Trial Outcomes & Findings for Study of Orofacial Pain and PropRANOlol (NCT NCT02437383)

NCT ID: NCT02437383

Last Updated: 2019-05-21

Results Overview

Weekly mean pain index computed as the arithmetic mean of daily pain index values during the week prior to randomization and prior to each study visit. Daily pain index is computed as pain intensity (0-100 numeric rating scale where 0 = "no pain" and 100 = "the most intense pain imaginable") multiplied by pain duration (0-100 percentage scale where percent = "percent of waking day you had facial pain") as reported in the Daily Symptom Diary and divided by 100. The pain index range is from 0 to 100. A higher score means a worse outcome.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Visit 1 (study day 0) and Visit 4 (study day 63 +/-7)

Population: All participants who received at least one dose of study medication and provided at least one post-baseline outcome measure.

Weekly mean pain index computed as the arithmetic mean of daily pain index values during the week prior to randomization and prior to each study visit. Daily pain index is computed as pain intensity (0-100 numeric rating scale where 0 = "no pain" and 100 = "the most intense pain imaginable") multiplied by pain duration (0-100 percentage scale where percent = "percent of waking day you had facial pain") as reported in the Daily Symptom Diary and divided by 100. The pain index range is from 0 to 100. A higher score means a worse outcome.

Individuals were classified into 6 chronic pain grades: 0 = no pain; I = low pain intensity and low pain-related disability; IIa = high pain intensity and low pain-related disability; IIb = high pain intensity and high activity interference; III = moderate pain-related disability; and IV = severe pain-related disability. For analyses, this variable was dichotomized: grades 0-IIa were combined in one category and all higher grades in another. A higher grade means a worse outcome.

The PGIC scale assesses patient overall change in the severity of illness following treatment. Participants rate how they feel now compared with how they felt before receiving study drug on a 7-point scale where 0 = "No change or condition has got worse" and 6 = "A great deal better." A higher score means a better outcome. For analyses, this variable was dichotomized: scores from 0 to 3 were combined in one category of "No" (no significant improvement) and scores from 4 to 6 were combined in another category of "Yes" (significant improvement with the study treatment).

Population: All participants who received at least one dose of study medication, provided at least one post-baseline outcome measure, and had genotyping data for COMT haplotypes.

Weekly mean pain index computed as the arithmetic mean of daily pain index values during the week prior to randomization and prior to each study visit. Daily pain index is computed as pain intensity (0-100 numeric rating scale where 0 = "no pain" and 100 = "the most intense pain imaginable") multiplied by pain duration (0-100 percentage scale where percent = "percent of waking day you had facial pain") as reported in the Daily Symptom Diary, divided by 100. The pain index range is from 0 to 100. A higher score means a worse outcome. The pain index was stratified per number of catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) Low Pain Sensitive (LPS) haplotypes.
