What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Change From Baseline to Endpoint in the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF)- Erectile Function Domain Score (Sum of IIEF Questions 1-5 and 15)
Measures erectile function over the past 4 weeks on Questions 1-5 and 15 (6 questions) of the International Index of Erecile Function (IIEF) questionnaire. Scores range from 0 (low/no erectile function) to 5 (high erectile function), thus the 6 questions of the IIEF-EF domain range from 0 to 30.
Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks
Improvement in the Sexual Quality of Life in the Subject and His Study Partner as Measured by the Sexual Quality of Life (SQoL) Domain of the Sexual Life Quality Questionnaire (SLQQ)
The original item scores (-4 to 4 range) were converted to 0 to 8 scale score by adding 4 to each recorded responses. Each transformed score was multiplied by 12.5 for a total range of 0 to 100. Higher scores are indicative of a higher sexual quality of life.
Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks
Change From Baseline to Endpoint in the Percent of "Yes" Responses to Sexual Encounter Profile (SEP) Diary Questions 2 (SEP2) and 3 (SEP3).
The baseline and endpoint score for each SEP question 2 (Insert penis into vagina) and 3 (Successful intercourse) are the subject's percentage of "yes" responses to those questions during the run-in period and postbaseline period, respectively.
Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks
Secondary outcomes (11)
Change From Baseline to Week 12 Endpoint in the International Index of Erectile Function - Intercourse Satisfaction Domain - Subject Response
Self-reported intercourse satisfaction over the past 4 weeks. Scores range from 0 (low/no satisfaction to 5 (high satisfaction), thus the 3 questions of the IIEF-IS domain range from 0 to 15.
Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks
Change From Baseline to 12 Week Endpoint in Overall Satisfaction Domain of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-OS) - Subject Response
Self-reported overall satisfaction over the past 4 weeks. Scores range from 0 (low/no satisfaction to 5 (high satisfaction), thus the 2 questions of the IIEF-OS domain range from 0 to 10.
Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks
Sexual Life Quality Questionnaire (SLQQ) Treatment Satisfaction Domain
The 6 SLQQ-treatment satisfaction questions were answered by subject and partner at Visit 4/Final Visit. Original item scores (1 to 6 range) were converted to 0 to 5 scale by subtracting 1 to each recorded responses. Each transformed score was multiplied by 20. Total range of scores: 0 (low satisfaction) to 100 (high satisfaction).
Measured: 12 weeks
Change From Baseline to 12 Week Endpoint in Percent of "Yes" Responses to Sexual Encounter Profile (SEP) Questions 4 and 5 - Subject Response
The baseline and endpoint score for each SEP question 4 (Satisfied with hardness) and 5 (Satisfied overall) are the subject's percentage of "yes" responses to those questions during the run-in period and postbaseline period, respectively.
Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks
Change From Baseline to 12 Week Endpoint in Percent of "Yes" Responses to Partner-Sexual Encounter Profile (SEP) Question 3 - Partner Response
The baseline and endpoint score for partner SEP question 3 (Satisfied overall) are the partner's percentage of "yes" responses to the question during the run-in period and postbaseline period, respectively.
Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks
Change From Baseline to 12 Week Endpoint in the Satisfaction Domain of the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) - Partner Response
The FSFI Satisfaction Domain (items 14-16) measures satisfaction with emotional closeness, sexual relationship, and overall sexual life. Each question is scored on a 0/1 to 5 scale and domain score is calculated by multiplying the total points by 0.4, for a total score range of 0.8 to 6, with higher scores indicating greater satisfaction.
Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks
Percent of Subjects With "Yes" Responses to Global Assessment Questionnaire (GAQ) - Subject Response
Percent of subjects with "Yes" responses to Question 1 (Improvement in Erections) and Question 2 (Improvement in the Ability to Engage in Sexual Activity)
Measured: 12 weeks
Percent of Partners With "Yes" Responses to Global Assessment Questionnaire (GAQ) - Partner Response
Percent of Partners with "Yes" responses to Question 1 (Improvement in Erections) and Question 2 (Improvement in the Ability to Engage in Sexual Activity)
Measured: 12 weeks
Change From Baseline to 12 Week Endpoint in Percent of "Yes" Responses to Partner-Sexual Encounter Profile (SEP) Questions 1 and 2 - Partner Response
The baseline and endpoint score for each SEP question 1 (Achieve some erection) and 2 (Insert penis into vagina) are the partner's percentage of "yes" responses to those questions during the run-in period and postbaseline period, respectively.
Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks
Change From Baseline to 12 Week Endpoint in the Self-Esteem and Relationship (SEAR) Questionnaire
Measures improvement in self-esteem and relationship satisfaction. Questionnaire consists of two domains, Sexual Relationship (items 1-8) and Confidence (items 9-14). Overall score is transformed onto a 0 (least favorable) to 100 (most favorable) scale. Overall score was calculated from two domains and subscales scores.
Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks
Change From Baseline to 12 Week Endpoint in the Self-Esteem and Relationship (SEAR) Questionnaire - Confidence Domain Subscales
Measures improvement in confidence (items 9-14). Confidence domain consists of two subscales (Self-Esteem, items 9-12; Overall Relationship, items 13 and 14). Each domain score, subscale score, and overall score are transformed onto a 0 (least favorable) to 100 (most favorable) scale.
Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks

Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00422734, which also lists 2 linked publications.
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?
