Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study in Older Participants Who Have Fallen and Have Muscle Weakness (NCT NCT01604408)

NCT ID: NCT01604408

Last Updated: 2018-04-25

Results Overview

Change from baseline to 24-week endpoint in aLBM, as measured by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), is presented. Least squares (LS) means were calculated using a mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) with treatment, visit, and treatment-by-visit interaction as fixed effects and baseline aLBM as covariate.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to 24 weeks

Population: All participants who received at least 1 dose of LY2495655 or placebo with evaluable aLBM data.

Change from baseline to 24-week endpoint in aLBM, as measured by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), is presented. Least squares (LS) means were calculated using a mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) with treatment, visit, and treatment-by-visit interaction as fixed effects and baseline aLBM as covariate.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to 24 weeks

Population: All participants who received at least 1 dose of LY2495655 or placebo with evaluable StC time data.

Change from baseline to the 24-week endpoint in StC time is presented. StC time was assessed by measuring the fastest time achieved to climb 4 steps on a 4-step staircase (the test was performed 2 times). LS means were calculated using a MMRM with treatment, visit, and treatment-by-visit interaction as fixed effects and baseline StC score as covariate.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to 24 weeks

Population: All participants who received at least 1 dose of LY2495655 or placebo with evaluable RCS time data.

Change from baseline to 24-week endpoint in RCS time is presented. In the RCS test, participants were asked to rise from a chair 5 times as fast as possible with their arms folded on their chest. Performance was measured in seconds, as the time from the initial seated position to the final standing position. LS means were calculated using an MMRM with treatment, visit, and treatment-by-visit interaction as fixed effects and baseline RCS time as covariate.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to 24 weeks

Population: All participants who received at least 1 dose of LY2495655 or placebo with evaluable uGS data.

Change from baseline to the 24-week endpoint in uGS is presented. Two attempts to walk a 4-meter distance were made. LS means were calculated using a MMRM with treatment, visit, and treatment-by-visit interaction as fixed effects and baseline uGS as covariate.
