Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

The Capsaicin-Induced Dermal Blood Flow (DBF)
Baseline (pre-capsaicin) and on assessment day over approximately one hour, after at least a 4 month wash out from treatment in study NCT02163993

Change from pre-capsaicin DBF adjusting for vehicle at 30 minutes is reported. The capsaicin induced dermal blood flow (DBF) was measured by laser Doppler imaging (LDI).

Plasma Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (CGRP) Levels
On assessment day over approximately one hour, after at least a 4 month wash out from treatment in study NCT02163993

The mean Plasma Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide levels were reported.
