What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percentage of Subjects With Any Adverse Event, Unexpected Adverse Event, Unexpected Serious Adverse Event, Adverse Event Leading to Discontinuation

    An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a medicinal product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An adverse event could therefore be any unfavourable and unintended sign (e.g. an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product.

    An adverse event was assessed as unexpected if not listed in Local Product Information (LPI) and Company Core Data Sheet (CCDS).

    Percentage of subjects with any Adverse Event, unexpected Adverse Event, unexpected Serious Adverse Event, Adverse Event leading to discontinuation is reported. Percentages were rounded to two decimal places.

    Measured: From the signing date on Informed Consent Form (ICF) to 28 days after last administration date of Vahelva® Respimat®, up to 52 (±2) weeks+ 28 days.

  2. Percentage of Subjects With Any Adverse Drug Reaction, Serious Adverse Drug Reaction, Unexpected Adverse Drug Reaction, Unexpected Serious Adverse Drug Reaction, Adverse Drug Reaction Leading to Discontinuation

    An adverse drug reaction (ADR) was defined as a response to a medicinal product which is noxious and unintended. Response in this context means that a causal relationship between a medicinal product and an adverse event is at least a reasonable possibility. Adverse reactions may arise from use of the product within or outside the terms of the marketing authorization or from occupational exposure. Conditions of use outside the marketing authorization include off label use, overdose, misuse, abuse and medication errors. Investigator was primarily responsible to assess ADR relatedness.

    An ADR was assessed as unexpected if not listed in Local Product Information (LPI) and Company Core Data Sheet (CCDS).

    Percentage of subjects with any Adverse Drug Reaction, serious Adverse Drug Reaction, unexpected Adverse Drug Reaction, unexpected Serious Adverse Drug Reaction, Adverse Drug Reaction leading to discontinuation is reported. Percentages were rounded to two decimal places.

    Measured: From the signing date on Informed Consent Form (ICF) to 28 days after last administration date of Vahelva® Respimat®, up to 52 (±2) weeks+ 28 days.

  3. Percentage of Subjects With Any Adverse Event (AE) in the Long-term Safety Analysis Set

    An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a medicinal product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An adverse event could therefore be any unfavourable and unintended sign (e.g. an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product.

    Percentage of participants with any AE is reported. Percentages were rounded to two decimal places.

    Measured: From the signing date on Informed Consent Form (ICF) to 28 days after last administration date of Vahelva® Respimat®, up to 52 (±2) weeks+ 28 days.

  4. Change From Baseline in Pre-dose Percent Predicted Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second (FEV1) to Week 24 in the Effectiveness Analysis Set

    FEV1 is the maximum amount of air that can be forcefully exhaled in one second. It assesses the degree of airway obstruction in a routine test called spirometry, via a spirometer. FEVI was measured before the administration of Vahelva® Respimat® (pre-dose FEV1) at baseline and at Week 24 (±2 weeks). Pre-dose percent predicted FEV1 was calculated by converting the spirometer reading to a percentage of what would be predicted as normal FEV1 based on a several personal factors (e.g. sex, age, etc.).

    Change from baseline in pre-dose percent predicted FEV1 to Week 24 was calculated as: pre-dose percent predicted FEV1 value at Week 24 (±2 weeks) - pre-dose percent predicted FEV1 value at baseline.

    Measured: At baseline (30 days before baseline visit (Visit 1)) and Week 24 (±2 weeks).

  5. Change From Baseline in Pre-dose Percent Predicted Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second (FEV1) to Week 52 in the Effectiveness Analysis Set
