Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. % of subjects with treatment response [12 weeks]

    Treatment response is defined as subjects who are weekly responders for at least 9 out of 12 weeks, with at least 3 of these weeks occurring in the last 4 weeks of treatment. A weekly responder is a subject who has ≥ 3 spontaneous bowel movements (SBMs) and an increase from baseline of > 1 SBM in that week.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. % of subjects with treatment emergent adverse events [12 weeks]
