Tanezumab in Osteoarthritis Of The Hip

WOMAC: Self-administered, disease-specific questionnaire which assesses clinically important, participant-relevant symptoms for pain, stiffness and physical function in participants with osteoarthritis. WOMAC pain subscale is a 5-item questionnaire used to assess the amount of pain experienced due to osteoarthritis in hip joint during past 48 hours. It was calculated as mean of the scores from 5 individual questions scored on a numerical rating scale (NRS) of 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain), where higher scores indicated higher pain. Total score range for WOMAC pain subscale score is 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain), where higher scores indicated higher pain.

WOMAC: Self-administered, disease-specific questionnaire which assesses clinically important, participant-relevant symptoms for pain, stiffness and physical function in participants with osteoarthritis. WOMAC physical function subscale is a 17-item questionnaire used to assess the degree of difficulty experienced due to osteoarthritis in hip joint during past 48 hours. It is calculated as mean of the scores from 17 individual questions scored on a NRS of 0 to 10, where higher scores indicate worse function. Total score range for WOMAC physical function subscale score is 0 to 10, where higher scores indicate worse function. Physical function refers to participant's ability to move around and perform usual activities of daily living.

Participants answered: "Considering all the ways your osteoarthritis in your hip joint affects you, how are you doing today?", participants responded by using a 5-point scale where 1 = very good (no symptom and limitation of normal activities) and 5 = very poor (very severe symptoms and inability to carry out normal activities), where lower scores indicates better condition.

A participant was considered as an OMERACT-OARSI responder if at least one of the following criteria were met: Improvement in WOMAC pain or physical function subscale from baseline to week of interest was greater than or equal to (>=) 50 percent (%)and absolute change of >=2 units from baseline at the week of interest, or at least 2 of the following 3 being true: >=20% improvement from baseline and absolute change from baseline of >=1 unit at the week of interest in 1) WOMAC pain subscale, 2) WOMAC physical function subscale, 3) PGA of osteoarthritis. Score range for PGA: 1 = very good to 5 = very poor, where higher scores=more affected). WOMAC pain, physical function subscales assess amount of pain/difficulty experienced (score: 0 [no pain] to 10 [worst possible pain], higher score=higher pain/difficulty).

WOMAC stiffness subscale is a 2-item questionnaire used to assess the amount of stiffness experienced due to osteoarthritis in hip joint during past 48 hours. It is calculated as mean of the scores from 2 individual questions each scored on numerical rating scale of 0 (minimum stiffness) to 10 (maximum stiffness), giving an overall possible mean score range of 0 (minimum stiffness) to 10 (maximum stiffness). Higher scores indicate higher stiffness. Stiffness is defined as a sensation of decreased ease in movement of hip joint.

WOMAC: Self-administered, disease-specific questionnaire which assesses clinically important, participant-relevant symptoms for pain, stiffness and physical function in participants with osteoarthritis.

The SF-36 health survey was a self-administered questionnaire that measures each of the following 8 health domains: domain 1= general health, domain 2= physical function, domain 3= role physical, domain 4= bodily pain, domain 5= vitality, domain 6= social function, domain 7= role emotional, domain 8= mental health. Total score for each domain are scaled 0 (minimum) to 100 (maximum), where higher score indicates highest level of functioning.

Total score for each domain are scaled 0 (minimum) to 100 (maximum), where higher score indicates highest level of functioning. These 8 domains were also summarized as summary scores: mental component aggregate (MCA) and physical component aggregate (PCA). Total score range for the each summary scores =0 to 100, where higher scores represented higher level of functioning. Higher summary scores indicated a better health related quality of life.

Median time to discontinuation due to lack of efficacy was estimated using Kaplan-Meier method.

An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. An SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Treatment-emergent are events between first dose of study drug and up to Week 32 that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pretreatment state. Adverse events included both serious and all non-serious adverse events.

The NIS is a standardized instrument used to evaluate participant for signs of peripheral neuropathy. Neurologic examination assessed strength of groups of muscles of the head and neck, upper limbs and lower limbs, deep tendon reflexes and sensation (tactile, vibration, joint position sense and pin prick) of index fingers and great toes in order to complete the NIS. The NIS is the sum of scores of over all 37 items (24 scored 0-4; 13 scored 0-2), made separately for left and right sides, giving a possible overall score range of 0 (no impairment) to 122 (severe impairment). NIS Total score range (total of both left and right sides) was 0 (no impairment) to 244 (severe impairment), where higher scores indicated increased impairment.
