CAFS Score at Week 48
CAFS ranks patients' clinical outcomes based on survival time and change in the ALSFRS-R score. To calculate a patient's CAFS, each patient is compared individually to all other patients in the study. The summary score for each patient is the sum of the comparisons ( 1, 0, 1) against all other patients. After that, patients' summary scores are ranked. The CAFS rank is 1-383 and a higher CAFS rank indicates a better outcome than does a lower CAFS. Since CAFS were calculated using the imputed ALSFRS-R scores with multiple imputation method, and the maximum varies for each simulation, 383 is the maximum possible value of full range for measure of dispersion.
Time frame: up to 48 Weeks
Change From Baseline in % Slow Vital Capacity (SVC) at Week 48
SVC measurements will be conducted in clinic at around the same time of day where possible with the subject in sitting upright position. Subjects should make at least 3 attempts to generate acceptable and reproducible SVC data. The highest value was selected and recorded.
Time frame: up to 48 Weeks
Change From Baseline in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Assessment Questionnaire (ALSAQ)40 at Week 48
The ALSAQ-40 is a questionnaire that consists of 40 questions/items with 5 discrete scales: physical mobility, activities of daily living and independence, eating and drinking, communication, emotional reactions, ranging from 0 (best health as assessed by the scale) to 100 (worse health as assessed by the measure).
