Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs) or Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) |
An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. An SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Treatment-emergent are events between first dose of study drug and up to 28 days after last dose (up to Week 16) that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pretreatment state. |

Change From Baseline in Daily Average Low Back Pain Intensity (LBPI) Score at Week 6 |
Daily average low back pain was assessed on an 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS). Participants described their average low back pain during the past 24 hours on a scale ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). Baseline value was calculated as mean of the scores over 5-day prior to randomization (initial pain assessment period). Post-baseline weekly scores were calculated based on the mean of the scores over the 7 days prior to and including the day at the end of the corresponding week. |

Daily average low back pain was assessed on an 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS). Participants described their average low back pain during the past 24 hours on a scale ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain), with lower scores indicating less pain. Baseline value was calculated as mean of the scores over 5-day prior to randomization (initial pain assessment period).

Daily average low back pain was assessed on an 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS). Participants described their average low back pain during the past 24 hours on a scale ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain), with lower scores indicating less pain. Baseline value was calculated as mean of the scores over 5-day prior to randomization (initial pain assessment period). Post-baseline weekly scores were calculated based on the mean of the scores over the 7 days prior to and including the day at the end of the corresponding week. Change from baseline was calculated as the average of each specified week interval (Week 1 to 4, 1 to 8, 1 to 12, 5 to 8, 5 to 12) values minus the baseline value. |

Change From Baseline in Modified Brief Pain Inventory-short Form (mBPI-sf) Scores for Worst Pain and Average Pain at Week 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 12 |
The mBPI-sf was a self-administered questionnaire used to assess the severity of pain and the impact of pain on daily functions during the 24-hour period prior to evaluation. It consisted of 5 questions. Questions (Q) 1-4 assessed the magnitude of pain (Q1 for worst pain, Q2 for least pain, Q3 for average pain, Q4 for pain right now) on an 11-point NRS ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (pain as bad as you can imagine), with lower scores indicating less pain. Question 5 consisted of 7 sub-items (A to G; general activity, mood, walking ability, normal work, relations with other people, sleep, enjoyment of life) which measured the level of interference of pain on daily functions. Each sub-item was assessed on an 11-point NRS ranging from 0 (does not interfere) to 10 (completely interferes). Results are reported for worst and average pain score, each ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (pain as bad as you can imagine), with lower scores indicating less pain. |

Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire: low back pain-specific, participant administered questionnaire that assessed how well participants with low back pain were able to function with regard to daily activities. The questionnaire consisted of 24 statements and the participants were instructed to put a mark next to each appropriate statement if it described their pain on the day of assessment. The number of statements marked were added up by the clinician. Total RMDQ score was calculated as the sum of number of statements checked. Total possible score ranged from 0 to 24, with higher scores indicated greater disability. |

The mBPI-sf was a self-administered questionnaire used to assess the severity of pain and the impact of pain on daily functions during the 24-hour period prior to evaluation. It consisted of 5 questions. Questions 1 to 4 assessed the magnitude of pain (worst, least, average, right now) on an 11-point NRS ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (pain as bad as you can imagine). Question 5 consisted of 7 sub-items (general activity [GA], mood, walking ability [WA], normal work [NW], relations with other people, sleep, enjoyment of life) which measured the level of interference of pain on daily functions. Each sub-item was assessed on an 11-point NRS ranging from 0 (did not interfere) to 10 (completely interfere). The response from 7 sub-items of question 5 were averaged to obtain pain interference composite score (CS), range: 0 to 10 (higher score=more interference). |
