- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) 24-hour Average Rating Baseline, Week 4, Week 7, Week 13 A self-reported scale that measures the severity of pain based on the average pain over the past 24-hours. The severity scores range from 0 (no pain) to 10 (pain as severe as you can imagine). Changes are timepoint minus baseline.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Mean Values at 13 Week Endpoint in Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) 13 Weeks A scale that measures the patient's perception of improvement at the time of assessment compared with the start of treatment. The score ranges from 1 (very much better) to 7 (very much worse).
Change From Baseline to 13 Week Endpoint in Western Ontario and McMaster Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) Physical Function Subscale Baseline and 13 Weeks The WOMAC index (pain, stiffness, physical function subscales) will be completed by the patient. The physical function subscale has 17 questions on physical function difficulties with every day tasks. Each question is answered using a 5-point Likert scale (0 to 4). The physical function subscale has a range of scores of 0 (none) to 68 (extreme).
Change From Baseline to 13 Week Endpoint in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) Pain Subscale Baseline and 13 Weeks The WOMAC index (pain, stiffness, physical function subscales) will be completed by the patient. The pain subscale has 5 questions on pain associated with every day tasks. Each question is answered using a 5-point Likert scale (0 to 4). The pain subscale has a range of scores of 0 (none) to 20 (extreme).
Change From Baseline to 13 Week Endpoint in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) Stiffness Subscale Baseline and 13 Weeks The WOMAC index (pain, stiffness, physical function subscales) will be completed by the patient. The stiffness subscale has 2 questions on stiffness associated with time of day (morning versus later in the day). Each question is answered using a 5-point Likert scale (0 to 4). The pain subscale has a range of scores of 0 (none) to 8 (extreme).
Change From Baseline to 13 Week Endpoint in Weekly Mean of the 24-Hour Average Pain and Worst Pain Scores Baseline and 13 Weeks This assesses the weekly mean of the average pain and worst pain experienced over the last 24-hours. This is an ordinal scale with scores for each subscale (average pain and worst pain) ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). Change = endpoint minus baseline.
Change From Baseline to 13 Week Endpoint in Clinical Global Impression of Severity (CGI-S) Baseline and 13 Weeks Measures severity of illness at the time of assessment. Scores range from 1 (normal, not at all ill) to 7 (among the most extremely ill patients.
Number of Participants Who Responded to Treatment at 13 Week Endpoint 13 Weeks Response to treatment was defined as a ≥ 30% reduction from baseline to endpoint in Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) average pain score. The BPI measures the severity of pain based on the average pain experienced over the past 24-hours. The severity scores range from 0 (no pain) to 10 (pain as severe as you can imagine).
Mean Change From Baseline to 13 Week Endpoint in Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36 (SF-36) Medical Component Summary (MCS), Physical Component Summary (PCS), and Domain Scores Baseline and 13 Weeks MCS and PCS scores=0-100 (higher scores indicate better health status). Domain scores:general health=5-25, physical functioning=10-30, Role-physical=4-8, Role-emotional=3-6, social functioning=2-10, bodily pain=2-11, vitality=4-24, mental health=5-30.
Change From Baseline to 13 Week Endpoint in EuroQoL Questionnaire - 5 Dimension (EQ-5D) Baseline and 13 Weeks The EQ-5D is an assessment of one's overall health. Consists of 5 items. Patients choose 1 of 3 options that best describe the status of each item. The EQ-5D US based index scores range from -0.11 to 1.0 where a score of 1.0 indicates perfect health. A positive change from baseline indicates health improvement.
Change From Baseline to 13 Week Endpoint in Beck Depression Inventory - II (BDI-II) Baseline and 13 Weeks A 21-item, patient-completed questionnaire to assess characteristics of depression. Each of the 21 items corresponding to a symptom of depression is summed to give a single score. There is a four-point scale for each item ranging from 0 to 3. Total score of 0-13 is considered minimal range, 14-19 is mild, 20-28 is moderate, and 29-63 is severe.
Change From Baseline to 13 Week Endpoint in Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale - Anxiety Subscale (HADS-A) Baseline and 13 Weeks A 14-item questionnaire with 2 subscales: anxiety (7 items) and depression (7 items). Each item is rated on a 4-point scale (0 to 3), giving maximum scores of 21 for anxiety subscale. Scores of 11 or more are considered to be a significant 'case' of psychological morbidity, while scores of 8-10 represent 'borderline' and 0-7, 'normal.'
Change From Baseline to 13 Week Endpoint in Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) Severity: Worst Pain Score Baseline and 13 Weeks A self-reported scale that measures the severity of pain based on the worst pain experienced over the past 24-hours. The severity scores range from 0 (no pain) to 10 (pain as severe as you can imagine).
Change From Baseline to 13 Week Endpoint in Brief Pain Inventory Severity: Least Pain Score Baseline and 13 Weeks A self-reported scale that measures the severity of pain based on the least pain experienced over the past 24-hours. The severity scores range from 0 (no pain) to 10 (pain as severe as you can imagine).
Change From Baseline to 13 Week Endpoint in Brief Pain Inventory Severity: Average Pain Score Baseline and 13 Weeks A self-reported scale that measures the severity of pain based on the average pain experienced over the past 24-hours. The severity scores range from 0 (no pain) to 10 (pain as severe as you can imagine).
