Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Change From Baseline in the Monthly Mean Numerical Rating Score (NRS) for Endometriosis Pain
Baseline and Weeks 4, 8, and 12

The NRS is an 11-point scale used to measure endometriosis pain and was completed at approximately the same time each day using an electronic diary (e-Diary). Participants were instructed to select a single number between 0 (No pain) and 10 (Worst pain ever) that best described their endometriosis pain at its worst over the past day. The monthly mean NRS is the average of the daily values reported during the 4 weeks prior to each visit.

Secondary Endpoints

Change From Baseline in the Monthly Peak Numerical Rating Score (NRS) for Endometriosis Pain
Baseline and Weeks 4, 8, and 12
Change From Baseline in the Monthly Mean Non-menstrual Pelvic Pain Score
Baseline and Weeks 4, 8, and 12
