Conditions

Refractory Chronic Cough

Brief summary

This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy of three dose regimens of gefapixant (\[MK-7264\] 7.5 mg, 20 mg, and 50 mg) relative to placebo in reducing awake objective cough frequency. The primary hypothesis for this trial is that at least one dose regimen of gefapixant is superior to placebo with respect to the mean change from baseline in awake cough frequency (on the log scale).

Interventions

DRUGGefapixant

Gefapixant administered as one 7.5 mg, 20 mg, or 50 mg tablet twice daily, depending upon randomization.

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change From Baseline in Awake Objective Cough Frequency After 12 Weeks of Treatment (Day 84)Baseline Visit (Day -1), Day 84Awake Objective Cough Frequency (per hour) was defined as the total number of cough events during the monitoring period (in general, 24-hr interval) while the participant was awake divided by the total duration (in hours) for the monitoring period that the participant was awake. 24 hour sound recordings were made at Baseline (Study Day -1) and at Week 12 (Day 84) using a digital recording device. An independent cough monitoring center documented the time of each cough event over the 24 hour period, as well as the time when the participant went to sleep and the time the participant woke. Least-squares (LS) mean change from baseline (in log scale) with associated standard error (SE) reported for each treatment group. Change from Baseline in Awake Objective Cough Frequency = (Post-Treatment Awake Cough Frequency minus Baseline Awake Cough Frequency).

Change From Baseline in Leicester Cough Questionnaire (LCQ) Total Score After 4 Weeks of Treatment (Day 28)Baseline, Day 28The LCQ instrument is designed to assess the impact of cough on various aspects of a participant's life over the preceding 2 weeks. It consists of 19 items which are divided over 3 domains: Physical (items 1, 2, 3, 9, 10, 11, 14 and 15), Psychological (4, 5, 6, 12, 13, 16, and 17), and Social (7, 8, 18, 19). A 7-point Likert scale is used to rate each item. For each domain, the domain score (range 1-7) is the sum of the individual item scores within the domain divided by the number of items in the domain. The total score is the sum of the three domain scores and ranges from 3-21; a higher score corresponds to a better health status. Baseline LCQ was defined as the LCQ collected at Baseline (Study Day -1). LS mean change from baseline in total LCQ score was reported for each treatment group with associated SE.

Change From Baseline in Awake Objective Cough Frequency After 12 Weeks of Treatment (Day 84)

Awake Objective Cough Frequency (per hour) was defined as the total number of cough events during the monitoring period (in general, 24-hr interval) while the participant was awake divided by the total duration (in hours) for the monitoring period that the participant was awake. 24 hour sound recordings were made at Baseline (Study Day -1) and at Week 12 (Day 84) using a digital recording device. An independent cough monitoring center documented the time of each cough event over the 24 hour period, as well as the time when the participant went to sleep and the time the participant woke. Least-squares (LS) mean change from baseline (in log scale) with associated standard error (SE) reported for each treatment group. Change from Baseline in Awake Objective Cough Frequency = (Post-Treatment Awake Cough Frequency minus Baseline Awake Cough Frequency).

Time frame: Baseline Visit (Day -1), Day 84

Population: All randomized participants who had taken at least 1 dose of study medication and provided at least 1 baseline and at least one post baseline primary endpoint observation during the treatment period.

Change From Baseline in 24-Hour Objective Cough Frequency After 12 Weeks of Treatment (Day 84)

24-hr Objective Cough Frequency was defined as the total number of cough events during the monitoring period divided by the total duration in hours for the monitoring period (generally 24 hours). 24 hour sound recordings were made at Baseline (Study Day -1) and at Week 12 (Day 84) using a digital recording device. An independent cough monitoring center documented the time of each cough event over the 24 hour period, as well as the time when the participant went to sleep and the time the participant woke. LS mean change from baseline (in log scale) with associated SE reported for each treatment group. Change from Baseline in 24-Hour Objective Cough Frequency = (Post-Treatment 24-Hour Cough Frequency minus Baseline 24-Hour Cough Frequency).

Time frame: Baseline (Study Day -1), Day 84

Population: All randomized participants who had taken at least 1 dose of study medication and provided at least 1 baseline and at least one post baseline endpoint observation during the treatment period.

Change From Baseline in Leicester Cough Questionnaire (LCQ) Total Score After 4 Weeks of Treatment (Day 28)

The LCQ instrument is designed to assess the impact of cough on various aspects of a participant's life over the preceding 2 weeks. It consists of 19 items which are divided over 3 domains: Physical (items 1, 2, 3, 9, 10, 11, 14 and 15), Psychological (4, 5, 6, 12, 13, 16, and 17), and Social (7, 8, 18, 19). A 7-point Likert scale is used to rate each item. For each domain, the domain score (range 1-7) is the sum of the individual item scores within the domain divided by the number of items in the domain. The total score is the sum of the three domain scores and ranges from 3-21; a higher score corresponds to a better health status. Baseline LCQ was defined as the LCQ collected at Baseline (Study Day -1). LS mean change from baseline in total LCQ score was reported for each treatment group with associated SE.

Time frame: Baseline, Day 28

Population: All randomized participants who had taken at least 1 dose of study medication and provided at least 1 baseline and at least one post baseline endpoint observation during the treatment period.

The DCS has a score ranging from 0 (best) to 10 (worst). Weekly mean daily score was defined as the average of the daily scores for each week. Baseline was defined as the average DCS score collected during the week prior to Day 1 (Day -7 to Day -1). Participants rated the severity of their cough using the DCS each day. LS mean change from baseline of the weekly mean Daily Cough Score with associated SE was reported for each treatment group.

Time frame: Baseline, Week 12

Population: All randomized participants who had taken at least 1 dose of study medication and provided at least 1 baseline and at least one post baseline endpoint observation during the treatment period.

Percentage of Participants With ≥70%, ≥50%, and ≥30% Change From Baseline in Awake Objective Cough Frequency After 12 Weeks of Treatment (Day 84)

Awake Objective Cough Frequency (per hour) was defined as the total number of cough events during the monitoring period (in general, 24-hr interval) while the participant was awake divided by the total duration (in hours) for the monitoring period that the participant was awake. 24 hour sound recordings were made at Baseline (Study Day -1) and at Week 12 (Day 84) using a digital recording device. An independent cough monitoring center documented the time of each cough event over the 24 hour period, as well as the time when the participant went to sleep and the time the participant woke. The percentage of participants that met responder criteria for ≥70%, ≥50%, and ≥30% change (reduction) from baseline levels in Awake Objective Cough Frequency were reported for each treatment group at Day 84.

Time frame: Baseline (Study Day -1), Day 84

Population: All randomized participants who had taken at least 1 dose of study medication and provided at least 1 baseline and at least one Day 84 endpoint observation during the treatment period.

Taste Questionnaire: Percentage of Participants That Experienced Taste Effect After Taking Medication by Frequency After 12 Weeks of Treatment (Day 84)

The tolerance to taste-related adverse events (AEs) was evaluated at the end of the study (Day 84) and a structured taste questionnaire was administered to participants experiencing a taste-related AE. Participants were asked to indicate the frequency that they experienced the taste effect by answering the question How frequently do you experience the taste effect after taking each dose of medication? The counts and percentages of categorical frequency responses to the individual items were computed for each treatment group.

Time frame: Day 84

Population: All randomized participants who had taken at least 1 dose of study medication, who had experienced a taste-related AE, and who had Day 84 taste questionnaire data available.
