Trial Outcomes & Findings for Study to Find Out the Optimal Dose of Caffeine in the Combination Tablet of Naproxen Sodium and Caffeine in Patients Experiencing Moderate to Severe Pain After Having Wisdom Teeth Removed (NCT NCT04132336)

NCT ID: NCT04132336

Last Updated: 2021-09-01

Results Overview

Pain intensity is measured using Numerical Rating Scale (from 0 to 10: 0 = no pain, 10 = worst possible pain). For each post dose time point, pain intensity difference (PID) is derived by subtracting the pain intensity at the post dose time point from the baseline intensity score (baseline score - post-baseline score). A positive difference is indicative of improvement. Sum of Pain Intensity Differences (SPIDs) was calculated by multiplying the PID score at each post-dose time point by the duration (in hours) since the preceding time point and then summing these values over the specific time period. SPID over 8 hours ranges from -80 to 80. A higher value indicates a better pain reduction.

Participant Flow

Study was conducted at a single center in United States with first participant first visit on 12-Nov-2019 and last participant last visit on 02-Mar-2020. Study was completed on 03-Mar-2020 (End of follow up, phone call).

A total of 193 participants, including 32 in each of the naproxen sodium containing groups, 16 in the caffeine group, and 17 in the placebo group, underwent dental surgery and were randomized to study drug

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to 2 hours, 4 hours and 12 hours post dose

Pain intensity is measured using Numerical Rating Scale (from 0 to 10: 0 = no pain, 10 = worst possible pain). For each post dose time point, pain intensity difference (PID) is derived by subtracting the pain intensity at the post dose time point from the baseline intensity score (baseline score - post-baseline score). A positive difference is indicative of improvement. Sum of Pain Intensity Differences (SPIDs) was calculated by multiplying the PID score at each post-dose time point by the duration (in hours) since the preceding time point and then summing these values over the specific time period. SPID 0-2 ranges from -20 to 20, SPID 0-4 ranges from -40 to 40 and SPID 0-12 ranges from -120 to 120. A higher value indicates a better pain reduction.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to 8 hours post dose

Pain relief is measured using Categorical Pain Relief Rating Scale (0 = No relief, 1 = a little relief, 2 = some relief, 3 = a lot of relief, 4 = complete relief). Total Pain Relief is calculated as the area under the curve of pain relief score over time for the given time period by multiplying the pain relief score at each time point by the duration (in hours) since the preceding time point and then summing these values over the specific time period. TOTPAR over 8 hours ranges from 0 to 32, a higher value indicates more pain relief.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to 12 hours post dose

Pain intensity is measured using Numerical Rating Scale (from 0 to 10: 0 = no pain, 10 = worst possible pain). For each post dose time point, pain intensity difference (PID) is derived by subtracting the pain intensity at the post dose time point from the baseline intensity score (baseline score - post-baseline score). A positive difference is indicative of improvement

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to 12 hours post dose

Pain intensity is measured using Numerical Rating Scale (from 0 to 10: 0 = no pain, 10 = worst possible pain). Participants circle a number (from 0 to 10) on the Numerical Rating Scale to indicate the severity the pain they are experiencing at baseline and at each post dose time point. For each post dose time point, pain intensity difference (PID) is derived by subtracting the pain intensity at the post dose time point from the baseline intensity score (baseline score - post-baseline score).

Timeframe: Up to 12 hours post dose

Pain relief is measured using Categorical Pain Relief Rating Scale (0 = No relief, 1 = a little relief, 2 = some relief, 3 = a lot of relief, 4 = complete relief). At each post-dose time point, participants check the appropriate box (from 0 to 4) on the Categorical Pain Relief Rating Scale to indicate the relief from starting pain at the post dose time points.
