Study Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate efficacy of hydrocodone extended-release (ER) tablets compared with placebo in alleviating moderate to severe pain in patients with osteoarthritis or low back pain as assessed by the weekly Average Pain Intensity (API) at week 12.

Primary Outcome

The primary efficacy variable was the change from baseline to week 12 in the wAPI. The API over the previous 24 hours, based on the 11-point Numerical Rating Scale (NRS 11), was collected daily by e-diary. The Week 12 wAPI scores from the previous 7 days were calculated for each study visit and averaged. The baseline wAPI score was calculated by averaging API scores from 3 to 12 days when the successful dose of hydrocodone extended release was confirmed at the end of the open label titration per
