What was measured

Changes in fatigue as measured using subscales of MFSI-SF, the interference scale of the BFI and the linear analogue scale (LASA) fatigue question were compared between arms for those participants who express a perceived change in fatigue via the global impression score of a +2 (moderately better) and +3 (very much better).

Analysis population: Includes all participants who completed both baseline and week 4 assessments with a perceived change in fatigue via the global impression score of a +2 and +3 at week 4.
