结局指标
主要结局
Change From Baseline in Reflux Disease Questionnaire (RDQ) Scores for the GERD Dimension
时间窗: 7 days
The primary study endpoint is the change from baseline in RDQ symptom scores for the GERD dimension (heartburn and regurgitation) after a 7-day treatment period of Compound Sodium Alginate Double Action Chewable Tablets compared with a matched placebo. The RDQ is a 12-item self-administered questionnaire designed to assess the frequency and severity of heartburn, acid regurgitation and dyspepsia symptoms, with a minimum score of 0 and a maximum score of 60, with lower RDQ scores showing an improved outcome. The heartburn and acid regurgitation subscales can be combined into a GERD dimension, which has a minimum score of 0 and a maximum score of 40, with lower RDQ scores showing an improved outcome.
次要结局
- Change From Baseline in RDQ Scores for the Dyspepsia Dimension(7 days)
- Change From Baseline in RDQ Scores for the Heartburn Dimension(7 days)
- Change From Baseline in RDQ Scores for the Regurgitation Dimension(7 days)
- Overall Treatment Evaluation (OTE) as a Measure of Patient Responsiveness/Satisfaction: Question 1 - Patient's Evaluation of the Change in Symptoms Over the Last 7 Days(7 days)
- OTE as a Measure of Patient Responsiveness/Satisfaction: Question 2 - Patient's Evaluation of the Importance of the Change in Symptoms(7 days)
- For Patients With Improvement Only: OTE as a Measure of Patient Responsiveness/Satisfaction: Question 2 - Patient's Evaluation of the Importance of the Change in Symptoms(7 days)
