  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Had unilateral or bilateral OA of the knee diagnosed according to the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria based on clinical and radiographic evidence of OA (presence of osteophytes on x-ray and written evaluation)
  • Had functional capacity class rating of I, II, or III according to ACR classification
  • Had a normal 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) without any clinically significant abnormalities in heart rate, rhythm, or conduction
  • Had discontinued use of all analgesic medications (including over-the-counter [OTC] analgesics) prior to randomization (patients were allowed limited use of analgesic medications for non-study pain)
  • At baseline visit, patients were randomized to active treatment if they had an average daily pain intensity score for the index joint of 5 or greater (on a 0 to 10 scale) for at least 3 days out of the 5 consecutive days immediately preceding the baseline visit; 0 is defined as "no pain" and 10 is defined as "pain as bad as ever imagined" as measured by Question 5 of the BPI and recorded in a diary.
  • At baseline visit, patients were randomized to active treatment if they had an OA severity score for the index joint of 7 or greater on a composite scale of 0 to 24 as measured by the Index of Severity for Osteoarthrosis of the Knee

Who cannot join

  • Had been diagnosed with inflammatory arthritis, gout, pseudo-gout or Paget's disease that in the investigator's opinion would interfere with the assessment of pain and other symptoms of OA
  • Had elective surgery scheduled to occur during the 14-week study
  • Had serious medical conditions requiring daily medications, such as anticonvulsants and tricyclic antidepressants, that may confound study results
  • Had any other clinically significant joint disease or prior joint replacement surgery at the index joint

  • Had moderate or greater hepatic impairment
Show all 17Show fewer
  • Had experienced asthma, urticaria, or allergic-type reactions after taking aspirin or other NSAIDs
  • Had a prior history of peptic ulcer disease and/or gastrointestinal bleeding
  • Were taking analgesic medications, glucosamine, or chondroitin that could not be discontinued during the study. Patients taking these medications prior to the study were required to discontinue use for the duration of the study. Patients using opioid analgesics at study entry were required to taper off these medications.
  • Were taking long-acting opioids or opioids that could not be discontinued over the first 5 days of the washout period.
  • Were receiving fluconazole or lithium (secondary to drug-drug-interaction risks)
  • Were taking a lidocaine-containing products that could not be discontinued during the study
  • Had previously failed treatment with Lidoderm analgesic patch for OA
  • Had recently received either a corticosteroid injection (within 8 weeks) or hyaluronic acid (within 6 months) of study entry
  • Were unable to discontinue use of topic drugs applied to the knee

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Lidoderm and Celecoxib in people with Osteoarthritis of the Knee, run by Endo USA Inc., a Keenova Therapeutics Company at 20 sites in United States.

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 6 inclusion and 17 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Feb 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 20 sites in United States. 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. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Safety concerns with the COX-2 specific inhibitor class of drug.). Results are not available in the source record.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Mean change from baseline to Week 12 in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities OA Index (WOMAC) pain subscale (time frame: Visits - V2 (Day 0), V3 (Day 14), V4 (Day 28), V5 (Day 42), V6 (Day 56), V7 (Day 84)). 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 15 Feb 2010.
