Registered outcomes7

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercent of Subjects Without Recurrence of DiverticulitisUp to 104 weeks
Recurrence of diverticulitis is defined as the presence of each and all of the following 3 items: 1) abdominal pain, 2) a 15% increase in white blood cell count from baseline, 3) bowel wall thickening (\>5 mm) and/or fat stranding as evidenced by spiral computerized axial tomography (CT) scan; OR surgical intervention for diverticular disease. Withdrawals are considered as recurrences.
SecondaryPercent of Subjects Who Were CT-Recurrence Free of DiverticulitisUp to 104 weeks
CT-recurrence of diverticulitis is defined as: a positive spiral CT scan for diverticulitis showing, at a minimum, fat stranding with or without bowel wall thickening \>5 mm or surgical intervention for diverticular disease. Withdrawals considered as CT-recurrences.
SecondaryNumber of CT Scans Performed Within 7 Days of Suspected Recurrence of Diverticulitis That Were PositiveUp to 104 weeksA positive CT scan was defined as a CT scan that showed bowel wall thickening (\>5 mm) and/or fat stranding as read by the central reader.
SecondaryNumber of CT Scans Performed Within 7 Days of Suspected Recurrence of Diverticulitis That Were NegativeUp to 104 weeksA negative CT scan was defined as a CT scan that did not show bowel wall thickening (\>5 mm) and/or fat stranding as read by the central reader.
SecondaryNumber of CT Scans Performed More Than 7 Days From Suspected Recurrence of Diverticulitis That Were PositiveUp to 104 weeksA positive CT scan was defined as a CT scan that showed bowel wall thickening (\>5 mm) and/or fat stranding as read by the central reader.
SecondaryNumber of CT Scans Performed More Than 7 Days From Suspected Recurrence of Diverticulitis That Were NegativeUp to 104 weeksA negative CT scan was defined as a CT scan that did not show bowel wall thickening (\>5 mm) and/or fat stranding as read by the central reader.
