Trial Outcomes & Findings for Efficacy and Safety of Ciclesonide (CIC) Administered Twice Daily in Pediatric Patients With Asthma. (NCT NCT00392288)

NCT ID: NCT00392288

Last Updated: 2017-02-01

Results Overview

Change in FEV1 (Percent of predicted) from baseline to week 12. FEV1 was measured only in children between 6 to \<12 years only. Least Squares Mean were adjusted for Baseline FEV1, age \[yrs\], pooled center, previous corticosteroid therapy and holding chamber.

Participant Flow

Screening period 7-14 days, randomization with subsequent treatment period over 12 weeks

The number of subjects in section Participant Flow is related to the number of randomized subjects (= subject who were eligible for treatment period). This number is different to the number of subjects of the Intention to Treat (ITT) population in Outcome Measures. The statistical analyses of the Outcome Measures is related to the ITT population.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and Week 12

Population: Analyses are based on children of the ITT population. It includes all randomized patients who have a baseline and a valid post-randomization lung function measurement. The primary analysis was restricted to an age range between 6 and \<12 years.

Change in FEV1 (Percent of predicted) from baseline to week 12. FEV1 was measured only in children between 6 to \<12 years only. Least Squares Mean were adjusted for Baseline FEV1, age \[yrs\], pooled center, previous corticosteroid therapy and holding chamber.
