Change From Period Baseline in FEV1 (L) AUC(0-24h)
Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) is the amount of air which can be forcibly exhaled from the lungs in the first second of a forced exhalation. FEV1 will be measured pre-dose and over a 24 hours post-dose period.
Time frame: Day 1 (24 hours)
Change From Period Baseline in FEV1 (L) AUC(0-12h) and FEV1 (L) AUC(12- 24h)
Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) is the amount of air which can be forcibly exhaled from the lungs in the first second of a forced exhalation. FEV1 will be measured pre-dose and over a 12 hours post-dose period.
Time frame: Day 1 (12 hours)
Change From Period Baseline in Peak FEV1 (L)
Spirometry will be conducted according to internationally accepted standards. Peak Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) is the maximum FEV1 recorded between different time points.
Time frame: Day 1 (24 hours)
Change From Period Baseline in Trough FEV1 (L)
Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) is the amount of air which can be forcibly exhaled from the lungs in the first second of a forced exhalation, measured through spirometry testing. The trough in FEV1 is defined as the mean of two measurements at different time points.
Time frame: Day 1 (24 hours)
Change From Period Baseline in FVC (L) AUC (0-24h)
Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) is the amount of air which can be forcibly exhaled from the lungs after taking the deepest breath possible. FVC will be assessed via spirometry. A positive change from baseline in FVC indicates improvement in lung function.
