| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Percentage of Participants With Subject's Rating of Medication Helpfulness Impression on Day 3 of Treatment | Day 3 | Participants assessed the study medication helpfulness on a daily basis (in the daily diary), using the following 5-point rating scale: "How would you rate this study medication in improving your condition?" "0 = poor", "1 = fair", "2 = good", "3 = very good", "4 = excellent". |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Subject's Rating of Medication Helpfulness Impression on Days 7 and 14 of Treatment | Days 7 and 14 | Participants assessed the study medication helpfulness on a daily basis (in the daily diary), using the following 5-point rating scale: "How would you rate this study medication in improving your condition?" "0 = poor", "1 = fair", "2 = good", "3 = very good", "4 = excellent". |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Physician's Clinical Global Assessment on Day 3 of Treatment | Day 3 | The investigator assessed their clinical global impression of change compared to Baseline, based on physical examination, degree of muscle spasm (presence of muscle spasm assessment), reaction to palpation (presence of local pain assessment), limitation of range of motion, and evaluation of the patient's reported functional assessment (limitation of activities of daily living assessment). The following 5-point rating scale was used: "1 = worse", "2 = no change", "3 = slight improvement", "4 = moderate improvement", "5 = marked improvement". |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Physician's Clinical Global Assessment on Days 7 and 15 of Treatment | Days 7 and 15 | The investigator assessed their clinical global impression of change compared to Baseline, based on physical examination, degree of muscle spasm (presence of muscle spasm assessment), reaction to palpation (presence of local pain assessment), limitation of range of motion, and evaluation of the patient's reported functional assessment (limitation of activities of daily living assessment). The following 5-point rating scale was used: "1 = worse", "2 = no change", "3 = slight improvement", "4 = moderate improvement", "5 = marked improvement". |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Subject-Rated Global Impression on Days 3, 7, and 14 of Treatment | Days 3, 7, and 14 | Participants assessed their clinical global impression based on relief from local pain, restriction in activities of daily living, restriction of movement and intensity of local pain on a daily basis. The following 5-point rating scale was used: "1 = worse", "2 = no change", "3 = slight improvement", "4 = moderate improvement", "5 = marked improvement". |
| Secondary | Percentage of Responders on Days 3, 7, and 14 of Treatment | Days 3, 7, and 14 | A responder was defined as a participant who had both a rating of either "very good" or "excellent" for the participant's rating of medication helpfulness. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Physician Rated Assessment of Presence of Muscle Spasm on Days 3, 7, and 15 of Treatment | Days 3, 7, and 15 | The investigator assessment based on physical examination, presence of muscle spasm (presence of muscle spasm assessment). The following 5-point rating scale was used: "1 = none", "2 = mild", "3 = moderate", "4 = moderately severe", "5 = severe". |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Physician Rated Assessment of Presence of Local Pain on Days 3, 7, and 15 of Treatment | Days 3, 7, and 15 | The investigator assessed local pain based on physical examination, reaction to palpation (presence of local pain assessment). The following 5-point rating scale was used: "1 = none", "2 = mild", "3 = moderate", "4 = moderately severe", "5 = severe". |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Physician Rated Assessment of Limitation of Range of Motion on Days 3, 7, and 15 of Treatment | Days 3, 7, and 15 | The investigator assessed limitation of range of motion. The following 5-point rating scale was used: "1 = none", "2 = mild", "3 = moderate", "4 = moderately severe", "5 = severe". |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Physician Rated Assessment of Limitation of Activities of Daily Living on Days 3, 7, and 15 of Treatment | Days 3, 7, and 15 | The investigator assessed limitation of activities based on evaluation of the patient's reported functional assessment.
