Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Randomization will be stratified by whether the participant has poor lung function (forced expiratory volume \[FEV1\] \<50% predicted) and whether the participant has severe dyspnea (recorded modified Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale \[mMRC\] score, 3-4; scale, 0-4); critical factors that can make the study arms unbalanced regarding risk factors.

Primary Study Purpose
