Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study was to determine if rapamycin reduced angiomyolipomata volume in patients with tuberous sclerosis complex or lam.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The study design was an open label, phase I/II trial of sirolimus for one year followed by one year off therapy.Patients were seen at baseline,at two weeks to four weeks, and at 2,4,6,9,12,18 and 24 months. Angiomyolipomata imaging was performed at all but the two to four week visit. Complete pulmonary function tests and six-minute walk were obtained at baseline,6 or 9 month, 12 and 24 month visits, while simple spirometry only was performed at all other visits.
