Notes: Data are adjusted mean changes from baseline generated from the analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model with treatment group, sex, and geographic region as fixed factors, and baseline as a covariate. Data are for the FAS (full analysis set), except for incontinence outcomes, which are for the FAS-I. P-values are pairwise comparisons versus placebo in the ANCOVA model or stratified rank ANCOVA model for incontinence outcomes.

P < 0.05 with multiplicity adjustment.

P < 0.05 without multiplicity adjustment.

for TS-VAS an increase in value indicates improvement. For OAB-q Symptom Bother Score and PPBC a decrease in value indicates improvement.
