På grund af uensartethed i manifestationer af sygdommen blandt patienterne var den globale respons med anvendelse af et kombineret endpoint, som opsummerede klinisk signifikante ændringer på tværs af fem effektvariabler (procent forventet normal FVC, 6MWT- distance, bevægelsesinterval for skulderfleksion, AHI og synskarphed), en forbedring hos 26 patienter (58%), ingen ændring hos 10 patienter (22%) og en forværring hos 9 patienter (20%).
7 To address the heterogeneity in disease manifestation across patients, using a composite endpoint that summed up clinically significant changes across five efficacy variables (percent predicted normal FVC, 6MWT distance, shoulder flexion range of motion, AHI, and visual acuity) the global response was an improvement in 26 patients (58%), no change in 10 patients (22%), and a deterioration in 9 patients (20%).
