Trial Outcomes & Findings for Efficacy and Safety Study of CB-5945 for the Treatment of Opioid-Induced Constipation (NCT NCT01901302)

NCT ID: NCT01901302

Last Updated: 2018-11-15

Results Overview

A Spontaneous Bowel Movement (SBM) Weekly Responder (calculated for each week of the 12-week double-blind treatment period) is a participant who has ≥ 3 SBMs for the week and an increase from baseline of ≥1 SBM for the specified week, based on at least 4 Available Data Days (ADDs) during the week. A Complete SBM (CSBM) Weekly Responder is a participant who has ≥ 3 CSBMs for the specified week and an increase from baseline of ≥1 CSBM for the week. For the definition of the primary efficacy endpoint, Overall SBM Responder is a participant who is a Weekly SBM Responder for 9 of the 12 weeks of the double-blind treatment period, including 3 of the last 4 weeks (Weeks 9, 10, 11 and 12).

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, 12 weeks

Population: Zero participants were analyzed, and no data was collected for this measure. Due to lack of enrollment, the study was terminated early.

The CORGISS is designed to assess GI symptoms related to opioid use in patients with chronic non-cancer pain. The CORGISS asks participants to rate the severity of GI symptoms over the previous 24 hours, with answers ranging from 0 ("did not experience") to 4 ("very severe").
