Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 65 years (Adult, Older Adult)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
Time Frame: Up to End of Study (up to Week 36)
TEAEs were defined as adverse events (AEs) with an onset following administration of the first dose of study drug. AEs ware defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered study drug and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the study drug. Worsening of a pre-existing medical condition should have been considered an AE if there was either an increase in severity, frequency, or duration of the condition or an association with significantly worse outcomes. SAEs were defined as any AE that, in the view of either the Investigator or Sponsor, resulted in any of the following outcomes as fatal, life-threatening, required in-participant hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, a congenital anomaly/birth defect, an important medical event. A summary of all SAEs and Other AEs (nonserious) regardless of causality is located in 'Reported Adverse Events' Section.
Up to End of Study (up to Week 36)
Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Physical Examination Abnormality
Time Frame: Up to End of Study (up to Week 36)
Body systems that were evaluated during the physical examination included general appearance, head, eyes, ears, nose, throat, cardiovascular system, respiratory system, gastrointestinal system (abdomen), lymphatic system, musculoskeletal system, skin, psychiatric, and neurologic. Neurologic examination included assessment of mental status, memory, cranial nerves, motor function, reflexes, and sensory testing. A summary of all Serious Adverse Events and Other Adverse Events (nonserious) regardless of causality is located in the 'Reported Adverse Events' Section.
Up to End of Study (up to Week 36)
Number of Participants With a Vital Sign-Related Event Resulting in a TEAE
Time Frame: Up to End of Study (up to Week 36)
The vital sign parameters that were evaluated included blood pressure, pulse and respiration rates, and body temperature. Vital signs abnormalities that were considered by the Investigator to be clinically significant were reported as AEs if the finding represented a change from baseline. A summary of all Serious Adverse Events and Other Adverse Events (nonserious) regardless of causality is located in the 'Reported Adverse Events' Section.
Up to End of Study (up to Week 36)
Number of Participants With a Clinically Significant Pulmonary Function Event Resulting in a TEAE
Time Frame: Up to End of Study (up to Week 36)
Pulmonary evaluations included pulmonary function tests. Clinically significant changes were to be reported as adverse events. A summary of all Serious Adverse Events and Other Adverse Events (nonserious) regardless of causality is located in the 'Reported Adverse Events' Section.
Up to End of Study (up to Week 36)
Number of Participants With a Clinical Laboratory Abnormality Resulting in an AE
Time Frame: Up to End of Study (Up to Week 36)
Laboratory parameters included hematology (hematocrit, hemoglobin, red blood cell count, white blood cell count with differential [neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils], and platelet count); serum chemistries (blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, total bilirubin, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, gamma-glutamyl transferase, alkaline phosphatase, total protein, sodium, potassium, bicarbonate, calcium, chloride, magnesium, inorganic phosphate, creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, C-reactive protein, troponin, myoglobin, insulin-like growth factor 1, and cholesterol [nonfasting]); and urinalysis (color, pH, specific gravity, protein, glucose, ketones, and blood). Clinically significant laboratory abnormalities were based upon Investigator's discretion. A summary of all Serious Adverse Events and Other Adverse Events (nonserious) regardless of causality is located in the 'Reported Adverse Events' Section.
Up to End of Study (Up to Week 36)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
