ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryAberrant Behavior Checklist-Community Fragile X Factor Structure (ABC-C FXS) Social Avoidance Subscale - Full Analysis SetChange from Baseline to end of treatment (Week 12)
The Aberrant Behavior Checklist-Community is a standard parent/caregiver reported behavioral outcome measure for use in developmental disability clinical trials. The range for score for the subscale is from 0 to 12, and a higher value indicates a worse outcome.
PrimaryAberrant Behavior Checklist-Community Fragile X Factor Structure (ABC-C FXS) Social Avoidance Subscale - Ad Hoc AnalysisChange from baseline to end of treatment (Week 12)
The Aberrant Behavior Checklist-Community is a standard parent/caregiver reported behavioral outcome measure for use in developmental disability clinical trials. The range for score for the subscale is from 0 and 12, and the higher score means a worse outcome.
SecondaryAberrant Behavior Checklist-Community Fragile X Factor Structure (ABC-C FXS) Irritability Subscale - Full Analysis SetChange from baseline to end of treatment (Week 12)
The Aberrant Behavior Checklist-Community is a standard parent/caregiver reported behavioral outcome measure for use in developmental disability clinical trials. The range for score for the subscale is between 0 and 54, and the higher score means a worse outcome.
SecondaryAberrant Behavior Checklist-Community, Fragile X Factor Structure (ABC-C FXS) Socially Unresponsive/Lethargic Subscale - Full Analysis SetChange from baseline to end of treatment (Week 12)
The Aberrant Behavior Checklist-Community is a standard parent/caregiver reported behavioral outcome measure for use in developmental disability clinical trials. The range for score for the subscale is from 0 and 39, and a higher mean indicates a worse outcome.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Any Improvement - Clinical Global Impressions- Improvement (CGI-I) - Full Analysis SetChange in CGI-I at end of treatment (Week 12)
The Clinical Global Impressions- Improvement global improvement item is a 7-point Likert scale designed to measure behavioral symptomatic change at a specific time compared to baseline. CGI-I is a standard global measure of potential change with treatment in placebo-controlled pharmacotherapy trials in developmental disabilities. The score ranges form 1-very much improved to 7-very much worse. The percentage of patients with any improvement (minimally, much, very much improved) was assessed.
SecondaryAberrant Behavior Checklist-Community Fragile X Factor Structure (ABC-C FXS) Irritability Subscale - Ad Hoc AnalysisChange from baseline in ABC-C to end of treatment (Week 12)
The Aberrant Behavior Checklist-Community is a standard parent/caregiver reported behavioral outcome measure for use in developmental disability clinical trials. The range for score for the subscale is between 0 and 54, and the higher score means a worse outcome.
