Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Each patient randomly assigned to a treatment and with at least one non-missing<br /><br>pre- and post-baseline measurement, will be classified at each visit, as either<br /><br>a treatment success or failure. Patients with a painscore reduction of >25%<br /><br>compared to baseline, did not require pain medication beyond the protocol<br /><br>defined allowable amount, and did not require escape therapy will be considered<br /><br>a treatment success.<br /><br><br /><br>The absolute change from baseline to endpoint means the baseline value is<br /><br>subtracted from the endpoint value. Percent change is defined as the absolute<br /><br>change multiplied by 100 divided by the baseline value. For patients whose pain<br /><br>improves, these values will be less than zero. </p><br>
