Registered outcomes7

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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPrimary Endpoints of Retention in Treatment at Days 3 and 15Day 3 and Day 15
Retention rates (number of patients retained) for the primary efficacy endpoints of retention in treatment at Days 3 and 15, which was defined as the number of patients who received treatment on Days 3 and 15.
SecondaryClinical Opiate Withdrawal Scale (COWS) Scores: InductionDays 1 and 2
Absolute ± mean standard deviation values for COWS total scores at baseline; 0.5 h, 1.5 h, 3 h, and 6 h post dose on Day 1, and Day 2; COWS scores range from 0-48, with a lower score being more favorable
SecondaryCOWS Total Scores: Stabilization/MaintenanceDays 3 through 22Absolute ± mean standard deviation values for COWS total scores at Days 3, 4, 8, 15, and 22; COWS scores range from 0-48, with a lower score being more favorable
SecondarySubjective Opiate Withdrawal Scale (SOWS) Scores: InductionDays 1 and 2
Absolute ± mean standard deviation values for SOWS total scores at baseline, 0.5 h, 1.5 h, 3 h, and 6 h post dose on Day 1, and Day 2; SOWS score ranges from 0-64, with a lower score being more favorable
SecondarySOWS Total Scores: Stabilization/MaintenanceDays 3 through 22Absolute ± mean standard deviation values for SOWS total scores on Days 2, 3, 4, 8, 15, and 22; SOWS scores ranged from 0-64, with a lower score being more favorable
SecondaryVisual Analog Scale (VAS) Cravings: InductionDays 1 and 2
Absolute mean ± standard deviation values for VAS cravings at baseline, 0.5 h, 1.5 h, 3 h, and 6 post dose on Day 1, and Day 2; the VAS craving scores range from 0 ("no cravings") to 100 ("most intense craving I have ever had")
SecondaryVAS Craving Scores: Stabilization/MaintenanceDays 3 through 22Absolute mean ± standard deviation values for VAS cravings scores on Days 3, 4, 8, 15, and 22; the VAS craving scores range from 0 ("no cravings") to 100 ("most intense craving I have ever had")
