About this study

Official title: The Correlation of COX-2 Expression in Human Polymorphonuclear Leukocytes/Macrophages and Postoperative Pain

To investigate the dose-effect relations among the expression of COX-2 in polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL) and macrophages, systemic and local inflammatory response and postoperative pain

Read the detailed description

we detect COX-2mRNA, COX-2 protein expression in inflammatory cells and PGE2 concentration in patients with abdominal surgery. The differences of COX-2 expression in PMNL are compared between peripheral blood and partial incision transudate to the same individual, and at the same time, the COX-2 expression differences in PMNL and macrophages, and PGE2 concentration in partial incision transudate also compared interindividually, to show the relevance between the difference and postoperative pain. In addition, the effects of Parecoxib Sodium on COX-2 expression of the amount in PMNL and macrophages are investigated during the development of postoperative inflammatory pain. Finally, we will clear the dose-effect relations among the expression of COX-2 in inflammatory cell, systemic and local inflammatory response and postoperative pain.

What participants receive

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

  • Parecoxib SodiumDrug

    40 mg Parecoxib Sodium is give to the patients intravenously (diluted with 5 ml normal saline) at 30 minutes before surgery, 20 mg Parecoxib Sodium (diluted with 5 ml normal saline) at 8 hours,20 hours,32 hours,44 hours,56 hours after surgery respectively.

What is being measured

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

  1. COX-2 mRNA and protein expression in PMNL and macrophages without drugs intervention

    The individual differences in COX-2 expression

    Measured: 6 month

  2. the expression of COX-2 in PMNL and macrophages after the COX-2 inhibitor was used

    The effects of COX-2 inhibitor on the expression of COX-2 in PMNL and macrophages

    Measured: 6 month

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Inflammatory mediators detection: PEG2

    The content of PEG2 in serum is detected by ELASA

    Measured: 4 month

  2. Postoperative pain assessment

    The visual analogue scale (VAS) at rest and patient controlled analgesia (PCA) sufentanyl consumption is assessed at all corresponding time points.

    Measured: 2 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Parecoxib Sodium in people with Post-Operative Pain, run by Xianwei Zhang at 1 site in China.

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 10 inclusion and 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Apr 2015. 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 China. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

COX-2 mRNA and protein expression in PMNL and macrophages without drugs intervention (time frame: 6 month). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 17 Apr 2015.
