  • Time to a ≥30% and a ≥50% reduction from Baseline in the daily average LBPI NRS score (sustained for a minimum of 4 consecutive days). 12 weeks No
  • Change from Baseline to Weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 12 in the Modified Brief Pain Inventory-short form (mBPI-sf) scores for Worst Pain and Average Pain obtained at study visits. 12 weeks No
  • Response as defined by a score of ≤2 in the mean daily average LBPI NRS score during Weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 12 as derived from the daily patient e-diary. 12 weeks No
  • Percent change from Baseline in the LBPI NRS score through Week 6. 6 weeks No
  • Change from Baseline to Weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 12 in Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire total score. 12 weeks No
  • Patient's Global Evaluation of Study Medication (treatment response) score at Weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 12. 12 weeks No
  • Response as defined by a ≥30% and a ≥50% reduction from Baseline in the daily average LBPI NRS score (sustained for a minimum of 4 consecutive days). 12 weeks No
  • Change from Baseline to Weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 12 in the mBPI-sf score for Pain. 12 weeks No
