结局指标
主要结局
Changes from baseline in visual analogue scale(VAS)
时间窗: At baseline, week 4, 8, 12
The visual analog scale for pain is a straight line with one end meaning no pain and the other end meaning the worst pain imaginable. A patient marks a point on the line that matches the amount of pain he or she feels.
次要结局
- Changes from baseline in body temperature(At baseline, week 4, 8, 12)
- Changes from baseline in blood pressure(up to 12 weeks)
- Changes from baseline in Pulse rate(up to 12 weeks)
- Changes from baseline in WHO Quality of Life-BREF(At baseline, week 4, 8, 12)
- Levels of AST(At screening visit, week 8)
- Levels of ALT(Kidney function test for monitoring patient safety(mmol/L))
- Levels of r-GTP(Kidney function test for monitoring patient safety(mmol/L))
- Levels of BUN(Kidney function test for monitoring patient safety(mmol/L))
- Levels of Cr(Kidney function test for monitoring patient safety(mmol/L))
- Adverse event(At week 4, 8, 12)
