What is being measured

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

  1. Change From Baseline in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) Pain Domain Score at Week 2

    WOMAC: self-administered, disease-specific 24 item questionnaire which assesses clinically important, participant-relevant symptoms for pain, stiffness, and physical function in participants with osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip and/or knee. It consists of 3 domains: pain, stiffness and physical function. WOMAC pain domain consists of 5 questions scored on 5 point Likert scale (0=minimum pain to 4=maximum pain) where higher score indicates higher pain. It assesses amount of pain experienced due to OA in the study joint in past 48 hours. Total possible pain domain score calculated by addition of scores of each 5 questions ranged from: 0 (minimum) - 20 (maximum), higher scores indicate higher pain.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 2

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Change From Baseline in WOMAC Pain Domain Score at Week 1

    WOMAC: self-administered, disease-specific 24 item questionnaire which assesses clinically important, participant-relevant symptoms for pain, stiffness, and physical function in participants with OA of the hip and/or knee. It consists of 3 domains: pain, stiffness and physical function. WOMAC pain domain consists of 5 questions scored on 5 point Likert scale (0=minimum pain to 4=maximum pain) where higher score indicates higher pain. It assesses amount of pain experienced due to OA in the study joint in past 48 hours. Total possible pain domain score calculated by addition of scores of each 5 questions ranged from: 0 (minimum) - 20 (maximum), higher scores indicate higher pain.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 1

  2. Change From Baseline in WOMAC Stiffness Domain Score at Week 1 and Week 2

    WOMAC: self-administered, disease-specific 24 item questionnaire which assesses clinically important, participant-relevant symptoms for pain, stiffness, and physical function in participants with OA of the hip and/or knee. It consists of 3 domains: pain, stiffness and physical function. WOMAC stiffness domain consist of 2 questions scored on 5 point Likert scale (0=minimum stiffness to 4= maximum stiffness), higher score indicates higher stiffness. It assesses stiffness (sensation of decreased ease) due to OA in study joint in past 48 hours. Total possible stiffness domain score calculated by addition of scores of each 2 questions ranged from: 0 (minimum) to 8 (maximum), higher scores indicate higher stiffness.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 1, 2

  3. Change From Baseline in WOMAC Physical Function Domain Score at Week 1 and Week 2

    WOMAC: self-administered, disease-specific 24 item questionnaire which assesses clinically important, participant-relevant symptoms for pain, stiffness, and physical function in participants with OA of the hip and/or knee. It consists of 3 domains: pain, stiffness and physical function. WOMAC physical function consists of 17 questions scored on 5 point Likert scale (0=minimum physical impairment to 4=maximum physical impairment), higher score indicates worse function. It assesses worse function (ability to move/perform activity) due to OA in study joint in past 48 hours. Total possible score calculated by addition of scores of each 17 questions ranged from: 0 (minimum) to 68 (maximum), higher scores indicate worse function.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 1, 2

  4. Change From Baseline in WOMAC Total Score at Week 1 and Week 2

    WOMAC: self-administered, disease-specific instrument assessing clinically important, participant-relevant symptoms for pain, stiffness, physical function in participants with OA of the hip and/or knee. Index consists of 24 questions: 5 (pain), 2 (stiffness), 17 (physical function). Each question was assessed on a 5-point Likert scale (0= none to 4=extreme), higher score indicates worse function. Total WOMAC Score: summation of 24 component item scores, without any correction for relative importance of different subscales. Total score range 0 (minimum) to 96 (maximum), higher score indicate higher symptoms.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 1, 2

  5. Change From Baseline in WOMAC Importance Weighted Total Score at Week 1 and Week 2

    WOMAC: self-administered, disease-specific instrument assessing clinically important, participant-relevant symptoms for pain, stiffness, physical function in participants with OA of hip or knee. Index consists of 24 questions: 5 (pain), 2 (stiffness), 17 (physical function). Each question was assessed on a 5-point Likert scale; score range: 0 (none) to 4 (extreme) where higher score indicates worse function. Importance-weighted total WOMAC score weighs 3 subscales of pain, stiffness, physical function using factors of 0.42, 0.21, and 0.37 to account for relative importance. Total score calculated by applying factors and summing all domains ranged from 0 (minimum) to 35.24 (maximum), higher score indicate higher symptoms.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 1, 2

  6. Change From Baseline in 11 Point Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NRS) at Week 1 and Week 2 (Weekly Average)

    NRS: participant rated their daily pain on 11-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain) during past 24-hour period. Higher score indicates greater level of pain.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 1, 2

  7. Change From Baseline in 11 Point NRS at Each Day From Day 1 to Day 14

    NRS: participant rated their daily pain on 11-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain) during past 24-hour period. Higher score indicates greater level of pain.

    Measured: Baseline, Days 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14

  8. Number of Participants With at Least a 30 Percent (%) and 50% Reduction in Average Weekly Pain Score at Week 2: Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF)

    Participant rated their daily pain on 11-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain) during past 24-hour period. Higher score indicates greater level of pain. In this outcome measure number of participants with at least 30% and 50% reduction in average weekly pain score at Week 2 from Baseline are reported. Average weekly score at Week 2 was average of daily pain scores from Day 8 to Day 14 and at Baseline it was average of daily pain scores from Day -6 to Day 0.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 2

  9. Change From Baseline in Patient's Global Assessment of Arthritic Condition at Week 1 and Week 2

    Participants answered the following question: "Considering all the ways your arthritis affects you, how are you doing today?" Participants rated their condition using the scale assessing the symptoms and limitations to carry out normal daily activities. Score ranged from 1 to 5; where 1= very good (No symptoms and limitations); 2= good (mild symptoms and no limitations); 3= fair (moderate symptoms and some limitations); 4= poor (severe symptoms and inability to carry out most activities); and 5= very Poor (very severe, intolerable symptoms and inability to carry out all activities). Higher scores indicated more limitations in carrying out normal activities.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 1, 2
