What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The primary efficacy parameter is the endpoint mean pain score based on the pain scores from the subject's daily pain diaries.

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. The secondary efficacy parameters include the weekly mean pain scores from the subject's daily pain diaries

  2. The Short Form McGill Pain Questionnaire

  3. The Sleep interference score (from subject pain diary)

  4. The Clinician and Patient Global Impression of Change (CGIC and PGIC)

  5. The responder rate defined as the proportion of subjects reporting a decrease of at least 30% in the weekly mean pain scores in each treatment group.

  6. Addtionally, the safety and tolerability of Pregabalin will also be evaluated.

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The primary efficacy parameter is the endpoint mean pain score based on the pain scores from the subject's daily pain diaries.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

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.
