About this study

Official title: Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled Phase II Repeat Dose Study of the Safety and Efficacy of Three Parallel Loading and Maintenance Dose Regimens of CG100649 Versus Placebo for the Treatment of Primary Osteoarthritis in Male Subjects

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 3 loading and maintenance dose levels of CG100649 administered for 21 days in the treatment of osteoarthritis pain.

Read the detailed description

This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Subjects will discontinue current medications 5-14 days prior to randomization. Paracetamol (acetaminophen; ≤2 gm/day) may be used for breakthrough pain. Other NSAIDs, COX-2 inhibitors, opioids, and corticosteroids may not be used at any time during this study. Only subjects recording average DPI of 4 to 8 on a 0-10 numerical rating scale for at least 3 days, and no greater than 9 for more than 1 day, during the last 5 days of the washout period and meeting all other inclusion criteria will be randomized into the study.

Subjects meeting screening criteria will be randomized to receive 21 days dosing of an active dose of CG100649 or placebo.

Antiarthritic efficacy will be evaluated by changes in the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities (WOMAC) OA index completed on Day 0 (Baseline) and on Days 7, 14, 21, 28, and 35. DPI and functional interference (BPI scales) will be evaluated by subject diary during the screening period and on all study days through Day 35. Pain Relief will be evaluated on Days 7, 14, 21, 28, and 35.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • CG100649Drug

    Dual-acting COX-2 inhibitor \& carbonic anhydrase inhibitor in gelatin capsules. Oral loading doses (2, 4, or 8 mg vs. placebo) followed by daily oral maintenance doses (0.3, 0.6, or 1.2 mg vs. placebo) for 20 days (total 21 days therapy).

  • Silicified microcrystalline cellulose + talcDrug

    Gelatin capsules containing cellulose/talc matched for weight and color to experimental medication. Placebo administered orally 1x/day.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The primary endpoint will be the change in the sum of the WOMAC OA index at Day 21 vs. Baseline (Day 0). The primary analysis will be via repeated measures using mixed effects ANOVA with baseline and subject as random variables.

    Measured: 21 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change in av. Daily Pain Intensity (DPI) during last 7 days & entire 21 days); • Change in worst DPI (last 7 days; entire 21 days); • Change in WOMAC OA index on Days 7, 14, 28, and 35 vs. baseline; • Subject's Global Assessment • Safety

    Measured: 35 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing CG100649 and Silicified microcrystalline cellulose + talc in people with Osteoarthritis, Knee and Osteoarthritis, Hip, run by CrystalGenomics, Inc. at 1 site in Germany.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 13 inclusion and 27 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Jun 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Stefania Di Credico (+39 02 95794.1, stefania.decredico@quintiles.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The primary endpoint will be the change in the sum of the WOMAC OA index at Day 21 vs. Baseline (Day 0). The primary analysis will be via repeated measures using mixed effects ANOVA with baseline and subject as random variables. (time frame: 21 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Jun 2008.
