Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Change From Period Baseline at Week 2 in Constant Work Rate (CWR) Endurance Time Relative to Placebo
Baseline and week 2 of each treatment period

The CWR defines how long it takes until the participant reaches symptom limitations while simultaneously being monitored and is called "CWR time to intolerance," which determined the "CWR endurance time". Positive change indicates an improvement from baseline (i.e., a favorable outcome).

Change From Baseline to Week 12 in the Percent Predicted Slow Vital Capacity (SVC)
Baseline to Week 12

Slow vital capacity was measured using a spirometer (in units of liters). Following 3 to 5 breaths at rest, patients were instructed to take as deep an inspiration as possible followed by a maximum exhalation (blowing out all the air in their lungs). Values obtained were converted to percent predicted values using the Global Lung Initiative equation (ie, the test result as a percent of predicted values for patients of similar demographic and baseline characteristics \[eg, height, age, sex\]).

Change From Baseline to Week 8 in Forced Vital Capacity (FVC)
baseline and 8 weeks

FVC was measured using a calibrated spirometer (in units of liters). Patients were instructed to take as deep an inspiration as possible followed by a maximum exhalation (blowing out all the air in their lungs).

Change From Baseline to Week 8 in Maximum Inspiratory Pressure (MIP)
baseline and 8 weeks

MIP was measured (in units of cm H20) using a calibrated spirometer with an inspiratory pressure valve attached. For the test, patients were asked to inhale as forcefully as possible, to their maximum pressure.

Change From Baseline to Week 8 in Maximum Expiratory Pressure (MEP)
baseline and 8 weeks

MEP was measured (in units of cm H20) using a calibrated spirometer with an exspiratory pressure valve attached. For the test, patients were asked to maximally inhale then perform a forced exhalation with as forcefully as possible.

Muscle Strength Mega-Score at Week 8
baseline and 8 weeks

Muscle strength of 3 muscle groups (elbow flexion, knee extension, and shoulder abduction) were measured bilaterally using a hand-held dynamometer. Muscle strength was measured twice for each body location; if the variability between the 2 measures was \> 15%, a third measure was obtained. The maximum muscle strength of the 2 measurements was identified and transformed as a percent change from baseline using the equation: (\[postbaseline value - baseline value\] / baseline value) × 100. The mega-score was a composite score that averaged strength across the 3 muscle groups. It was calculated as the mean of the non-missing transformed muscle strength scores among the 3 muscle groups each measure bilaterally (totaling 6 body locations).

Change From Baseline to Week 8 in the Hammersmith Functional Motor Scale-Expanded (HFMS-E)
baseline and 8 weeks

The HFMS-E evaluated the level of independent mobility and motor skills through assessment of 33 test-items, each scored from 0 (worse) to 2 (better). The total score was calculated as the sum of the scores among the 33 test items, and has a range from 0 to 66.

Change From Baseline to Week 8 in Revised Upper Limb Module (RULM)
baseline and 8 weeks

The RULM assessed motor function in the upper limbs (specifically shoulder, elbow, wrist, and hand function) that related to activities of everyday life. The RULM consisted of 20 items, 1 of which was scored on a 7-point scale (from 0 to 6), 18 were scored on a 3-point scale (from 0 to 2), and 1 was scored on a 2-point scale (0 or 1). The total score was the sum of each response and could range from a minimum of 0 to a maximum of 43 points. Higher scores reflected better motor function.

Change From Baseline to Week 8 in the TUG Test
baseline and 8 weeks

The TUG test measured the time (in seconds) it took for a patient to rise from a chair, walk 3 meters, turn around, walk back to the chair and sit down.

Change From Baseline to Week 8 in the 6MWT
baseline and 8 weeks

The 6MWT measured the distance (in meters) a patient walked in 6 minutes.

Patient Global Assessment at the End of Week 8
8 weeks

Patients assessed whether they felt the same, better, or worse than prior to dosing on Day 1.

Investigator Global Assessment at the End of Week 8
8 weeks

The Investigator assessed whether patient appeared the same, better, or worse than prior to dosing on Day 1.
