Brief summary

The primary objective of the study is to estimate the treatment effect of fremanezumab administered subcutaneously (SC) in reducing pain in adult participants with fibromyalgia (FM). A secondary objective is to evaluate the effect of fremanezumab on other efficacy measures, including pain, quality of life, sleep, fatigue, improvement in health, physical functioning, and mood. Another secondary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of fremanezumab administered SC in adult participants with FM. The total duration of participant participation in the study is planned to be 21 weeks, consisting of a screening period of up to 5 weeks (ranging from 17 to 35 days), and a double-blind treatment period of 16 weeks.

Weekly average of the daily average PI-NRS pain score over the past 24 hours was derived using formula: Summation of non-missing efficacy variable in an analysis week divided by the number of days with non-missing efficacy variable in the analysis week.
Change From Baseline in the Weekly Average of Daily Worst PI-NRS Score Over Past 24 Hours at Week 12Baseline, Week 12The PI-NRS is an 11-point pain intensity numerical rating scale where 0=no pain and 10=worst possible pain; higher scores indication more pain. Weekly average of the daily worst PI-NRS pain score over the past 24 hours was derived using formula: Summation of non-missing efficacy variable in an analysis week divided by the number of days with non-missing efficacy variable in the analysis week. Baseline was defined as the last 14 days before the first dose of study drug.
Change From Baseline in Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Sleep Disturbance Short Form (SF) 8a T-score at Week 12Baseline, Week 12The PROMIS SF8a scale contains 8 items and assesses sleep disturbance over the past 7 days. One item assessing overall sleep quality use a scale of very poor, poor, fair, good, or very good. Other 7 items use a scale of not at all, a little bit, somewhat, quite a bit, or very much. Each item of the PROMIS sleep disturbance SF8a is on 5-point scales (1 to 5), with 1 for the lowest sleep disturbance and 5 for the highest sleep disturbance. The total score ranging from 8 (lowest sleep disturbance) to 40 (highest sleep disturbance) was calculated as the summation of 8 non-missing scores. T-score was calculated from the total raw score using the scoring table (PROMIS-Sleep Disturbance Scoring Manual) with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. Possible range for T-score is 30 to 80, with higher scores indicating greater severity of sleep impairment.
Change From Baseline in the PROMIS Physical Function SF 12a Scale Score at Week 12Baseline, Week 12The PROMIS physical function scale measures self-reported capability. This includes the functioning of one's upper extremities (dexterity), lower extremities (walking or mobility), and central regions (neck, back), as well as instrumental activities of daily living, such as running errands over the past 7 days. A single physical function capability score is obtained from a SF. The PROMIS physical function SF12a scale contains 12 items with 5-point scales (1 \[not at all\] to 5 \[very much\]) for each item with a total score ranging from 12 (poor physical function) to 60 (better physical function). A higher score indicates greater level of physical capability. Total raw score was calculated as the summation of 12 non-missing scores for participants who can walk 25 feet or summation of 6 non-missing scores for participants who cannot walk for 25 feet. The calculated total raw score was converted into scale score using the scoring tables (PROMIS-Physical Function Scoring Manual).
Change From Baseline in the PROMIS Fatigue SF 8a T-Score at Week 12Baseline, Week 12The PROMIS Fatigue SF8a contains 8 items with 5-point scales (1 \[never\] to 5 \[always\]) for each item over the past 7 days. The total raw score ranges from 8 (lowest level of fatigue) to 40 (highest level of fatigue) was calculated as the summation of 8 non-missing scores. T-score was calculated from the total raw score using the scoring table (PROMIS-Fatigue Scoring Manual) with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10; scores higher than 50 indicate greater fatigue compared to the reference population.
Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)Baseline up to Week 16An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. Serious adverse events (SAEs) were defined as death, a life-threatening AE, inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, persistent or significant disability or incapacity, a congenital anomaly or birth defect, or an important medical event that jeopardized participant and required medical intervention to prevent 1 of the outcomes listed in this definition. Any AE occurring on or after the first dose of study drug is considered a treatment-emergent AE (TEAE). A summary of other non-serious AEs and all serious AEs, regardless of causality is located in Reported AE section.

Change From Baseline in the Weekly Average of the Daily Average Pain Intensity-Numerical Rating Scale (PI-NRS) Score Over the Past 24 Hours at Week 12

The PI-NRS is an 11-point pain intensity numerical rating scale where 0=no pain and 10=worst possible pain; higher scores indicating more pain. Weekly average of the daily average PI-NRS pain score over the past 24 hours was derived using formula: Summation of non-missing efficacy variable in an analysis week divided by the number of days with non-missing efficacy variable in the analysis week. Baseline was defined as the last 14 days before the first dose of study drug.

Time frame: Baseline, Week 12

Population: Modified intent-to-treat (mITT) analysis set included all randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of study drug and at least 1 postbaseline entry of daily average pain intensity using the PI-NRS. Here, 'Overall number of participants analyzed' = participants evaluable for this outcome measure.

The PI-NRS is an 11-point pain intensity numerical rating scale where 0=no pain and 10=worst possible pain; higher scores indication more pain. Weekly average of the daily average PI-NRS pain score over the past 24 hours was derived using formula: Summation of non-missing efficacy variable in an analysis week divided by the number of days with non-missing efficacy variable in the analysis week.

Time frame: Week 12

Population: mITT analysis set included all randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of study drug and at least 1 postbaseline entry of daily average pain intensity using the PI-NRS. Here, 'Overall number of participants analyzed' = participants evaluable for this outcome measure.

Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. Serious adverse events (SAEs) were defined as death, a life-threatening AE, inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, persistent or significant disability or incapacity, a congenital anomaly or birth defect, or an important medical event that jeopardized participant and required medical intervention to prevent 1 of the outcomes listed in this definition. Any AE occurring on or after the first dose of study drug is considered a treatment-emergent AE (TEAE). A summary of other non-serious AEs and all serious AEs, regardless of causality is located in Reported AE section.

Responder Rate of the Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) Rating: Number of Participants Who Were Much Improved or Very Much Improved at Week 12

The PGIC scale evaluates all aspects of participants' health and assesses if there has been an improvement or decline in clinical status since the start of the study. Participants recorded responses to the PGIC scale at Week 12. Improvement was recorded on a 7-point scale, with 1 = very much improved, 2 = Much Improved, 3 = Minimally Improved, 4 = No Change, 5 = Minimally Worse, 6 = Much Worse, and 7 = Very Much Worse. Scale much improved or very much improved were considered improved.
