PrimaryChange From Baseline in the Monthly Mean Dysmenorrhea Score During the Double-blind Treatment PhaseBaseline and Weeks 4 and 8
Participants assessed dysmenorrhea (pain during menstruation) and its impact on their daily activities at approximately the same time each day of their period in an electronic diary (e-Diary) according to the following response options: * 0 = No discomfort * 1 = Mild discomfort but I was easily able to do the things I usually do * 2 = Moderate discomfort or pain that made it difficult to do some of the things I usually do * 3 = Severe pain that made it difficult to do the things I usually do. The monthly mean dysmenorrhea score is the average of the daily values reported during the 4 weeks prior to each visit.
PrimaryChange From Baseline in the Monthly Mean Dysmenorrhea Score During the Open-label and Posttreatment PhasesBaseline and Weeks 12, 16, 20, 24, and 30 (6 weeks posttreatment)
Participants assessed dysmenorrhea (pain during menstruation) and its impact on their daily activities at approximately the same time each day of their period in an electronic diary (e-Diary) according to the following response options: * 0 = No discomfort * 1 = Mild discomfort but I was easily able to do the things I usually do * 2 = Moderate discomfort or pain that made it difficult to do some of the things I usually do * 3 = Severe pain that made it difficult to do the things I usually do. The monthly mean dysmenorrhea score is the average of the daily values reported during the 4 weeks prior to each visit, except for the week 30 value which is based on 6 weeks of data.
PrimaryChange From Baseline in the Monthly Mean Non-menstrual Pelvic Pain Score During the Double-Blind Treatment PhaseBaseline and weeks 4 and 8
Participants assessed their pelvic pain not related to menses and its impact on their daily activities at approximately the same time each day they were not having their period in an e-Diary according to the following response options: * 0 = No discomfort * 1 = Mild discomfort but I was easily able to do the things I usually do * 2 = Moderate discomfort or pain that made it difficult to do some of the things I usually do * 3 = Severe pain that made it difficult to do the things I usually do. The monthly mean non-menstrual pelvic pain score is the average of the daily values reported during the 4 weeks prior to each visit.
PrimaryChange From Baseline in the Monthly Mean Non-menstrual Pelvic Pain Score During the Open-label and Posttreatment PhasesBaseline and Weeks 12, 16, 20, 24, and 30 (6 weeks posttreatment)
Participants assessed their pelvic pain not related to menses and its impact on their daily activities at approximately the same time each day they were not having their period in an e-Diary according to the following response options: * 0 = No discomfort * 1 = Mild discomfort but I was easily able to do the things I usually do * 2 = Moderate discomfort or pain that made it difficult to do some of the things I usually do * 3 = Severe pain that made it difficult to do the things I usually do. The monthly mean non-menstrual pelvic pain score is the average of the daily values reported during the 4 weeks prior to each visit, except for the week 30 value which is based on 6 weeks of data.
PrimaryChange From Baseline in the Monthly Mean Cumulative Pain Score During the Double-Blind Treatment PhaseBaseline and weeks 4 and 8
Participants assessed dysmenorrhea or non-menstrual pelvic pain at approximately the same time each day in an e-Diary according to the following: * 0 = No discomfort * 1 = Mild discomfort but I was easily able to do the things I usually do * 2 = Moderate discomfort or pain that made it difficult to do some of the things I usually do * 3 = Severe pain that made it difficult to do the things I usually do. The monthly mean cumulative pain score is the average of the daily values for all days (menstrual and non-menstrual) reported during the 4 weeks prior to each visit.
PrimaryChange From Baseline in the Monthly Mean Cumulative Pain Score During the Open-label and Posttreatment PhasesBaseline and Weeks 12, 16, 20, 24, and 30 (6 weeks posttreatment)
Participants assessed dysmenorrhea or non-menstrual pelvic pain at approximately the same time each day in an e-Diary according to the following: * 0: No discomfort * 1: Mild discomfort, I was easily able to do the things I usually do * 2: Moderate discomfort or pain making it difficult to do some of the things I usually do * 3: Severe pain making it difficult to do the things I usually do The monthly mean cumulative pain score is the average of the daily values for all days (menstrual and non-menstrual) reported during the 4 weeks prior to each visit, except for the week 30 value which is based on 6 weeks of data.
PrimaryChange From Baseline in the Monthly Mean Dyspareunia Score During the Double-Blind Treatment PhaseBaseline and weeks 4 and 8
Participants assessed their dyspareunia (pain during sexual intercourse) at approximately the same time every day in an e-Diary according to the following response options: * 0 = Absent; No discomfort during sexual intercourse * 1 = Mild; I was able to tolerate the discomfort during sexual intercourse * 2 = Moderate; Intercourse was interrupted due to pain * 3 = Severe; I avoided intercourse because of pain * Does not apply; I was not sexually active for reasons other than my endometriosis or did not have sexual intercourse The monthly mean dyspareunia score is the average of the daily values reported during the 4 weeks prior to each visit. Responses of "does not apply" were not included in the calculations.
PrimaryChange From Baseline in the Monthly Mean Dyspareunia Score During the Open-label and Posttreatment PhasesBaseline and Weeks 12, 16, 20, 24, and 30 (6 weeks posttreatment)
Participants assessed their dyspareunia (pain during sexual intercourse) at approximately the same time every day in an e-Diary according to the following response options: * 0: Absent; No discomfort during sexual intercourse * 1: Mild; I was able to tolerate the discomfort during sexual intercourse * 2: Moderate; Intercourse was interrupted due to pain * 3: Severe; I avoided intercourse because of pain * Does not apply; I was not sexually active for reasons other than my endometriosis or did not have sexual intercourse The monthly mean dyspareunia score is the average of the daily values reported during the 4 weeks prior to each visit, except for week 30 which is based on 6 weeks of data. Responses of "does not apply" were not included in the calculations.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With a Response in Monthly Mean Dysmenorrhea Score at Week 8Baseline and Week 8
Participants assessed dysmenorrhea (pain during menstruation) and its impact on their daily activities at approximately the same time each day of their period in an e-Diary according to the following response options: * 0: No discomfort * 1: Mild discomfort but I was easily able to do the things I usually do * 2: Moderate discomfort or pain that made it difficult to do some of the things I usually do * 3: Severe pain that made it difficult to do the things I usually do. The monthly mean dysmenorrhea score is the average of the daily values reported during the 4 weeks prior to each time point. Response was defined as the percentage of participants with a percent decrease from baseline in the week 8 monthly mean score that was greater than or equal to each specified threshold value (10% through 90% in steps of 10%).
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With a Response in Monthly Mean Non-menstrual Pelvic Pain Score at Week 8Baseline and Week 8
Participants assessed their pelvic pain not related to menses and its impact on their daily activities at approximately the same time each day they were not having their period in an e-Diary according to the following response options: * 0 = No discomfort * 1 = Mild discomfort but I was easily able to do the things I usually do * 2 = Moderate discomfort or pain that made it difficult to do some of the things I usually do * 3 = Severe pain that made it difficult to do the things I usually do. The monthly mean non-menstrual pelvic pain score is the average of the daily values reported during the 4 weeks prior to each time point. Response is defined as the percentage of participants with a percent decrease from baseline in the week 8 monthly mean score that was greater than or equal to each specified threshold value (10% through 90% in steps of 10%).
