Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To compare the effect of SIA capsules versus placebo during a two-week treatment period (300 mg four times a day [q.i.d.]) in adult patients with acute bronchitis. ;Secondary Objective: To assess the safety and tolerability of two weeks treatment with SIA capsules compared to placebo.;Primary end point(s): 13.1 Primary efficacy endpoint: Mean in coughing fits(Day 7, Day 8, Day 9) / coughing fits(Day 1) The coughing fits counted by the patients on Day 7, Day 8 and Day 9 (starting with getting up in the morning and ending with bedtime) will be divided by the number of observed days (3 days). Due to the need to adjust for the influence of the baseline value (higher baseline values lead with a high probability to higher values on Day 7, Day 8 and Day 9), this mean value will be divided through the baseline value (Day 1) for each patient (standardized to the first day of patient’s precise recording with a manual counter).
