What does the primary outcome measure?

To evaluate the safety and tolerability of MK0633 in adolescent asthma patients. (time frame: Blood and urine samples will be collected at specified intervals for 72 hours after study drug administration.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
