PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to end of 13-week treatment period

Population: Complete Cohort: consisted of all randomized subjects who completed the full term of study participation (13 weeks) and who had no recorded protocol violations that would have excluded the from analysis.

Defined as the sum of pain scores divided by the total number of days in which the subject experienced abdominal/pelvic pain, from baseline to Week 13 The severity of the pain was assessed using a 4-points scale (0 = "None", 1 = "Mild", 2 = "Moderate", 3 = "Severe")

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to end of Week 13

Population: Complete Cohort: consisted of all randomized subjects who completed the full term of study participation (13 weeks) and who had no recorded protocol violations that would have excluded the from analysis.

Maximum pain severity score was calculated by identifying each subject's maximum recorded pain severity from baseline to end of Week 13. The severity of the pain was assessed using a 4-points scale (0 = "None", 1 = "Mild", 2 = "Moderate", 3 = "Severe")
