ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercentage of Participants With a Reduction of Mean GH Level to <2.5 μg/L and the Normalization of IGF-112 months
Percentage of participants with a reduction of mean GH levels to \<2.5μg/L (based on a 5-point 2-hour profile) and normalization of sex- and age-adjusted IGF-1. Post surgery = patients with prior surgery but no previous medical treatment for acromegaly De novo = patients with de novo disease who refused pituitary surgery or for whom pituitary surgery was contraindicated.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With a Reduction of Mean GH Level to < 2.5μg/L12 Months
Percentage of participants with a reduction of mean GH levels to \< 2.5μg/L (based on a 5-point 2-hour profile). Post surgery = patients with prior surgery but no previous medical treatment for acromegaly De novo = patients with de novo disease who refused pituitary surgery or for whom pituitary surgery was contraindicated.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Tumor Volume at 12 MonthsBaseline, 12 Months
Absolute and percentage change from baseline in tumor volume (assessed by pituitary MRI) Post surgery = patients with prior surgery but no previous medical treatment for acromegaly De novo = patients with de novo disease who refused pituitary surgery or for whom pituitary surgery was contraindicated.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Normalization of IGF-112 Months
Percentage of participants with normalization of sex- and age-adjusted IGF-1. Post surgery = patients with prior surgery but no previous medical treatment for acromegaly De novo = patients with de novo disease who refused pituitary surgery or for whom pituitary surgery was contraindicated.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With a Reduction of Mean GH Level to < 2.5μg/L and Normalization of IGF-1Months 3, 6, 9, 12, 16, 19, 22, 25
Percentage of participants with a reduction of mean GH levels to \< 2.5μg/L (based on a 5-point 2-hour profile) and normalization of sex- and age-adjusted IGF-1. Denominator for time points up to Month 12 is the Full Analysis Set (FAS). Denominator for time points after Month 12 excludes patients who completed the core and did not enter the extension. Patients who discontinued were considered non-responders for the time points after discontinuation, patients who crossed over were considered non-responders for all time points after crossover. Analysis was based on data up to crossover (i.e., included data from both blinded core \& ext. phase up to 26 Months for patients who continued the same treatment in the extension. For patients who switched to the other treatment, only data collected before crossover was included.)
SecondarySummary of Mean GH ValuesBaseline, Months 3, 6, 9, 12, 16, 19, 22, 25
Mean GH levels (based on a 5-point profile over 2 hours). Analysis was based on data up to crossover (i.e., included data from both blinded core and extension phase up to 26 Months for patients who continued the same treatment in the extension. For patients who switched to the other treatment, only data collected before crossover was included).
SecondaryTime to First Response for Patients Achieving a Reduction of Mean GH Level to < 2.5 μg/L and Normalization of IGF-1 (No. of Responders: Pasireotite LAR = 81, Octreotide LAR = 63) )Up to 26 months
Time to first response for patients achieving a reduction of mean GH level to \< 2.5 μg/L and normalization of IGF-1. Analysis was based on data up to crossover (i.e., included data from both blinded core and extension phase up to 26 Months for patients who continued the same treatment in the extension. For patients who switched to the other treatment, only data collected before crossover was included).
SecondarySeverity Scores of Acromegaly SymptomsBaseline, Months 12, 25
Severity scores of acromegaly symptoms (Headache, Fatigue, Perspiration, Paresthesias, Osteoarthralgia). Symptoms were scored from 0 (no symptom) to 4 (very severe). Analysis was based on data up to crossover (i.e., included data from both blinded core and extension phase up to 26 Months for patients who continued the same treatment in the extension. For patients who switched to the other treatment, only data collected before crossover was included).
SecondaryRing SizeBaseline, Months 12, 25
Ring size (based on jeweler's finger gauge). Analysis was based on data up to crossover (i.e., included data from both blinded core and extension phase up to 26 Months for patients who continued the same treatment in the extension. For patients who switched to the other treatment, only data collected before crossover was included).
SecondaryHealth-related Quality-of-life as Measured by the AcroQoL QuestionnaireBaseline, Months 12, 25
Acromegalyy quality of life (AcroQoL) total scores. The AcroQoL questionnaire is unidimensional and contains 22 items divided in two scales: one that evaluates physical aspects (eight items) and another one that evaluates psychological aspects (14 items). The scoring of the questionnaire was performed as specified by the instrument developers. Total scores range from 0 to 100. Higher scores represent better quality of life. Analysis was based on data up to crossover (i.e., included data from both blinded core and extension phase up to 26 Months for patients who continued the same treatment in the extension. For patients who switched to the other treatment, only data collected before crossover was included).
