    Measured: Week 52

  2. Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second (FEV1)

    FEV1 is observed at Week 0 and Week 52. The change of FEV1 from Week 0 to Week 52 is calculated.

    Measured: Week 0 and Week 52

  3. Cough Frequency

    Cough frequency is rating 1 to 4 score based on patient's diary: 1=None; 2=A few times; 3=Frequently; 4=Very frequently.

    Measured: Week 0 and Week 52

  4. Amount of Sputum

    Amount of Sputum is rating 1 to 4 score based on patient's diary: 1= None; 2= Slight; 3=Slightly more; 4= Very much.

    Measured: Week 0 and Week 52

  5. Shortness of Breath

    Shortness of Breath is rating 1 to 6 score based on patient's diary: 1=No shortness of breath and no problem in activity in daily life (ADL); 2=Despite shortness of breath, can move about like other people of the same age and no problem in ADL; 3=Can walk fast for a short time but activities like other people of the same age are not possible; 4=Can walk normally, go up the stairs slowly but quick motion is difficult; 5=Can walk slowly in the neighborhood but shortness of breath occurs; 6= Due to severe shortness of breath, rested at home all day.
