Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Cumulated incidence of response to treatment [ Time Frame: 6 months ]

    response to treatment after 6 months is defined as

    • ≥10% improvement of forced vital capacity (FVC)
    • and/or ≥10% improvement of postbronchodilator forced expiratory volume (FEV1) and ≥200ml


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Responses to treatment [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
  2. Absolute variations of FEV1, FVC, residual volume (RV), and Diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO), (expressed in mL) [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
  3. Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia or thrombopenia [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
  4. Incidence of infection [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
  5. Incidence of grade 3 or 4 side effects [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
  6. Response to treatment of extra pulmonary localizations of the Langerhans disease [ Time Frame: 6, 9, and 12 months ]
  7. Incidence of pneumothorax [ Time Frame: 12 months ]
  8. Mortality [ Time Frame: 12 months, 4 years ]
  9. Incidence of secondary malignant disease [ Time Frame: 4 years ]
  10. Treatment response [ Time Frame: at 6 months ]
  11. Treatment response [ Time Frame: 9 months ]
  12. Treatment response [ Time Frame: 12 months ]
  13. Variation of nodular and cystic semiquantitative scores in High Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
