Time frame: Randomization to Week 19
The time to loss of therapeutic response (LTR) is the time to loss of pain response (<30% pain response relative to the single-blind (SB) baseline mean pain) or withdrawal due to lack of efficacy or adverse events (in the double blind phase).
Time frame: Randomization to Week 19
Participants who did not maintain at least 30% pain response during the DB phase relative to baseline or were discontinued during DB due to lack of efficacy or an adverse event were considered to have a loss of therapeutic response.

The tiredness assessment in the daily interactive voice response system (IVRS) diary consists of an 11-point NRS ranging from zero (not tired) to 10 (extremely tired). Participants rate their tiredness due to fibromyalgia during the past 24 hours by choosing the appropriate number between 0 (not tired) and 10 (extremely tired).

The SSQ is designed to capture subjective behavior in participants with disrupted sleep. Participants report latency (how long it took them to fall asleep), how many hours they slept, the number of times they woke up, the total wake time after sleep onset, and then rate the quality of their sleep (NRS) for the previous night.

Participants report latency (how long it took them to fall asleep), how many hours they slept, the number of times they woke up, the total wake time after sleep onset, and then rate the quality of their sleep (NRS) for the previous night. Participants rated quality of sleep during the past night by selecting a number between 0 (very poor) and 10 (excellent). Mean sleep quality was calculated as the mean of the last seven days, the potential range of responses at each week was therefore 0 (very poor) -10 (excellent), where higher scores indicated better quality of sleep.

The MOS-SS is a validated self-administered questionnaire consisting of 12 items that assess key constructs of sleep. Instrument scoring yields 7 subscales (sleep disturbance, snoring, awaken short of breath or with a headache, quantity of sleep, optimal sleep, sleep adequacy, and somnolence) and two overall sleep problems indices assessing sleep over the past week. Score range for Sleep Disturbance (SD), sleep adequacy (SA), snoring, somnolence, awakening short of breath/headache was 0-100, where higher score=greater SD; greater SA; greater snoring; greater somnolence; greater shortness of breath/headache respectively. Quantity of Sleep (range-0 to 24 hours; higher scores/hours=greater quantity of sleep). Sleep Problem Index I and II: Score Range=0 to 100; higher scores =greater sleep problems. Optimal Sleep (assessed as yes or no), 'Yes' =optimal sleep (average 7-8 hours/night); 'No' =not optimal sleep.

HADS: participant rated questionnaire with 2 subscales. HADS-A assesses state of generalized anxiety (anxious mood, restlessness, anxious thoughts, panic attacks); HADS-D assesses state of lost interest and diminished pleasure response (lowering of hedonic tone). Each subscale comprised of 7 items with range 0 (no presence of anxiety or depression) to 3 (severe feeling of anxiety or depression). Total score 0 to 21 for each subscale; higher score indicates greater severity of anxiety and depression symptoms.

Actigraphy was assessed with an accelerometer that was worn on the wrist. The accelerometer was programmed to record movements. This information was used to calculate several endpoints reflecting daytime activity, and sleep quality and duration. Total daytime activity = total activity "counts" during the day.

Actigraphy was assessed with an accelerometer that was worn on the wrist. The accelerometer was programmed to record movements. This information was used to calculate several endpoints reflecting daytime activity, and sleep quality and duration. Sleep fragmentation index = a measure of sleep relatedness. Sleep fragmentation index calculated from analysis of the periods that participant was not moving (immobile bouts). It is number of immobile bouts that were exactly 1 minute long divided by total number of immobile bouts. Value ranges from 0-100 percent, with low number representing more restful sleep.

C-CASA was used to categorize and summarize results from the Sheehan Suicidality Tracking Scale (S-STS) and the Columbia Suicidality Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS). S-STS was an 8-item prospective rating scale that tracked treatment-emergent suicidal ideation and behaviors. Items 1a, 2 to 6, 7a, 8 were scored on a 5-point Likert scale (ranges 0 [not at all] to 4 [extremely]). Items 1, 1b, and 7 required yes or no responses. S-STS total score range 0-30. Lower score=reduced suicidal tendency. C-SSRS was a participant rated questionnaire to assess suicidal ideation, suicidal behavior, actual attempts (yes or no responses), and intensity of ideation (rated 1=low severity to 5=high severity). Responses on S-STS or C-SSRS were mapped to C-CASA categories as: Completed suicide; suicide attempt; preparatory acts; suicide ideation; self-injurious behavior, intent unknown; not enough information; self-injurious behavior, no suicide intent; other, no deliberate self harm.
