Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Mixed Model of Repeated Measures (MMRM) Change From Baseline in Awake Objective Cough Frequency (Periods 1 & 2 Combined) [Baseline (Day 0), Day 7, and Day 14 (Period 1 and Period 2)]
Cough monitoring was conducted for 24 hours while awake, at pre-dose on Day 0 (baseline), and after administration of the study drug on Day 7 and Day 14 in Periods 1 and 2. The cough frequency is the coughs/hour over each 24-hour period. Awake objective cough frequency was analyzed using Mixed Effect Model for Repeated Measures (MMRM) to evaluate the results of the 2-period cross-over study. Baseline cough frequency was derived from the cough monitoring performed at the beginning of each treatment period while the post-treatment cough frequency was derived from the cough monitoring performed at the end of the dosing period. A negative change indicates a decrease in cough frequency, while a positive change indicates an increase in cough frequency.
- Awake Objective Cough Frequency (Periods 1 & 2 Combined) [Baseline (Day 0), Day 7, and Day 14 (Period 1 and Period 2)]
Cough monitoring was conducted for 24 hours while awake, at pre-dose on Day 0 (baseline), and after administration of the study drug on Day 7 and Day 14 in Periods 1 and 2. The cough frequency is the coughs/hour over each 24-hour period. Awake objective cough frequency was defined as the total number of cough events during the monitoring period the participant was awake divided by the total duration for the monitoring period the participant was awake. Baseline cough frequency was derived from the cough monitoring performed at the beginning of each treatment period while the post-treatment cough frequency was derived from the cough monitoring performed at the end of the dosing period.

Cough monitoring was conducted for 24 hours while awake, at pre-dose on Day 0 (baseline), and after administration of the study drug on Day 7 and Day 14 in Periods 1 and 2. The cough frequency is the coughs/hour over each 24-hour period. Awake objective cough frequency was defined as the total number of cough events during the monitoring period the participant was awake divided by the total duration for the monitoring period the participant was awake. Baseline cough frequency was derived from the cough monitoring performed at the beginning of each treatment period while the post-treatment cough frequency was derived from the cough monitoring performed at the end of the dosing period. A negative value indicates a decrease in cough frequency.
- Percent Change From Baseline of Awake Objective Cough Frequency (Periods 1 & 2 Combined) [Baseline (Day 0), Day 7, and Day 14 (Period 1 and Period 2)]

Outcome Measures
Title | Mixed Model of Repeated Measures (MMRM) Change From Baseline in Awake Objective Cough Frequency (Periods 1 & 2 Combined) |
---|---|
Description | Cough monitoring was conducted for 24 hours while awake, at pre-dose on Day 0 (baseline), and after administration of the study drug on Day 7 and Day 14 in Periods 1 and 2. The cough frequency is the coughs/hour over each 24-hour period. Awake objective cough frequency was analyzed using Mixed Effect Model for Repeated Measures (MMRM) to evaluate the results of the 2-period cross-over study. Baseline cough frequency was derived from the cough monitoring performed at the beginning of each treatment period while the post-treatment cough frequency was derived from the cough monitoring performed at the end of the dosing period. A negative change indicates a decrease in cough frequency, while a positive change indicates an increase in cough frequency. |
Time Frame | Baseline (Day 0), Day 7, and Day 14 (Period 1 and Period 2) |

Analysis Population Description |

Awake objective cough frequency was defined as the total number of cough events during the monitoring period the participant was awake divided by the total duration for the monitoring period the participant was awake. Baseline cough frequency was derived from the cough monitoring performed at the beginning of each treatment period while the post-treatment cough frequency was derived from the cough monitoring performed at the end of the dosing period. |

Percent change from baseline in awake objective cough frequency (0-6 hours after the morning dose) was reported at each dosing interval. Percent change in awake cough frequency = 100 X (post treatment cough frequency - baseline cough frequency) divided by the baseline cough frequency.

Title | MMRM Analysis of Change From Baseline in Cough Quality of Life Questionnaire (CQLQ) (Periods 1 & 2 Combined) |
---|---|
Description | CQLQ is a 28-item scale that has 4 possible responses: 1 = strongly disagree; 2 = disagree; 3 = agree; 4 = strongly agree. Subjects were instructed to circle only 1 response. The total CQLQ score is the sum of the individual item scores; the lowest possible score is 28 and the highest 112. Low CQLQ scores for both total and the 6 domains indicate less impact of cough on health-related quality of life. A negative result indicates a decrease in cough impact on quality of life. CQLQ was analyzed using MMRM to evaluate the results of the 2-period cross-over study. The derived change measured at each dose were the repeated measures. |

Title | MMRM Analysis of Change From Baseline in Total Daily Cough Severity Diary (CSD) Score (Periods 1 & 2 Combined) |
---|---|
Description | The daily CSD Score is calculated using the daily CSD instrument, a 7-item, disease specific, patient-reported outcome measure with a recall period of "today" (the current day). The measure evaluates frequency of cough (3 items); intensity of cough (2 items); and sleep disruption due to cough (2 items). Each of these 7 items is rated on an 11-point scale, ranging from 0 (best) to 10 (worst), with higher scores indicating greater severity. The total daily CSD score is the sum of these 7 item scores (Min=0, Max=70). Baseline CSD score = average of CSD scores at screening and baseline. A negative result indicates a decrease in cough severity, while a positive result indicates an increase in cough severity. CSD was analyzed using MMRM to evaluate the results of the 2-period cross-over study. The derived change measured at each dose were the repeated measures. |

Description | CQLQ is a 28-item scale that has 4 possible responses: 1 = strongly disagree; 2 = disagree; 3 = agree; 4 = strongly agree. Subjects were instructed to circle only 1 response. The total CQLQ score is the sum of the individual item scores; the lowest possible score is 28 and the highest 112. Low CQLQ scores for both total and the 6 domains indicate less impact of cough on health-related quality of life. Baseline cough CQLQ was evaluated based on the participant's randomized group (gefapixant or placebo). |

Title | Pre-dose Baseline Cough Severity CSD (Periods 1 & 2 Combined) |
---|---|
Description | The daily CSD Score is calculated using the daily CSD instrument, a 7-item, disease specific, patient-reported outcome measure with a recall period of "today" (the current day). The measure evaluates frequency of cough (3 items); intensity of cough (2 items); and sleep disruption due to cough (2 items). Each of these 7 items is rated on an 11-point scale, ranging from 0 (best) to 10 (worst), with higher scores indicating greater severity. The total daily CSD score is the sum of these 7 item scores (Min=0, Max=70). Baseline CSD score = average of CSD scores at screening and baseline. |
