Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Sum of Sore Throat Pain Intensity Difference (SPID2) on Swallowing at 2 Hours Post-First Dose [2 hours Post-First Dose]

    Based on the Pain Intensity scores measured on a Visual Analogue Scale (PI-VAS: 0mm=no pain,100mm=worst possible pain), assessed by the subjects, the SPID2 is the area under the curve (AUC) over the 2-hour period post-first dose of the Pain Intensity Difference (PID) scores using the trapezoidal rule.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Sore Throat Pain Intensity Difference (PID) Within 6 Hours Post-First Dose [Within First 6 hours Post-First Dose]

    Pain intensity (PI) on Swallowing as Measured by PI-VAS scale: 0mm=no pain, 100mm=worst possible pain. Sore throat PID score was obtained by subtracting the PI at each time point from the Baseline PI score. Increase in scores indicated a lessening of subjects' pain compared to baseline scores; higher scores indicated a greater reduction in pain.

  2. Sore Throat Pain Intensity Difference (PID) From 7 to 24 Hours Post-First Dose [7 to 24 hours]

    Pain intensity (PI) on Swallowing as Measured by PI-VAS scale: 0mm=no pain, 100mm=worst possible pain. PID score was obtained by subtracting the PI at each time point from the Baseline PI score. An increase in scores indicated a lessening of subjects' pain as compared to Baseline scores, thus, higher scores indicated a greater reduction in pain.

  3. Sum of Sore Throat Pain Intensity Difference (SPID) Within 6 Hours Post-First Dose [up to 6 hours]

    The sum of pain intensity differences (SPID) was calculated as the AUC of the Pain Intensity Difference (PID) scores. The PID [based on PI-VAS scale: 0mm=no pain, 100mm=worst possible pain] was calculated as the difference between the pain intensity at the time and at baseline.

  4. Sum of Sore Throat Pain Intensity Difference (SPID) From 7 to 24 Hours Post-First Dose [7 to 24 hours]

    The sum of pain intensity differences (SPID) was calculated as the AUC of the Pain Intensity Difference (PID) scores. The PID [based on PI-VAS scale: 0mm=no pain, 100mm=worst possible pain] was calculated as the difference between the pain intensity at the time and at baseline.

  5. Sore Throat Relief Rating Scale (STRRS) Within 6 Hours Post-First Dose [within the first 6 hours]

    STRRS score (scale: 0 no relief to 6 complete relief); a higher pain score indicated a greater reduction in pain.

  6. Sore Throat Relief Rating Scale (STRRS) From 7 to 24 Hours Post-First Dose [7 to 24 hours]

    STRRS score (scale: 0 no relief to 6 complete relief); a higher score indicated a greater reduction in pain.

  8. Sore Throat Relief Rating Scale (STRRS) - 'Moderate Relief' at 12 Hours Post-First Dose [12 hours]

    Subjects Achieving at Least 'Moderate Relief' as Measured by STRRS (range: 0=no relief to 6=complete relief); Moderate relief is defined as STRRS = 3).

  9. Time to Perceptible Pain Relief [Within 2 Hours Post-First Dose]

    Defined as time (measured by stopwatch) when subject began to feel any pain relieving effect from the drug

  10. Time to Meaningful Pain Relief [Within 2 Hours Post-First Dose]

    The time (measured by stopwatch) when the subject felt their pain relief was meaningful to them was not estimable thus the number of subjects experiencing meaningful pain relief within 2 hours of first dose is reported

  11. Time to Onset of Analgesia [Within 2 Hours Post-First Dose]

    Equal to time of perceptible pain relief when both perceptible pain relief and meaningful pain relief were experienced- the median time was not estimable thus the number of subjects with onset of analgesia within 2 hours of first dose is reported

  12. Patient's Global Evaluation of Study Medication at 6 Hours Post-First Dose [6 Hours Post-First Dose]

    Subject assessment of overall impression of study drug on 4 point scale from 1 (poor) to 4 (excellent)

  13. Patient's Global Evaluation of Study Medication at 12 and 24 Hours Post-First Dose [12 and 24 hours Post-First Dose]

3. Secondary Outcome
Title Sore Throat Pain Intensity Difference (PID) From 7 to 24 Hours Post-First Dose
Description Pain intensity (PI) on Swallowing as Measured by PI-VAS scale: 0mm=no pain, 100mm=worst possible pain. PID score was obtained by subtracting the PI at each time point from the Baseline PI score. An increase in scores indicated a lessening of subjects' pain as compared to Baseline scores, thus, higher scores indicated a greater reduction in pain.
Time Frame 7 to 24 hours

24. Other Pre-specified Outcome
Title Sum of Difficulty Swallowing Difference as Measured by Difficulty Swallowing Scale (DSS) From 7 to 24 Hours Post-First Dose
Description The sum of pain intensity differences (SPID) was calculated as the AUC of the Pain Intensity Difference (PID) scores. The Difficulty Swallowing PID was calculated as the difference between the pain intensity (DSS range: 0mm=not difficult, 100mm=very difficult) at the time and at baseline.
Time Frame 7 to 24 hours Post-First Dose

Outcome Measure Data
