Change From Baseline in the Mean NRS Score at Week 4
The change from baseline in the mean NRS score at each time point was calculated using an MMRM with the change from baseline in the mean NRS score at each time point as an objective variable, group, time point, and group-by-time point interaction as fixed effects, mean NRS score at baseline and presence or absence of prior treatment with nalfurafine hydrochloride as dynamic allocation factors as a covariate, and subjects as a random effect for data up to Week 4 of the double-blind period in FAS. Looking back on the period between the time of awakening on the previous day of assessment and the time of awakening on the day of assessment (including sleeping hours) once daily, subjects will assess the NRS score for the most severe itching by themselves. The most severe itching within the day will be assessed in integer on a scale ranging from 0 to 10, where 0 represents no itching and 10 represents worst itching imaginable.
