Trial Outcomes & Findings for Efficacy and Safety Trial of Elobixibat in Patients With Chronic Idiopathic Constipation (NCT NCT01833065)

NCT ID: NCT01833065

Last Updated: 2015-10-20

Results Overview

This outcome measured the percentage of patients who were CSBM responders. A CSBM responder was defined as a patient with ≥3 CSBMs per week and an increase of ≥1 CSBM per week from Baseline, for at least 9 of the 12 weeks in the 12-week Treatment Period, including at least 3 weeks during Weeks 9-12.

Participant Flow

Trial included 4-week Screening and 2-week Pretreatment Period before patient randomization to treatment sequences i.e. EBX 10/EBX 10, EBX 10/PLCBO, EBX 5/EBX 5, EBX 5/PLCBO and PLCBO/EBX 10. The total study duration was of 16 weeks: the efficacy assessments focused on the first 12 weeks, while safety assessments focused on whole 16 weeks

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: During the first 12 weeks

Population: The ITT analysis set consisting of all randomized (as planned) patients.

This outcome measured the percentage of patients who were CSBM responders. A CSBM responder was defined as a patient with ≥3 CSBMs per week and an increase of ≥1 CSBM per week from Baseline, for at least 9 of the 12 weeks in the 12-week Treatment Period, including at least 3 weeks during Weeks 9-12.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Within first 24 hours of treatment initiation

Population: The ITT analysis set consisting of all randomized (as planned) patients.

This outcome measured the percentage of patients who had a CSBM within 24 hours after the first dose of treatment. A CSBM was defined as a spontaneous (occurring without laxative within the preceding 24 hours, including no rescue medication within the preceding 24 hours) bowel movement (as interpreted by the patient, with a beginning and an end, including single or multiple stools), accompanied by a patient reported sense of complete evacuation ('complete').

Timeframe: From Baseline (2-week Pretreatment Period) to overall first 12-weeks of Treatment Period

Population: The ITT analysis set consisting of all randomized (as planned) patients.

The stool consistency is measured using the seven-point ordinal Bristol Stool Form Scale (BSFS) score. The BSFS classifies human stool into seven types and points them accordingly. Type 1: Separate hard lumps, like nuts (hard to pass) Type 2: Sausage-shaped, but lumpy Type 3: Like a sausage but with cracks on its surface Type 4: Like a sausage or snake, smooth and soft Type 5: Soft blobs with clear cut edges (passed easily) Type 6: Fluffy pieces with ragged edges, a mushy stool Type 7: Watery, no solid pieces, entirely liquid Types 1 and 2 indicate constipation, with 3 and 4 represents the ideal stool form (especially the latter), and 5, 6 and 7 tends towards diarrhoea . For a given assessment week, the weekly stool consistency was defined as the sum of non-missing stool consistency score for SBMs during that week divided by the number of non-missing stool consistency score for SBMs during that week. The parameter was analysed using repeated measures ANCOVA model.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: At Week 12

Population: The ITT analysis set consisting of all randomized (as planned) patients.

This outcome measured the percentage of patients who were PAC-QOL score responder at 12-week Treatment Period. A PAC-QOL score responder was defined as a patient with ≥50% reduction in total PAC-QOL score from Baseline at Week 12. PAC-QOL is a 28-item questionnaire for psychometric assessment of disease-specific quality of life. The questionnaire is based on 5-point Likert scale; ranging from 0 \[none of the time or not at all\] to 4 \[all of the time or extremely\]). A lower score indicates a better Quality of Life. The PAC-QOL questionnaire is developed specifically for patients with constipation. Total PAC-QOL score was averaged from the individual item score.

The degree of straining was measured using the five-point ordinal scale (1=Not at all, 2=A little bit, 3=A moderate amount, 4=A great deal, and 5=An extreme amount). For a given assessment week, the weekly degree of straining was defined as the sum of non-missing straining score for SBMs during that week divided by the number of non-missing straining score for SBMs during that week.
