What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Weekly Mean Pain Score at End of Treatment (Week 8) From Daily Pain Diary
Daily Pain Diary scale : mean score from 11-point numerical scale of pain; range: 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). Endpoint weekly mean pain score: mean of the last 7 available pain scores from a daily pain diary during double blind treatment.
Measured: each day of Week 8
Secondary outcomes (26)
Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) Anxiety Score
Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale Anxiety Score (HADS-A) consists of 7 items that are assessed by a score of 0 = no anxiety to 3 = severe feeling of anxiety. The anxiety subscale determines a state of generalized anxiety (including anxious mood, restlessness, anxious thoughts, panic attacks). Score range = 0 to 21; higher scores indicate a greater intensity of anxiety
Measured: Week 8
Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) Depression Score
Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale Depression Score (HADS-D) consists of 7 items that are assessed by a score of 0 = no depression to 3 = severe feeling of depression. The depression subscale focuses on the state of lost interest and diminished pleasure response ("lowering of hedonic tone"). Score range = 0 to 21; higher scores indicate a greater intensity of depression
Measured: Week 8
Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) Anxiety Score - FAS Subset With Moderate/Severe Baseline Scores
Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale Anxiety Score (HADS-A) consists of 7 items that are assessed by a score of 0 = no anxiety to 3 = severe feeling of anxiety. The anxiety subscale determines a state of generalized anxiety (including anxious mood, restlessness, anxious thoughts, panic attacks). Score range = 0 to 21; higher scores indicate a greater intensity of anxiety.
Measured: Week 8
Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) Depression Score - FAS Subset With Moderate/Severe Baseline Scores
Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS-D) consists of 7 items that are assessed by a score of 0 = no depression to 3 = severe feeling of depression. The depression subscale focuses on the state of lost interest and diminished pleasure response (lowering of hedonic tone). Score range = 0 to 21; higher scores indicate a greater intensity of depression
Measured: Week 8
Weekly Mean Pain Score From Daily Pain Diary
Daily Pain Diary scale : mean score from 11-point numerical scale of pain; range:0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). Mean of scores available for each week.
Measured: Baseline through Week 8
Number of Subjects With 30% and 50% Response in Weekly Mean Daily Pain Rating Score (DPRS) From Baseline Until Endpoint (Week 8)
Based on weekly mean daily pain rating score (DPRS), responders were defined as subjects with a >= 30% and >=50% reduction in weekly mean scores from baseline until endpoint (Week 8). Endpoint was calculated as the mean of the last 7 available pain scores from the daily pain diary while in the double-blind treatment phase.
Measured: Baseline, Week 8
Weekly Mean Sleep Interference Score
11-point numerical scale with which the patient describes pain interference with sleep over past 24 hours; range: 0 (pain does not interfere with sleep) to 10 (pain completely interferes with sleep). Endpoint weekly mean score: mean of last 7 available scores from daily sleep interference diary during double-blind treatment.
Measured: Week 8
Medical Outcome Study (MOS) Sleep Subscales
Medical Outcome Study (MOS) is a patient-rated questionnaire consisting of 12 items that assess key constructs of sleep (7 subscales as well as a 9-item overall sleep problems index. MOS-Sleep Scale is scored from 0 to 100. A higher score indicates more disturbance.
Measured: Week 8
Medical Outcome Study (MOS) Optimal Sleep
Number of subjects responding to have had optimal sleep. Optimal sleep is 1 item in the Medical Outcome Study (MOS)sleep scale, a patient-reported measure consisting of twelve items that assess the key constructs of sleep. Subjects were asked to recall sleep-related activities over the past week.
Measured: Week 8
Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC)
Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC): a patient-rated instrument that measures change in patient's overall status on a 7-point scale; range: 1 Very Much Improved to 7 Very Much Worse.
Measured: Week 8
Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGIC)
Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGIC): clinician's judgment of overall change in the patient's condition over a defined period on a 7-point scale; range: 1 Very Much Improved to 7 Very Much Worse.
Measured: Week 8
Pain Treatment Satisfaction Scale (PTSS): Impact of Current Pain Medication
Pain Treatment Satisfaction Scale (PTSS); Impact of Current Pain Medication: measure of patient satisfaction with treatment for acute or chronic pain. Response range: 1 (strongly agree) to 5 (strongly disagree). Mean scores were calculated and transformed onto a scale of 0-100, range: 0 = worst possible satisfaction to 100 = best possible satisfaction with pain treatment.
Measured: Screening, Week 8
Pain Treatment Satisfaction Scale (PTSS): Satisfaction With Current Pain Medication
Pain Treatment Satisfaction Scale (PTSS); Satisfaction with Current Pain Medication: measure of patient satisfaction with treatment for acute or chronic pain. Response range:1 (strongly agree) to 5 (strongly disagree). Mean scores were calculated and transformed onto a scale of 0-100, range: 0 = worst possible satisfaction to 100 = best possible satisfaction with pain treatment.
Measured: Screening, Week 8
Pain Treatment Satisfaction Scale (PTSS): Medication Characteristics
Pain Treatment Satisfaction Scale (PTSS); Medication Characteristics: measure of patient satisfaction with treatment for acute or chronic pain. Response range: 1 (strongly agree) to 5 (strongly disagree). Mean scores were calculated and transformed onto a scale of 0-100, range: 0 = worst possible satisfaction to 100 = best possible satisfaction with pain treatment.
Measured: Screening, Week 8
Pain Treatment Satisfaction Scale (PTSS): Efficacy
Pain Treatment Satisfaction Scale (PTSS); Efficacy: measure of patient satisfaction with treatment for acute or chronic pain. Response range: 1 (strongly agree) to 5 (strongly disagree).

Modified Brief Pain Inventory Short Form (m-BPI-sf): self-administered questionnaire to assess severity of pain (measured by 4 items)and impact of pain on daily functions (measured by 7 items)in past 24 hours. Items are rated on an 11-point scale ranging from 0 to 10, with higher scores indicating greater pain and/or interference due to pain.
Measured: Baseline, Week 8
Neuropathic Pain Symptom Inventory (NPSI) Total Intensity Score
Neuropathic Pain Symptom Inventory (NPSI) includes 10 descriptors (scale 0-10) of different pain symptoms \& 2 temporal items assessing the duration of spontaneous ongoing and paroxysmal pain.

Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00292188, which also lists 1 linked publication.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Feb 2021.
