Trial Outcomes & Findings for An Efficacy and Safety Study for Tapentadol Extended Release (JNS024ER) in Chronic Pain Participants (NCT NCT01124604)

NCT ID: NCT01124604

Last Updated: 2013-05-14

Results Overview

Participants were asked to assess the average pain intensity on a 11-point NRS ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (maximum pain imaginable) by selecting a number applicable to their pain on the scale. The mean pain intensity during the past 74 hours (3 days) was evaluated at Baseline and the mean pain intensity during the past 12 hours was evaluated at subsequent study visits.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, Week 12

Population: Full Analysis Set (FAS) included all the randomly assigned participants who received at least 1 dose of study drug and had post-randomization efficacy data. Last observation carried forward (LOCF) method was used to impute missing values.

Participants were asked to assess the average pain intensity on a 11-point NRS ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (maximum pain imaginable) by selecting a number applicable to their pain on the scale. The mean pain intensity during the past 74 hours (3 days) was evaluated at Baseline and the mean pain intensity during the past 12 hours was evaluated at subsequent study visits.

The PGIC is a 7-point scale that requires the participants to assess how much their illness has improved or worsened relative to a Baseline state at the beginning of the intervention. The response options are 1 = very much improved, 2 = much improved, 3 = minimally improve, 4 = no change, 5 = minimally worse, 6 = much worse, and 7 = very much worse.

BPI-sf is a self-evaluated pain assessment form consisting of 15 items (item 1 - presence of pain, item 2 - pain location, items 3 to 6 - pain severity, item 7 - status of pain treatment, item 8 - efficacy of pain treatment, and items 9a to 9g - interference of pain with daily life). Item 1 for presence of pain assesses the question: "Do you have any pain today other than everyday kinds of pain?" on a 2-point scale of "yes" or "no".

SF-36v2 is 36-item form related to 8 health concepts (physical functioning, role physical, role emotional, general health, social functioning, bodily pain, vitality, mental health) and 2 summary scores (physical and mental component summary). Physical functioning, role physical and bodily pain contribute to physical component; role emotional, social functioning and mental health contribute to mental component; and social functioning, vitality, and general health contribute to both. All scores are based on a scale from 0 to 100, with higher scores defining more favorable health state.

Timeframe: Baseline, Week 12

Population: FAS included all the randomly assigned participants who received at least 1 dose of study drug and had post-randomization efficacy data. 'N' (number of participants analyzed) signifies those participants who were evaluable for this measure and 'n' signifies those participants who were evaluable for this measure at given time points.

WOMAC is a self administered 24-item questionnaire used to evaluate participants with osteoarthritis of the knee. It consists of 3 subscales: pain (5 items), joint stiffness (2 items), and physical function (17 items). Each item is assessed on a 5-point scale from 0 to 4. The global score assesses pain, disability and joint stiffness and ranges from 0 to 96. Higher scores indicate that a symptom is bothersome and physically disabling.
