Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage of Participants Who Were Composite Responders Based on Improvements From Baseline in Daily Worst Abdominal Pain And Daily Stool Consistency Scores

    Percentage of primary composite responders is defined as the percentage of participants who meet both of the following daily composite criteria for at least 50% of the days with diary entry: 1)Worst Abdominal Pain (WAP) score improved by ≥40% compared to Baseline. The participant records their WAP score in the past 24 hours each day in a daily patient diary where: 0=no pain to 10=worst imaginable pain. 2) Bristol Stool Score (BSS) \<5; or the absence of a bowel movement if accompanied by ≥40% improvement in WAP compared to Baseline. The participant records their stool consistency each day in a daily patient diary using the BSS on a scale from 1 (hard stool) to 7 (watery stool).

    Baseline, Weeks 1 to 12

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Percentage of Stool Consistency Responders

    Weeks 1 to 12 and 4-week intervals (Weeks 1 to 4, Weeks 5 to 8 and Weeks 9 to 12)

  • Percentage of Monthly Composite Responders

    Weeks 1 to 4, 5 to 8, and 9 to 12
