Percentage of Patients Continent (PPC)
PPC is the percentage of patients with complete continence (without any urgency urinary incontinence episodes) during the 3-day bladder diary period associated with the Week 14 visit.
Time frame: Week 14
Change From Baseline in Continent Days Per Week (CDW)
Continent Days per Week is the average of the number of times an individual has no incontinence episodes in a day within the 3-day collection period calculated as 7 x (number of dry days within the 3-day diary period) divided by the number of valid diary days with at least one valid bladder diary entry during the 3-day period. A positive change from Baseline (more continent/fewer incontinent days per week ) indicated improvement.
Time frame: Baseline, Week 14
Change From Baseline in Nocturic Toilet Voids
A nocturic (nighttime) toilet void is identified if the patient marks "Yes" for both Toilet Voiding and Sleep Interruption in the 3-day bladder diary. The daily average number of nocturic toilet voids is obtained as the sum of all nighttime toilet voids over the 3-day bladder diary period divided by number of valid diary days with at least one valid bladder diary entry during the 3-day period. A negative change from Baseline (fewer nocturic toilet voids) indicated improvement.
Time frame: Baseline, Week 14
Change From Baseline in Urgency-Related Toilet Voids
Urgency-related toilet void (or urinary urgency) is identified if the patient marks "Yes" for both Urgency Association Void and Toilet Voiding in the 3-day bladder diary. The daily average number of urgency-related voids is calculated as the sum of all urgency episodes over the 3-day bladder diary period divided by the number of valid diary days with at least one valid bladder diary entry during the 3-day period. A negative change from Baseline (fewer urgency related toilet voids) indicated improvement.
Time frame: Baseline, Week 14

Change From Baseline in Daily Average Overactive Bladder-Symptom Composite Score (OAB-SCS)
The OAB-SCS is derived from the 3-day bladder diary which includes: 1) 24-hour voiding frequency; 2) the Indevus Urgency Severity Scale (IUSS) Score (0=no urgency, 1=aware of urgency but is tolerable, 2=urgency discomfort interferes with activities/tasks, 3=extreme urgency discomfort that abruptly stops activities/tasks associated with each toilet void); and 3) the frequency of Urgency Urinary Incontinence episodes. Each toilet void is then assigned a point value from 1 (IUSS Score=0) to 5 (UUI episode not associated with a toilet void). The daily average OAB-SCS is then calculated based on the diary entries and assigned point values. The lowest possible daily average OAB-SCS is 0 (corresponding to no urgency in every void). There is no upper limit since the score is based on the number of voids per day. Scores \<= 30 indicate mild OAB, scores \> 30 to 39 indicate moderate OAB, and scores \>= 40 indicate severe OAB. A negative change from Baseline indicated improvement.
Time frame: Baseline, Week 14
Change From Baseline in Voided Volume
Average volume of urine voided per toilet void is calculated by total volume collected in a 24-hour diary period divided by the number of individual entries of volume voided in that period. A positive change from Baseline (greater volume voided) indicated improvement. A negative change from Baseline (less volume voided) indicated a worsening.
Time frame: Baseline, Week 14
Change From Baseline in Urgency Severity
The urgency severity per toilet void is based on the Indevus Urgency Severity Scale (IUSS). The patient recorded urinary urgency severity in a 3-day bladder diary using a 4-point scale: 0=None-no urgency (best), 1=Slight-aware of urgency but is tolerable, 2=Moderate-urgency discomfort interferes with activities/tasks, 3=Severe-extreme urgency discomfort that abruptly stops activities/tasks (worst). Urgency Severity is calculated as the sum of all IUSS scores during the 3-day diary period divided by the number of toilet voids recorded during that period. A negative change from Baseline indicated improvement.
Time frame: Baseline, Week 14
Change From Baseline in Urgency Urinary Incontinence (UUI)
Urgency urinary incontinence is identified if the patient marks "Yes" for both Accidental Leakage and Urgency Associated Void in the 3-day bladder diary, and the Urgency Severity score is ≥ 1. Average daily episodes of UUI is calculated as the sum of all UUI episodes over 3-day diary period divided by the number of valid diary days with at least one valid bladder diary entry during the 3-day period. A negative change from Baseline indicated improvement.
