An investigation of factors contributing to higher levels of placebo response in clinical trials in neuropathic pain: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
We believe that a threshold of 3/10 offers the best compromise between maintaining assay sensitivity (the goal of thresholds) and the size of the regression to the mean effect.Ĭopyright © 2021 International Association for the Study of Pain.Īrakawa A, Kaneko M, Narukawa M. We have shown that using pain inclusion thresholds in clinical trials drives progressively larger regression to the mean effects. Furthermore, the effect increasing pain inclusion thresholds had on the regression to the mean effect was increased by decreasing sample mean values at baseline and intermeasurement correlations, and increasing sample variance.
That is, the regression to the mean effect was magnified by increasing inclusion thresholds. We found a progressive increase in the mean pain intensity as the pain inclusion threshold increased, but this increase was not uniform, having an increasing effect on baseline measurements compared with study endpoint measurements as the threshold was increased. All data were modelled on a hypothetical placebo control group. We modelled the effects of pain intensity inclusion thresholds (3/10, 4/10, and 5/10 on a 0- to 10-point numerical pain rating scale) on the magnitude of the regression to the mean effect under conditions that were consistent with the sample mean and variance, and intermeasurement correlation observed in clinical trials for the management of chronic pain.
