Primära resultatmått

Resultatmått
Åtgärdsbeskrivning
Tidsram
Time to First Perceptible Relief (Confirmed by Meaningful Relief)
Tidsram: Baseline (time of wrap application or oral treatment administration) up to 4 hours
"First perceptible relief" defined as the elapsed time from wrap application or oral treatment until the participant depressed the first stopwatch labeled "first perceptible relief" (any pain relieving effect), provided the participant also depressed the second stopwatch labeled "meaningful relief" (meaningful to participant) by the end of the scheduled in-patient evaluation (4 hours / 240 minutes). If the confirmation was not achieved, the participant was censored at the time when the first stopwatch was depressed. Confidence interval (CI) calculated using the method of Simon & Lee.
Baseline (time of wrap application or oral treatment administration) up to 4 hours

Tidsram
Time to Meaningful Relief
Tidsram: Baseline (time of wrap application or oral treatment administration) up to 4 hours
Time to "meaningful relief" defined as elapsed time from start of treatment until participant depressed the second stopwatch indicating "meaningful relief" (meaningful to participant). Participant consider censored if participant did not depress the stopwatch by end of 4-hour in-patient evaluation, or became a treatment failure (rescue or discontinuation) during the time prior to depressing the second stopwatch. Censoring was at time of dropout if participant withdrew for non-efficacy related reasons during the 4-hour in-patient portion of the study. CI calculated using method of Simon & Lee.
Baseline (time of wrap application or oral treatment administration) up to 4 hours
Time Weighted Sum of Pain Relief From 0 Through 8 Hours (TOTPAR 0-8)
Tidsram: Baseline (time of wrap application or oral treatment administration) up to 8 hours
TOTPAR 0-8 sum of pain relief from 0 through 8 hours, weighted by the time duration between the current timepoint and the previous timepoint. Pain relief rated hourly (from baseline) by the participant on a 6-point scale: 0=no relief, 1=a little relief, 2=less than half relief, 3=more than half relief, 4=a lot of relief, 5=complete relief. Total possible score 0 to 40; higher score indicated better relief.
Baseline (time of wrap application or oral treatment administration) up to 8 hours
Time Weighted Sum of Change From Baseline in the Back Stiffness Score Over 8 Hours
Tidsram: Baseline (time of wrap application or oral treatment administration) up to 8 hours
Time weighted sum of change calculated as sum of change from baseline in back stiffness scores from 0 through 8 hours, weighted by time duration between current timepoint and previous timepoint. Based on hourly (from baseline) back stiffness assessment rating from 0 (no muscle stiffness) to 100 (most possible muscle stiffness). Sum of change derived by subtracting score at post-dosing time point from baseline score. Total possible score -800 to 800; higher positive value was indicative of greater improvement.
Baseline (time of wrap application or oral treatment administration) up to 8 hours
Time to Treatment Failure
Tidsram: Baseline (time of wrap application or oral treatment administration) up to 8 hours
Time to treatment failure defined as time from dosing to the time of rescue medication within the scheduled duration of the study (8 hours); or for participants who withdrew from the study due to lack of efficacy without taking rescue medication, the time of the last assessment was considered the time to treatment failure; or if participant did not take rescue medication, or did not discontinue due to lack of efficacy, the time to treatment failure was considered censored at 8 hours (the scheduled duration of the study).
Baseline (time of wrap application or oral treatment administration) up to 8 hours
Individual Time-Point Pain Relief Scores
Tidsram: At 60, 120, 180, 240, 300, 360, 420, and 480 minutes
Pain relief rated hourly (from baseline) by the participant on a 6-point scale: 0=no relief, 1=a little relief, 2=less than half relief, 3=more than half relief, 4=a lot of relief, 5=complete relief.
At 60, 120, 180, 240, 300, 360, 420, and 480 minutes
Change From Baseline in Individual Time-point Back Stiffness Scores
Tidsram: At 60, 120, 180, 240, 300, 360, 420, and 480 minutes
Low back muscle stiffness rated hourly (from baseline) by the participant by placing a line on a visual analog scale (VAS) from 0 millimeters (mm) to 100 mm in length with 0=no muscle stiffness up to 100 (most possible stiffness).

Change From Baseline (Bsl) in Combined Flexibility Score: Extension
Tidsram: Baseline (time of wrap application or oral treatment administration) and 4 hours
Flexibility assessed using Paris Plinth table with maximum extension (as if performing a sit-up) of 20 degrees movement. Angle at Bsl and at 4 hours standardized to 100 for assessment of maximum angle (x degrees), x degrees minus 5, and x degrees plus 5. Flexibility score derived using standardized value and VAS score (participant rating of pain by marking level of pain on 100 mm line 0=no pain up to 100=worst pain). Final derived data for extension flexibility were average of the extension flexibility data on the combined score (range -66 to 552); higher value indicated greater improvement.
Baseline (time of wrap application or oral treatment administration) and 4 hours
Change From Baseline (Bsl) in Overall Combined Flexibility Score: Side-to-Side
Tidsram: Baseline (time of wrap application or oral treatment administration) and 4 hours
Flexibility assessed using Paris Plinth table with maximum side-to-side movement of plus or minus (+/-) 10 degrees for left, and right (L, R), movement. Angle at Bsl and 4 hours standardized to 100 for assessment of maximum angle (x degrees), x degrees - 5, and x degrees + 5. Flexibility score derived using standardized value and VAS score (participant rating of level of pain on 100 mm line 0=no pain to 100=worst pain). Final derived data for overall flexibility was the average of side-to-side (L, R) flexibility data on the combined score (range -81 to 264); higher value=greater improvement.

Angle at Bsl and at 4 hours standardized to 100 for assessment of maximum angle (x degrees), x degrees - 5, and x degrees + 5. Flexibility score derived using standardized value and VAS score (participant rating of level of pain on 100 mm line 0=no pain up to 100=worst pain). Final derived data for overall flexibility were the average of rotation (L, R) flexibility data on combined score (range -80 to 155); higher value=greater improvement.
