Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change from Baseline in mean number of micturitions per 24 hours at Week 12Micturtions will be assessed prior to randomization and at Week 12 (Visit 6).

Micturition events will be recorded by subjects in an eDiary using a smartphone device during 3-day diary periods prior to randomization and at 12 weeks.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Micturitions (2)Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12

Percentage change from Baseline in mean number of micturitions per 24 hours

Micturitions (4)Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12

Change from Baseline in mean number of nocturnal voids per 24 hours

Urine Void Volume (1)Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12

Change from Baseline in average void volume over 24 hours

Urine Void Volume (2)Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12

Percentage change from Baseline in average void volume over 24 hours

Micturitions (3)Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12

Percentage of subjects with \< 8 micturitions per 24 hours

Urine Void Volume (3)Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12

Change from Baseline in maximum individual void volume over 24 hours

Urine Void Volume (4)Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12

Percentage change from Baseline in maximum individual void volume over 24 hours

Urgency (1)Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12

Proportion of subjects with urges with a mean grade of 3 of 4 per 24 hours

Urgency (2)Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12

Change from Baseline in mean urgency assessments per 24 hours associated with micturitions or incontinence

Patient Reported Outcomes (1)Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12

Patient Perception of Bladder Control. This patient-reported questionnaire assesses the patient's perception of current urinary problems, where higher score (on a scale of 1 to 6) indicates more severe problems.

Patient Reported Outcomes (2)Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12

Change from Baseline in Symptom Bother Score (Overactive Bladder Questionnaire \[OAB-q\] short form). The OAB-q short form is completed as a 4-week recall where a higher score (on a scale of 1 to 6) indicates greater symptoms.

Patient Reported Outcomes (3)Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12

Change from Baseline in health-related quality of life (Overactive Bladder Questionnaire \[OAB-q\] short form). The OAB-q short form is completed as a 4-week recall where a higher score (on a scale of 1 to 6) indicates worse health-related quality of life.

Urinary Incontinence (3)Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12

Proportion of subjects with no episodes of urgency urinary incontinence per 24 hours

Urinary Incontinence (4)Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12

Proportion of subjects with no episodes of urinary incontinence (urgency and non-urgency) per 24 hours

Urinary Incontinence (5)Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12

Change from Baseline in total urinary incontinence episodes (urgency and non-urgency) per 24 hours

Micturitions (1)Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4 and 8

Change from Baseline in mean number of micturitions per 24 hours

Urinary Incontinence (1)Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12

Change from Baseline in mean number of urgency urinary incontinence episodes per 24 hours

Urinary Incontinence (2)Prior to Randomization (Baseline) and at Weeks 4, 8, and 12

Percentage change from Baseline in mean number of urgency urinary incontinence episodes per 24 hours
