- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Summed, Time-weighted Pain Intensity Difference From 0 to 24 Hours Postdose (SPID0-24) From 0 to 24 hours post-dose SPID0-24 was calculated by multiplying the pain intensity difference score at each post-dose timepoint by the duration (in hours) since the preceding timepoint and then summing these values over 0 to 24 hours. Pain intensity was measured at baseline, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 hours using the 4-point categorical pain intensity scale: 0 = none, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe. SPID0-24 can vary from -24 to 72. The positive SPID value indicates improvement of pain relief. The higher the SPID value, the more improvement of pain relief.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Summed, Time-weighted Total Pain Relief Scores (TOTPARs) 0-6, 0-8, 0-12, 0-16, 0-24, and 16-24 hours postdose TOTPARs were derived by multiplying the pain relief score at each post-dose timepoint by the duration (in hours) since the preceding timepoint and then summing these values over the specified interval. Pain Relief was evaluated at 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 hours postdose, using the 5-point overall pain relief scale: 0 = No relief, 1 = A little relief, 2 = Some relief, 3 = A lot of relief, 4 = Complete relief. The possible total score ranges of TOTPARs are: TOTPAR0-6: 0 to 18, TOTPAR0-8: 0 to 24, TOTPAR0-12: 0 to 36, TOTPAR0-16: 0 to 48, TOTPAR0-24: 0 to 72, TOTPAR16-24: 0 to 24.
Pain Intensity Differences (PIDs) by Time From Initial Dose At 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2, 3, 4 ,5 ,6, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 hours postdose Pain intensity was evaluated using a 4-point Categorical Pain Intensity Rating Scale: 0 = none, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe
Cumulative Percentage of Participants Who Took Rescue Medication At 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2, 3, 4 ,5 ,6, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 hours postdose Number of Times the Participants Took Rescue Medication Over the 24-hour Period 24 hours postdose Summed, Time-weighted Pain Intensity Differences (SPID) 0-6, 0-8, 0-12, 0-16 and 16-24 hours postdose Pain intensity was measured at baseline, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 hours using the 4-point categorical pain intensity scale: 0 = none, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe. The total possible score ranges of SPIDs are SPID0-6: -6 to 18, SPID0-8: -8 to 24, SPID0-12: -12 to 36, SPID0-16: -16 to 48, SPID16-24: -8 to 24. The positive SPID value indicates improvement of pain relief. The higher the SPID value, the more improvement of pain relief.
Pain Relief From Initial Dose At 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2, 3, 4 ,5 ,6, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 hours postdose Pain Relief was evaluated using the 5-point overall pain relief scale: 0 = No relief, 1 = A little relief, 2 = Some relief, 3 = A lot of relief, 4 = Complete relief
Median Time to First Intake of Rescue Medication Up to 24 hours postdose Time to first use of rescue medication was estimated using Kaplan-Meier method and analyzed by a logrank test stratified by baseline pain intensity. If at least 50% of subjects in a treatment group took rescue medication, the median time to first rescue was determined for that treatment group.
Global Assessment of the Investigational Product as a Pain Reliever 24 hours postdose or immediately before the first intake of rescue medication Global assessment of investigational product as a pain reliever was rated on a 5-point categorical scale: 0 = poor, 1 = fair, 2 = good, 3 = very good, 4 = excellent
