Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Number of Participants With Positive Treatment-Related Anti-Drug Antibodies (ADA) in Serum | Baseline (Day 1) up to 52 weeks or 8 months post last dose if ADA positive at Week 52 (approximately 84 weeks) | Participants who met either of the following criteria: 1) treatment-induced ADA-positive (≥ 1 postbaseline ADA-positive sample) for baseline ADA negative or ADA-undetermined participants or 2) treatment-boosted ADA-positive (≥ 1 postbaseline ADA-positive sample with titer values ≥ 4-fold the baseline titer value) for baseline ADA-positive participants were reported as a ADA positive responder. |
| Secondary | Change From Baseline in Participant's Assessment of Constipation Severity | Baseline (Day 1) to Weeks 2, 4, 12, 26, 40 and 52 (Open Label Treatment Period) | Participants rated constipation severity during the previous 7 days on a 5-point ordinal scale where, 1=None, 2=Mild, 3=Moderate, 4=Severe and 5=Very Severe. Higher scores indicate greater severity. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement. |
| Secondary | Change From Baseline in Participant Assessment of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) Symptom Severity for Participants With Irritable Bowel Syndrome With Constipation (IBS-C) | Baseline (Day 1) to Week 2, 4, 12, 26, 40 and 52 (Open Label Treatment Period) | Participants rated IBS symptoms severity during the previous 7 days on a 5-point ordinal scale where, 1=None, 2=Mild, 3=Moderate, 4=Severe and 5=Very severe. Higher scores indicate greater severity. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement. |
| Secondary | Change From Baseline in Degree of Relief of IBS Symptoms for Participants With IBS-C | Baseline (Day 1) to Weeks 2, 4, 12, 26, 40 and 52 (Open Label Treatment Period) | Participants rated degree of relief of IBS symptoms during previous 7 days on a 7-point balanced ordinal scale where, 1=completely relieved, 2=considerably relieved, 3=somewhat relieved, 4=unchanged, 5=somewhat worse, 6=considerably worse and 7=as bad as I can imagine. Lower scores indicate greater relief. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement. |
| Secondary | IBS Treatment Satisfaction Assessment Postbaseline for Participants With IBS-C | Weeks 2, 4, 12, 26, 40 and 52 (Open Label Treatment Period) | Participants rated degree of satisfaction with the LINZESS®'s ability to relieve IBS symptoms on a 5-point ordinal scale where, 1=Not at all satisfied, 2=A little satisfied, 3=Moderately satisfied, 4=Quite satisfied and 5=Very satisfied. Higher scores indicate greater satisfaction. |
| Secondary | Constipation Treatment Satisfaction Assessment Postbaseline for Participants With Chronic Idiopathic Constipation (CIC) | Weeks 2, 4, 12, 26, 40 and 52 (Open Label Treatment Period) | Participants rated degree of satisfaction with LINZESS®'s ability to relieve constipation symptoms on a 5-point ordinal scale where 1=Not at all satisfied, 2=A little satisfied, 3=Moderately satisfied, 4=Quite satisfied and 5=Very satisfied. Higher scores indicate greater satisfaction. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Recurrence of Diarrhea | From first dose in the Double-blind Treatment Period to Week 52 | Participant reporting any instance of diarrhea during the Double-blind Treatment Period. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Recurrence of Intolerable Diarrhea | From first dose in the Double-blind Treatment Period to Week 52 | Participants reporting any instance of intolerable diarrhea during the Double-blind Treatment Period (Non-responder otherwise). Only includes participants reporting intolerable diarrhea during the Open-label Treatment Period. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAE) | From first dose of study treatment up to Week 52 | An adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product. A TEAE is an AE that occurred after receiving the first dose of investigational product or an AE present prior to first dose but increased in severity during the Treatment Period. |
| Secondary | Time to First Recurrence of Diarrhea | From first dose in the Double-blind Treatment Period to Week 52 | Time to first recurrence of diarrhea was defined as event/censored date - double-blind start date + 1, where event date (responders) = first recurrence of diarrhea date during the double-blind treatment period; censoring date (non-responders) = double-blind end date. Only includes participants reporting intolerable diarrhea during the open-label treatment period. |
