Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Change from baseline to Week 16 in FEV1
Change from baseline to Week 12 in FEV1
The primary endpoint is the occurrence of a Class I lens event for nuclear (NO), cortical (C), or posterior subcapsular (P) lens opacification within 12 months.
A Class I lens event is defined as any of the following events in either eye:
- 1.Increase from baseline in LOCS III grade of ≥ 0.5 (NO), ≥ 0.8 (C), or ≥ 0.5 (P)
- 2.Cataract surgery
Subject's height measured w. standard stadiometry techniques. 4 acceptable serial measurements taken at each visit on same equipment by a qualified technician.Median of 4 measurements used the subject's stadiometer height data

Secondary Endpoints

Symptom scores, rescue albuterol use and morning peak flow measurements
- 1.Change from baseline to Month 12 in LOCS III grade for (a) nuclear opalescence, (b) cortical opacity, and (c) posterior subcapsular opacity.
- 2.Occurrence within 12 months in either eye of a Class II lens event: Increase from baseline in LOCS III grade of ≥ 0.9 (NO), ≥ 1.5 (C), or ≥ 0.9 (P), or cataract surgery.
