Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Total resolution of the disease in 100% of patients treated with WLL/inhaled GM-CSF.;Secondary Objective: 1)to avoid recurrence of the disease requiring multiple WWL, 2) to avoid or reduce the number of respiratory infections due to persistant pulmonary abnormalities PAP associated 3) evaluation of outcome determinants in the diverse treated groups, 4) ancillary study to establish whether the addition of inhaled GM-CSF may influence PAP pathophysiology.;Primary end point(s): Primary efficacy endpoint (total resolution of disease in 100% of patients trated with WLL/inhaled GM-CSF) will be documented as follows: a. functional endpoints: measuere of alveolar-arterial oxygen tension gradient (PA-a O2), measure of oxygen saturation during exercise, according to the modified Bruce`s protocol. b. Imaging endpoint: score of the pulmonary CT performed after 3 and 10 months after WLL. c. Severity score: score based on symptoms and PaO2 level at entry. The score will be associated to a quality of life questionnaire (SF36). | — |
