Study Summary

The main objective of the trial is to evaluate the efficacy of fasinumab compared to placebo as measured by the change from baseline in the average daily Low Back Pain Intensity (LBPI) Numerical Rating Scale (NRS). Secondary objectives of the study are to evaluate the efficacy of fasinumab compared to placebo as measured by: * Change from baseline in the Roland Morris disability questionnaire (RMDQ) total score * Change from baseline in the Patient Global Assessment (PGA) of Low Back Pain (LBP) score * Change from baseline in the average daily LBPI NRS score

Primary Outcome

Average daily low back pain (LBP) was assessed on an 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS) and was defined as the average of the non-missing daily LBPI NRS scores for the 7 days before and including nominal visit. Participants described their average low back pain during the past 24 hours on a scale ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain), where higher scores indicate higher pain.
