Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Clinical Trial to Compare Safety and Effectiveness for Relieving Tenderness of 10% Naproxen Gel vs. a 2.32% Diclofenac Diethylamine Gel in the Treatment of Strains and Bruises of the Legs. (NCT NCT05026320)

NCT ID: NCT05026320

Last Updated: 2025-01-22

Results Overview

Algometry area under the curve (AUC) from zero to the initial 72h post dose. The 72h AUC algometry data was an aggregate of all measurements from timepoints and data including the 72h timepoint. The average data of all participants was reported.
