baseline in Nighttime Individual Symptom Scores baseline, week 12 The individual symptoms at each time point to be monitored are: cough, wheeze, and shortness of breath.
The individual symptoms were scored using a four point scale:
0=no symptoms; 1=mild symptoms; 2=moderate symptoms; 3=severe symptoms
Individual nighttime symptom score is defined as an average of the last 5 nights' individual symptom scores within the last 7 nights immediately preceding the end day of that week. A negative change indicates an improvement of symptoms and a positive change indicates a worsening of symptoms.Change From Baseline in FEV1% Predicted baseline, week 12 The forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) is the amount forced of air exhaled in 1 second. The percent predicted is calculated for age, gender, and height. Subjects had to perform at least 3 acceptable maneuvers into a spirometer and the largest volume from the 3 maneuvers was selected. An increase indicates an improvement (a greater volume of air expired).
Change From Baseline in PEF baseline, week 12 The peak expiratory flow (PEF) is the highest air flow achieved from a maximum forced expiratory maneuver measured in liters of air per minute (L/min). Subjects had to perform at least 3 acceptable maneuvers into a PEF meter. An increase indicates an improvement (a greater volume of air expired).
