A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Mirabegron Compared to Solifenacin in Patients With Overactive Bladder Who Were Previously Treated With Another Medicine But Were Not Satisfied With That Treatment.

A treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) was defined as an adverse event (AE; defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient administered a study drug) that started or worsened in the period from the first double-blind medication intake until 30 days after the last double-blind medication intake. The following TEAEs were selected for inclusion in the analysis: Dry mouth (aptyalism, dry mouth, dry throat), constipation (constipation), blurred vision (vision blurred, myopia, refraction disorder, accommodation disorder).

An incontinence episode is any involuntary leakage of urine. The total number of incontinence episodes per 24 hours were calculated from the data recorded by the participant during the 3-day micturition diary period prior to each visit.

An incontinence episode is any involuntary leakage of urine. The mean number of incontinence episodes per 24 hours were calculated from the data recorded by the participant during the 3-day micturition diary period.

An urgency incontinence episode is any involuntary leakage of urine accompanied by or immediately proceeded by urgency. The total number of urgency incontinence episodes per 24 hours were calculated from the data recorded by the participant during the 3-day micturition diary period prior to each visit.

An urgency incontinence episode is any involuntary leakage of urine accompanied by or immediately proceeded by urgency. The mean number of urgency incontinence episodes per 24 hours were calculated from the data recorded by the participant during the 3-day micturition diary period.

An urgency episode is a sudden compelling desire to pass urine immediately followed by an incontinent event or the patient having to rush to the toilet and make it in time; severity recorded as 3 (severe urgency) or 4 (urgency incontinence) on the Patient Perception of the Intensity of Urgency Scale (PPIUS) validated scale. The mean number of urgency episodes per 24 hours were calculated from the data recorded by the participant during the 3-day micturition diary period.

Urgency level was rated by the participant during the 3-day micturition diary period using the PPIUS 5-point categorical scale: 0. No urgency; 1. Mild urgency; 2. Moderate urgency; 3. Severe urgency; 4. Urgency incontinence.

The total number of pads per 24 hours were calculated from the data recorded by the participant during the 3-day micturition diary period prior to each visit.

The mean number of pads per 24 hours were calculated from the data recorded by the participant during the 3-day micturition diary period.

A nocturia episode is defined as waking at night ≥1 times to void (i.e., any voiding associated with sleep disturbance between the time the patient goes to bed with the intention to sleep until the time the patient gets up in the morning with the intention to stay awake). The total number of nocturia episodes were calculated from the data recorded by the participant during the 3-day micturition diary period prior to each visit.

A responder is defined as a participant who has ≥8 micturitions at baseline and has <8 micturitions per 24 hours during the treatment period at each specified visit, where change from baseline is <0.

A responder is defined as a participant with at least 50% decrease from baseline in mean number of incontinence episodes per 24 hours during the treatment period at specified visit.

A responder is defined as a participant who reported incontinence episodes at baseline and reported no incontinence episodes during the treatment period at specified visit.

The European Quality of Life 5-Dimensions Questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L) is a standardized nondisease specific (i.e., generic) instrument for use as a measure of health outcome. It has 5 domains: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain and discomfort, and anxiety and depression. Each dimension has 5 response levels (e.g., no problems with performing activity, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems, unable to perform [extreme problems]).

The Overactive Bladder Questionnaire (OAB-q) is a self-reported questionnaire with items relating to symptom bother and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). The symptom bother portion consists of 8 items, scored from 1 to 6. The total symptom bother score was calculated from the 8 answers and then transformed to range from 0 (least severity) to 100 (worst severity). A negative change from baseline indicates an improvement.

The OAB-q is a self-reported questionnaire with items relating to Symptom Bother and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). The HRQoL portion consists of an 25-item HRQoL subscale containing the following domains scored from 1 to 6: coping, concern, sleep, social interaction). The total score is calculated by adding the 4 HRQoL subscale scores and transforming to a scale from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better quality of life. A positive change from baseline indicates an improvement.

The Patient Perception of Bladder Condition (PPBC) questionnaire is a single-item questionnare used to assess participants' perceptions and impressions of their bladder condition. Participants assessed their bladder condition using a 6-point categorical scale: 1. Does not cause me any problems at all; 2. Causes me some very minor problems; 3. Causes me some minor problems; 4. Causes me (some) moderate problems; 5. Causes me severe problems; 6. Causes me many severe problems.

The Treatment Satisfaction (TS)-Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was a self-rated scale with the participant answering the question "Are you satisfied with your treatment?" and placing a vertical mark on a line from 0 (No, not at all) to 10 (Yes, completely).

The Treatment Satisfaction (TS)-Likert Scale was a self-rated scale with the participant answering the question "How satisfied were you with your treatment?" with on a scale from 1 (extremely dissatisfied) to 7 (extremely satisfied).

A responder is defined as a participant with ≥10 points improvement in symptom bother from baseline.

A responder is defined as a participant with >=10 points improvement in the total HRQL score from baseline.

A responder is defined as a participant with ≥1, ≥2, ≥3, ≥4, ≥5 or 6-point improvement from baseline in TS-Likert scale.

A responder is defined as a participant with >=1 or >=2 or >=3 or >=4 or >=5 or 6-point improvement from baseline in TS-Likert scale.

A responder is defined as a participant with ≥1 point improvement in PPBC from baseline.

A responder is defined as a participant with ≥2 point improvement in PPBC from baseline.
