What is being measured

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

  1. 1) Percentage of Subjects Achieving a Clinically Relevant Response in Physician Global Assessment (PGA), With Score 0,1 or 2 From Baseline to 12 Weeks

    Percentage of subjects achieving a clinically significant response measured by the proportion of subjects who achieve 0, 1, or 2 PGA by the end of week 12

    Measured: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. 2) Subject's Global Impression of Change Reported on PGIC Scale (1-7 Point Scale Ranging From 1 "Very Much Improved" to 7 "Very Much Worse")

    Percentage of subjects achieving a clinically significant response measured by the proportion of subjects who are "minimally improved", "much improved" or "very much improved" on the Patient's Global Impression of Change (PGIC)

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Change From Baseline to 12 Weeks in Numerical Assessment Scale Numerical Rating Scale for Pain

    Assessment of change in pain via Numerical Rating Scale. Daily pain is reported by the subject using an 11-point 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain imaginable) numeric rating scale.

    Baseline score is the average of the values collected in the 7 days prior to first dose of study drug. Each Visit score is the average of the values collected in the 7 days prior to that visit.

    Measured: 12 weeks

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted24 Apr 2013 (estimated)
  2. Study startMay 2013
  3. Primary completionOct 2014
