Brief summary

This study will explore the safety and effectiveness of different doses of AGN 203818 in treating the pain associated with fibromyalgia syndrome. The study is being conducted in 2 parts. Part A enrolled 211 pts dosed with either 3, 20, 60 mg BID AGN 203818 or placebo over 4 week treatment duration. Part B will enroll 440 pts and dose with either 20, 100, 160 mg BID AGN 203818 or placebo over 12 week treatment duration.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change From Baseline in Mean Daily-Average-Pain Score at Week 4Baseline, Week 4Change from Baseline in mean daily-average-pain score at week 4. Patients recorded their daily average pain on a 11-point scale (where 0 equals no pain and 10 equals worst pain imaginable) using a diary during the 4-week treatment period. A negative number change from baseline represents a decrease in average pain (improvement).

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change From Baseline in the Short Form Brief Pain Inventory (SF-BPI) Average Pain Score at Week 4Baseline, Week 4Change from baseline in the SF-BPI average pain question score at week 4. The SF-BPI is a patient-rated questionnaire that assesses certain aspects of pain including location, intensity, and interference with certain daily activities. The average pain question was rated on an 11-point scale (where 0=no pain and 10=worst pain imaginable). A negative number change from baseline indicates a reduction in average pain.

The FIQ is a disease-specific questionnaire consisting of 10 questions and visual analog scales regarding functional disability, pain intensity, sleep function, stiffness, anxiety, depression, and overall sense of wellbeing. Each question is scored from 0 to 10 with 0 = no impairment (best) and 10 indicates maximum impairment (worst), for a minimum possible score (best) of 0 and a maximum possible (worst) total score of 100. A negative number change from baseline indicates improvement.

The PGIC consists of a self-evaluation by the patient of the overall change of their fibromyalgia syndrome since the beginning of the study, rated on a 7-point scale (score of 1-3 = very much improved to minimally improved; 4= no change; 5-7 = minimally worse to very much worse). Results are presented for the percentage of patients reporting each status: improved= score of 1-3; no change=score of 4; and worse=score of 5-7.
