Registered outcomes9
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Number of Participants With Gastric Ulcer Confirmed by Endoscopy | 6 months | The primary efficacy endpoint was the number of subjects with gastric ulcers at any time throughout 6 months of treatment. An ulcer was defined as a mucosal break of at least 3 mm in diameter (measured by close application of open endoscopic biopsy forceps) with unequivocal crater depth. A subject is considered to have completed the study if all scheduled assessments up through the 6 month visit have been performed or if the endpoint of gastric ulcer confirmed by endoscopy has been reached. |
| Secondary | The Number of Participants With Pre-Specified NSAID-Associated Upper GI Adverse Events or Duodenal Ulcers | 6 months | The Number of Participants with Pre-Specified non-steroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID)-Associated Upper Gastrointestinal (UGI) Adverse Events or Duodenal Ulcers after 6 months of treatment. Pre-specified UGI adverse events typically associated with NSAID use include dyspepsia, abdominal pain, gastritis, erosive esophagitis, duodenitis, abdominal discomfort |
| Secondary | The Number of Participants Discontinuing From the Study Due to NSAID-Associated Upper GI Adverse Events or to Duodenal Ulcer | 6 Months | The Number of Participants Discontinuing from the Study Due to non-steroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID)-Associated Upper GI Adverse Events or to Duodenal Ulcer during the treatment period |
| Secondary | The Number of Participants Developing Duodenal Ulcers Throughout 6 Months of Treatment | 6 months | The Number of Participants Developing Duodenal Ulcers at any time during the 6 Months of the treatment period |
| Secondary | Heartburn Symptom Resolution, ie no Heartburn Symptoms During the Last 7 Days Prior to the Visit | 6 months | Subjects were asked whether heartburn symptoms within the 7 days prior to the visit were: * none: no symptoms * mild: awareness of symptom, but easily tolerated * moderate: discomforting symptom sufficient to cause interference with normal activities (including sleep) * severe: incapacitating symptom, with inability to perform normal activities (including sleep) Heartburn was defined as a burning feeling rising from the stomach or lower part of the chest towards the neck. |
| Secondary | Improvement From Baseline in Upper Abdominal Pain and Discomfort Scores at 6 Months, Based on the Overall Treatment Evaluation for Dyspepsia Questionnaire | change from baseline at 6 Months | Improvement from baseline in Upper Abdominal Pain and Discomfort scores at 6 months, based on the overall Treatment Evaluation for Dyspepsia Questionnaire. Subjects were asked: "since treatment started, has there been any change in your upper abdominal pain and/or discomfort?" Answers would be better/about the same/worse. Participants with the response "better" (instead of "about the same" or "worse"), are tabulated by treatment group. |
| Secondary | Mean Change From Baseline on Pain Intensity of the Severity of Dyspepsia Assessment (SODA) Subscales | baseline to 6 Months | Mean Change from Baseline on Pain Intensity of the Severity of Dyspepsia Assessment (SODA) Subscales. There are 6 questions about abdominal pain during the past 7 days: q 1-5 on average: 1. rate with a number between 0 (no pain) and 100 (pain as bad as it could be), 2. rate with a number between 0 (no discomfort) and 10 (discomfort as bad as it can be), 3. on a scale of 5 (from none to excriciating), 4. on 100 mm VAS, 5. on a scale of 4 and 6. worst abdominal pain scale 0 (no discomfort) and 10 (discomfort as bad as it can be). Total composite possible range for "pain intensity" is: 2-47 |
| Secondary | Mean Change From Baseline on Non-Pain Symptoms of the Severity of Dyspepsia Assessment (SODA) Subscales | baseline to 6 Months | Change from Baseline of Non-Pain Symptoms on the SODA Assessment. There are 7 categories about the non-pain symptoms: burping/beching, heartburn, bloating, passing gas, sour taste, nausea and bad breath. For each of these categories, subjects were to rate during the past seven days, on average, the severity on a 5 point scale ranging from no problem to very severe problem. The scores are combined into a single composite score. The total possible range of the non-pain symptoms subscale is: 7-35. |
| Secondary | Mean Change From Baseline on Satisfaction of the Severity of Dyspepsia Assessment (SODA) Subscales | baseline to 6 Months | Mean Change in Satisfaction on SODA Assessment. Questions/statements to rate about satisfaction/dissatisfaction with their present level of abdominal discomfort. Question 1: 4-point scale range 0 (extremely unhappy) to 4 (extremely happy), statement 2 (I feel satisfied with my health with regard to abdominal discomfort) \& statement 3 (I am pleased because my abdominal discomfort seems under control) on a 5 point scale (definitely true to definitely false) \& question 4 rated how pleased subjects were with abdominal discomfort on a 10 point scale. Total satisfaction composite range: 2-23 |
