Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Pulmonary deterioration | 2 years | decrease in Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), vital capacity (VC), or Diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) of at least 15% as compared to baseline values and/or progression of clinical symptoms (general symptoms) and/or occurrence of pneumothorax |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Evolution of pulmonary volumes (FEV1) | 6 months |
| Evolution of pulmonary lesions in High Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) | 6 months |
