Trial Outcomes & Findings for Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of Extended Release (ER) Naproxen Sodium (NCT NCT01389284)

NCT ID: NCT01389284

Last Updated: 2015-08-25

Results Overview

SPID0-24 was calculated by multiplying the pain intensity difference score at each post-dose timepoint by the duration (in hours) since the preceding timepoint and then summing these values over 0 to 24 hours. Pain intensity was measured at baseline, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 hours using the 4-point categorical pain intensity scale: 0 = none, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe. SPID0-24 can vary from -24 to 72. The positive SPID value indicates improvement of pain relief. The higher the SPID value, the more improvement of pain relief.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 0-6, 0-8, 0-12, 0-16, 0-24, and 16-24 hours postdose

Population: Intent-to-treat (ITT)

TOTPARs were derived by multiplying the pain relief score at each post-dose timepoint by the duration (in hours) since the preceding timepoint and then summing these values over the specified interval. Pain Relief was evaluated at 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 hours postdose, using the 5-point overall pain relief scale: 0 = No relief, 1 = A little relief, 2 = Some relief, 3 = A lot of relief, 4 = Complete relief. The possible total score ranges of TOTPARs are: TOTPAR0-6: 0 to 18, TOTPAR0-8: 0 to 24, TOTPAR0-12: 0 to 36, TOTPAR0-16: 0 to 48, TOTPAR0-24: 0 to 72, TOTPAR16-24: 0 to 24.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to 24 hours postdose

Population: Intent-to-treat (ITT)

Time to first use of rescue medication was estimated using Kaplan-Meier method and analyzed by a logrank test stratified by baseline pain intensity. If at least 50% of subjects in a treatment group took rescue medication, the median time to first rescue was determined for that treatment group.
