Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To confirm efficacy of IMUNOR® in treatment of recurrent respiratory tract infections in pediatric population.;Secondary Objective: To evaluate safety of the IMUNOR® treatment in pediatric subjects. ;Primary end point(s): The number of documented respiratory tract infections during 3 months of treatment. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: All episodes starting during the Treatment Phase and being resolved during the Follow-up Phase will be included into the analysis. Respiratory tract infections, including acute otitis media episodes, starting prior commencement of study medication intake will be documented, but not used for evaluation. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): - The number of subjects without reported respiratory tract infections - Duration of RTI episodes - Use of antibiotics - Laboratory assessments - Immunology (IgG, IgM, IgA, CD3, CD4, CD8); Hematology (hemoglobin, hematocrit, total and differential leukocyte count, red blood cell count, platelet count); Serum chemistry (glucose, total proteins, serum albumin, urea, serum creatinine, AST, ALT, total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, sodium, potassium, CRP); Urine analysis (pH, specific gravity, proteins, glucose, ketone bodies, bilirubin, blood, nitrite, urobilinogen and a microscopic examination) - Adverse events ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Since the signed ICF till the end of Follow-up phase | — |
