The mean number of incontinence episodes per 24 hours was calculated from data recorded by the participant in a micturition diary for 7 days prior to the baseline and week 52 clinic visits.
Change From Baseline to EoT in Mean Number of Micturitions Per 24 Hours	Baseline and Week 52	A micturition was defined as any voluntary urination (excluding incontinence only episodes). The mean number of micturitions per 24 hours was calculated from data recorded by the participant in a micturition diary for 7-days before the baseline and week 52 clinic visits.
Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)	From first dose of double-blind study drug up to 30 days after last dose of double-blind study drug (up to 56 weeks)	A TEAE was defined as an adverse event (AE) observed after taking the first dose of double-blind treatment until 14 days after taking the last dose of double-blind treatment for non-serious AEs and until 30 days after taking the last dose of double-blind treatment for serious adverse events (SAEs). This included abnormal laboratory tests, vital signs or electrocardiogram data that were defined as AEs if the abnormality induced clinical signs or symptoms, required active intervention, interruption or discontinuation of study drug or was clinically significant in the investigator's opinion. The severity of each AE was defined according to the following: Mild (No disruption of normal daily activities); Moderate (Affected normal daily activities) and Severe (Inability to perform daily activities).

Percentage of Participants With Major (≥ 2 Points) Improvement From Baseline in PPBC at Months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 and EoT	Baseline and Months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12	The PPBC is a validated, global assessment tool using a 6-point Likert scale on which participants rated their subjective impression of their current bladder condition. Participants assessed their bladder condition using this scale: 1. Does not cause me any problems at all; 2. Causes me some very minor problems; 3. Causes me some minor problems; 4. Causes me (some) moderate problems; 5. Causes me severe problems; 6. Causes me many severe problems.
Percentage of Participants Who Were Double Responders (≥ 50% Reduction in Mean Number of Incontinence Episodes Per 24 Hours and at Least 10 Points Improvement on OAB-q Symptom Bother Scale) at Months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 and EoT	Baseline and Months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12	An incontinence episode was defined as the complaint of any involuntary leakage of urine. The mean number of incontinence episodes per 24 hours was calculated from data recorded by the participant in a micturition diary for 7 days prior to each visit. The OAB-q is a self-reported questionnaire with items relating to symptom bother and HRQoL. The symptom bother portion consists of 8 items, rated on a 6-point Likert scale (1 through 6). The total symptom bother score was calculated from the 8 answers and then transformed to range from 0 (least severity) to 100 (worst severity). A negative change from baseline indicated an improvement.
Percentage of Participants Who Were Double Responders (≥ 50% Reduction in Mean Number of Incontinence Episodes Per 24 Hours and at Least 10 Points Improvement on OAB-q HRQL Total Score) at Months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 and EoT	Baseline and Months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12	An incontinence episode was defined as the complaint of any involuntary leakage of urine. The mean number of incontinence episodes per 24 hours was calculated from data recorded by the participant in a micturition diary for 7 days prior to each visit. The OAB-q is a self-reported questionnaire with items relating to symptom bother and HRQoL. The HRQoL portion consists of 25 HRQoL items comprising 4 HRQoL subscales (Coping, Concern, Sleep, and Social Interaction), each item was scored 1-6. The total score was calculated by adding the 4 HRQoL subscale scores and transforming to a scale from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better quality of life. A positive change from baseline indicated an improvement.
Percentage of Participants Who Were Triple Responders (≥ 50% Reduction in Mean Number of Incontinence Episodes Per 24 Hours, ≥ 10 Points Improvement on OAB-q Symptom Bother Scale and ≥1 Point Improvement on PPBC) at Months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 and EoT	Baseline and Months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12	The mean number of incontinence episodes per 24 hours was calculated from data recorded by the participant in a micturition diary for 7 days prior to each visit. The symptom bother portion of the OAB-q consists of 8 items, rated on a 6-point Likert scale (1 through 6). The total symptom bother score was calculated from the 8 answers and then transformed to range from 0 (least severity) to 100 (worst severity).

Percentage of Participants With Zero Incontinence Episodes Per 24 Hours Using the Last 7 Diary Days at Months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 and EoT	Months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12	An incontinence episode was defined as the complaint of any involuntary leakage of urine. The percentage of participants with no incontinence episodes recorded during the 7-day micturition diary is reported.
Percentage of Participants With Micturition Frequency Normalization at Months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 and EoT	Baseline and Months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12	The percentage of participants with micturition frequency normalization was defined as participants who had ≥ 8 micturitions/24 hours at baseline and \< 8 micturitions/24 hours postbaseline at months 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 and EoT.
