Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: - To compare and contrast the effect on Forced Expiratory Volume in one second(FEV1) using a 12 week treatment regimen of: 1) mannitol to rhDNase, and 2) mannitol + rhDNase to rhDNase ; Secondary Objective: - To compare mannitol to rhDNase on Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) - To demonstrate that the effects of mannitol are additive to rhDNase - To demonstrate that mannitol does not cause deterioration in bronchial hyper-reactvity (BHR) or airway inflammation - To demonstrate that mannitol does not increase the bacterial load in the lung - To demonstrate that the effects of mannitol are beneficial to quality of life - To demonstrate that mannitol is a cost effective alternative to rhDNase ;Primary end point(s): Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1)
