Analysis of potential treatment of LAM patients based on a method derived from rates of decline in pre-menopausal patients with FEV1 or DLCO > 70 % predicted *
Treated Based on Analytical Method |
|||
---|---|---|---|
Yes | No | Total | |
FEV1> 70 % | 12 (24.5) | 37 (75.5) | 49 (100.0) |
DLCO> 70 % | 11 (24.4) | 34 (75.6) | 45 (100.0) |
Columns show the numbers of patients to be treated with mTOR inhibitors when the observed FEV1 and DLCO were lower than the expected values derived from rates of decline in FEV1 and DLCO. Percentages of patients are shown within parenthesis.
