主要结局

Change From Baseline to Week 10 in Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAMA) Total Score

时间窗: Baseline, Week 10

The Structured Interview Guide for the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (SIGH-A) was used to collect HAMA data. The HAMA consisted of 14 items that assessed the severity of anxiety. Each item was scored using a 5-point scale (0=not present to 4=very severe). The HAMA Total Score could have ranged from 0 to 56 and higher scores indicated a greater degree of symptom severity. Least squares (LS) mean were calculated and analyzed using mixed-model repeated measures (MMRM) adjusted for treatment, pooled investigator, age category, visit, treatment-by-visit, baseline score, and baseline-by-visit.
