TABLE 3.
Decrease in total CSOM score vs day 0 (cut‐off for treatment success) | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
% of cats with treatment success | ≥2 | ≥3 | ≥4 | ≥5 a |
Placebo group | 64.65 | 52.77 | 39.40 | 29.74 |
Frunevetmab group | 75.91 | 69.29 | 58.32 | 43.61 |
P‐value | 0.031* | 0.018* | 0.012* | 0.032* |
Treatment effect b | 11.26% | 16.52% | 18.92% | 13.87% |
NNT | 8.9 | 6.1 | 5.3 | 7.2 |
Note: Statistical comparison (P‐value) and treatment effect is also shown for each cut‐off.
Abbreviation: NNT, number needed to treat.
Frunevetmab n = 8 and placebo n = 2 could not be included in the analysis because CSOM scores were <8 at baseline, meaning they could not improve by ≥5 (lowest score possible on CSOM was 3).
Calculated using the formula [treatment effect minus placebo effect]/[placebo effect] expressed as a percentage.
Significant P‐value.
