What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. PAP: Percentage of Participants Who Remained Stable for 52 Weeks During the PAP

    Participants were considered as stable if they met all of the following criteria: 1) no more than 2 bone crisis during PAP (with no more than 1 bone crisis during either the first 6 months or the later 6 months of the period), and were free of other clinically symptomatic bone disease during the entire 52-week PAP; 2) hemoglobin level not decreased >1.5 g/dL from Baseline for PAP; 3) platelet count not decreased >25% from Baseline for PAP; 4) spleen volume (in multiples of normal [MN]) did not increase >25% from Baseline for PAP; 5) liver volume (in MN) did not increase >20% from Baseline for PAP. Baseline for PAP was defined as the last assessment prior to randomization.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 52

  9. PAP: Total T-Scores for BMD at Baseline and Week 52

    Images of the spine and bilateral femur were obtained by DXA to determine T-score for each bone area and total bone mineral density. The T-score bone density categories were: normal (score >-1), osteopenia (score -2.5 to <=-1), and osteoporosis (score <= -2.5).

    Measured: Baseline, Week 52

    Bone pain was assessed as a part of Gaucher disease assessment in participants. Participants were categorized as none (no bone pain), very mild bone pain, mild bone pain, moderate bone pain, severe bone pain and extreme bone pain during the past 4 weeks.

    BMB Score was measured using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), range from 0 (no abnormalities) to 8 points (severe disease) for the lumbar spine and from 0 (no abnormalities) to 8 points (severe disease) for the femurs. The total score was calculated as the sum of scores for femur and lumbar spine regions which ranged from 0 (no abnormalities) -16 (severe disease) points. A higher BMB score signified more severe bone marrow involvement.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

What does the primary outcome measure?

PAP: Percentage of Participants Who Remained Stable for 52 Weeks During the PAP (time frame: PAP Baseline up to the end of PAP (Week 52)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
