Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Percentage of Participants Who Were Composite Responders Based on Improvements From Baseline in Daily Worst Abdominal Pain And Daily Stool Consistency Scores | Up to 12 Weeks | Composite responders were defined as a participant who met the daily response criteria for at least 50% of the days with diary entries during the interval of interest. A participant must had met both of the following criteria on a given day to be a daily responder: 1) Daily pain response: worst abdominal pain scores in the past 24 hours improved by ≥30% compared to baseline (average of daily worst abdominal pain the week prior to randomization). 2) Daily stool consistency response: Bristol Stool Scale (BSS) score \<5 (ie, score of 1, 2, 3, or 4) or the absence of a bowel movement if accompanied by ≥30% improvement in worst abdominal pain compared to baseline pain. Bristol stool scale was defined as 7-point Scale in which a score of 1 = separate hard lumps, 2 = sausage shaped but lumpy, 3 = sausage-like with cracks on the surface, 4 = sausage-like but smooth and soft, 5 = soft blobs with clear cut edges, 6 = fluffy pieces with ragged edges, and 7 = watery with no solid pieces. |

BSS was defined as 7-point Scale in which score of 1= separate hard lumps, 2= sausage shaped but lumpy, 3= sausage-like with cracks on the surface, 4= sausage-like but smooth and soft, 5= soft blobs with clear cut edges, 6= fluffy pieces with ragged edges, and 7= watery with no solid pieces.

IBS-d Global Symptom Scale was a 5 point scale, score ranging from 0 to 4. 0= no symptoms, 1= mild symptoms, 2= moderate symptoms, 3= severe symptoms and 4 = very severe symptoms. A participant must have had a minimum of 20 days of diary entries over any 4-week interval, a minimum of 60 days of diary entries over the 12-week interval, and a minimum of 110 days of diary entries over the 26-week interval to be a responder. |

The IBS-QoL consists of 34 items each with a 5-point response scale, where 1 generally represents better responses on items and 5 represents worse responses. The individual responses to the answered items were summed and standardized for a total score and then transformed to a 0- to 100-point (0= worst; 100=better) scale for ease of interpretation. |

A negative change from Baseline indicates the discomfort decreased. |

Composite responders were defined as a participant who met the daily response criteria for at least 50% of the days with diary entries during the interval of interest. A participant must had met both of the following criteria on a given day to be a daily responder: 1) Daily pain response: worst abdominal pain scores in the past 24 hours improved by ≥30% compared to baseline (average of daily worst abdominal pain the week prior to randomization). 2) Daily stool consistency response: Bristol Stool Scale (BSS) score \<5 (ie, score of 1, 2, 3, or 4) or the absence of a bowel movement if accompanied by ≥30% improvement in worst abdominal pain compared to baseline pain. Bristol stool scale was defined as 7-point Scale in which a score of 1 = separate hard lumps, 2 = sausage shaped but lumpy, 3 = sausage-like with cracks on the surface, 4 = sausage-like but smooth and soft, 5 = soft blobs with clear cut edges, 6 = fluffy pieces with ragged edges, and 7 = watery with no solid pieces.

Percentage of Participants Who Were Responders to the Irritable Bowel Syndrome Quality of Life Measure (IBS-QoL) Scale
IBS-QoL responders were defined as participants who achieved at least a 14-point improvement in IBS-QoL total score from baseline to the applicable visit. The IBS-QoL consists of 34 items each with a 5-point response scale, where 1 generally represents better responses on items and 5 represents worse responses. The individual responses to the answered items were summed and standardized for a total score and then transformed to a 0- to 100-point (0= worst; 100=better) scale for ease of interpretation.

Percentage of Participants With Irritable Bowel Syndrome - Adequate Relief (IBS-AR) Scale
Adequate relief of IBS symptoms was assessed once weekly by participants answering the IBS-AR item in the electronic diary. IBS-AR responders were defined as participants with a weekly response of Yes to adequate relief of their IBS symptoms for at least 50% of the total weeks during the interval. A participant must have had a positive response on ≥6 weeks for the 12-week interval and ≥13 weeks for the 26-week interval, regardless of diary compliance, to be a responder.
Time frame: 12-week interval (Weeks 1-12) and 26-week interval (Weeks 1-26)
Population: ITT analysis set included all participants who were randomized into a treatment group and presents data for participants according to their randomization assignment.
