Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Change From Baseline in Trough FEV1 (Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second) at 12 Weeks [ Time Frame: Baseline and 12 Weeks ]

  • Change From Baseline in Average Hourly FEV1 AUC0-6 (Area Under the Curve From Zero to Six Hours) at 12 Weeks [ Time Frame: Baseline and 12 Weeks ]
    Average hourly FEV1 AUC0-6 minus baseline FEV1


Secondary Outcome Measures:
