Trial Outcomes & Findings for Study to Evaluate Solesta for Treatment of Fecal Incontinence (NCT NCT01110681)

NCT ID: NCT01110681

Last Updated: 2022-08-26

Results Overview

Responder rate in number of fecal incontinence episodes change from baseline at 12 month. Defined as responders at 12 month after treatment. A responder was defined as 50% or more reduction in the number of fecal incontinence episodes (28-day diary data)of solid or loose stool, compared to baseline.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 12 months after last treatment compared to baseline

Population: Intention to treat (all subjects who were treated with study product). Primary analysis were based on observed data. A Last-Observation-Carried -Forward (LOCF) technique was also used where the last performed efficacy assessment was carried forward to impute any subsequent missing values.

Cleveland Clinic Florida Incontinence Score (CCFIS) is a composite score of incontinence severity that measures the frequencies of gas leakage, leakage of solid or loose stool, use of protective pads and lifestyle alterations. The score ranges from 0 (representing complete continence)to 20 (representing complete incontinence). Change from baseline.

Fecal Incontinence Quality of Life is a disease specific questionnaire composed of a total of 29 questions questions divided into four domains: Lifestyle, Coping/Behavior, Depression/Self perception, and Embarrassment. The FIQL mean score ranges from 1 to 4 for the Lifestyle, Coping/Behavior and Embarrassment domains, and from 1 to 4.429 for Depression/Self-Perception domain. Mean score were calculated for each of the four domains. The more the subject is affected by fecal incontinence the lower value. Change from baseline.
