Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The main objective is to se if lowers dose of prednisolone combined with vitamin D can give the same results in clearing the disease, but give the patients fewer side effects. We compare high dose prednisolone to low dose prednisolone cmbined with vitamin D, and we predict that the regimens are non-inferior and give the same results on the disease, but fewer side effects when prednisolone are reduced.;Secondary Objective: Better understanding of the patogenesis of the disease by analysing blood and urine test.;Primary end point(s): The frequency of remission after 16 weeks treatment and the time to remission;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 16 weeks after randomizing to treatment | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): The frequency of relaps 1 year after remission on treatment Time to relaps Amount of and differences in side effects Admission to hospital (cause, frequency, duration);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: one year after remission | — |
