Trial Outcomes

Duration Adjusted Average Change (DAAC) of Mean Pain Score

DAAC was derived from participant's daily pain diary, where pain was measured on an 11-point Numerical Rating Scale (NRS-Pain)ranging from 0 (did not interfere with sleep) to 10 (completely interfered [unable to sleep due to pain]). The DAAC was calculated as the mean of all daily pain diary rating post baseline minus the baseline score then multiplied by the proportion of the planned study duration completed by the participant. (NCT00407745)
Timeframe: Baseline, Week 16

Number of Participants Having Optimal Sleep Based on Medical Outcomes Study Sleep Scale (MOS-SS)

Participant rated questionnaire to assess sleep quality and quantity. Consists of a 9-item overall sleep problems index (length of time to fall asleep, how many hours of sleep each night during past 4 weeks); 7 subscales rated 1 (all the time) to 6 (none of the time): sleep disturbance, snoring, awaken short of breath (SOB) or with a headache, somnolence adequacy, and sleep quantity. Scores are transformed (actual raw score minus lowest possible score divided by possible raw score range multiplied by 100); total score range = 0 to 100; higher score indicates greater intensity of attribute.

Number of Participants With >=30% Reduction in Weekly Mean Pain Score From Baseline

Mean weekly score was calculated as the average of the available daily diary pain score values for the week. Pain score was measured on an 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS): 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). (NCT00407745)

Number of Participants With Improved Duration of Brief Pain Attacks Based on NPSI - Duration (Item 4)

NPSI - Temporal item which assesses the duration (number of hours during the last 24 hours) of spontaneous ongoing pain. Improved duration would be a decrease in the number of hours of spontaneous ongoing pain during the last 24 hours compared to baseline. (NCT00407745)

Number of Participants With Improvement in the Number of Attacks Based on NPSI - Number of Attacks (Item 7)

Change From Baseline in Hospital and Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS) - Anxiety

HADS: participant rated questionnaire with 2 subscales. HADS-A assesses state of generalized anxiety (anxious mood, restlessness, anxious thoughts, panic attacks); HADS-D assesses state of lost interest and diminished pleasure response (lowering of hedonic tone). Each subscale comprised of 7 items with range 0 (no presence of anxiety or depression) to 3 (severe feeling of anxiety or depression). Total score 0 to 21 for each subscale; higher score indicates greater severity of anxiety and depression symptoms. (NCT00407745)

Change From Baseline in Neuropathic Pain Symptom Inventory (NPSI) - Paresthesia/Dysesthesia

Participant rated questionnaire used to evaluate different symptoms of neuropathic pain (dimensions: burning [superficial] spontaneous pain, pressing [deep] spontaneous pain, paroxysmal pain, evoked pain, and paresthesia/dyesthesia [P/D]). Includes 10 descriptors quantified on a 0 (no symptoms) to 10 (worst symptoms imaginable) and 2 temporal items assessing duration of spontaneous ongoing and paroxysmal pain. Questionnaire generates a score in each of the relevant dimensions and a total score of 0-100. Higher score indicates a greater intensity of pain. (NCT00407745)
