Brief Summary

The primary purpose of this study is to determine if duloxetine reduces pain severity in patients with fibromyalgia.

Conditions

Fibromyalgia

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• To assess efficacy of duloxetine 60 mg twice daily (BID) compared with placebo on reduction of pain severity, measured by average pain item of Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) in patients with ACR-defined primary fibromyalgia, with or without major depression.

Secondary Outcomes (10)

• To evaluate the efficacy of duloxetine 60 mg once daily (QD) compared with placebo during a 12-week, double-blind, acute therapy phase on the reduction of pain severity as measured by the average pain item of the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI).

• To evaluate efficacy of duloxetine 60 mg QD and 60 mg BID vs. placebo during a 12-week, double-blind, acute therapy phase on the improvement of the area under the curve of pain relief as derived from BPI average pain score

• To evaluate efficacy of duloxetine 60 mg QD and 60 mg BID vs. placebo during a 12-week, double-blind, acute therapy phase on the improvement of Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ) total score

• To evaluate efficacy of duloxetine 60 mg QD and 60 mg BID vs. placebo during a 12-week, double-blind, acute therapy phase on improvement of Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) severity (worst pain, least pain, pain right now) and interference scores

• To evaluate efficacy of duloxetine 60 mg QD and 60 mg BID vs. placebo during a 12-week, double-blind, acute therapy phase on the improvement of Tender point pain thresholds: mean thresholds and number of points with a low threshold
