A Study to Assess the Single Dose Pharmacokinetics of Two and Proof of Efficacy of One New Etoricoxib Gel Formulation in Osteoarthritis Patients
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Etoricoxib 75 mg 4% DMSO Gel, Etoricoxib 75 mg 4% PG Gel, and 6 other interventions for Osteoarthritis Pain. Completed, enrolled 70 participants.
Detailed Summary
Study Part 1 is designed to assess the plasma pharmacokinetics of etoricoxib (ETOR) 4% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and propylene glycol (PG) formulations, each at 2 different doses, upon single-dose topical administration on the knee of osteoarthritis participants. Study Part 2 is designed to evaluate the efficacy of topical etoricoxib vs. placebo in the treatment of osteoarthritis of the knee. The primary hypothesis is that topical etoricoxib will be more effective than placebo in the treatment of osteoarthritis of the knee over 2 weeks of treatment as assessed by time-weighted average change from baseline on the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) Visual Analogue (VA) 3.0 pain subscale.
