About this study
Official title: A Trial Assessing the Outcome of Celecoxib Administration Versus Placebo Following Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
The aim of this study is to directly compare the clinical outcomes of both the celecoxib and placebo groups following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. The study will have short and long term goals. Validated outcome measures will aim to quantify pain control at 2 weeks after surgery, as well as knee function at 2 year follow-up. Groups will be compared using pain control scales, and functional knee outcome scores. The first null hypothesis tested by this study is that the celecoxib group experiences equal pain control compared with the placebo group. The second null hypothesis is that no knee function difference will be found between the celecoxib and placebo groups.
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
CelecoxibDrug
The treatment group will receive 400 mg Celecoxib p.o. preoperatively and the control group will receive a placebo between 1 and 3 hours pre-op, when other standard medications are administered. The treatment group will receive 200 mg of Celecoxib orally twice per day post operatively, for a duration of 5 days based on dosing protocols shown to be well tolerated and effective in treating pain following ambulatory surgery. The control group will receive a 5 day supply of placebo pills. Both groups will receive standard post surgical narcotic prescription (Oxycodone IR 5 - 10 mg po qid prn and acetaminophen 325 - 650 mg PO qid prn
PlaceboDrug
The treatment group will receive 400 mg Celecoxib p.o. preoperatively and the control group will receive a placebo between 1 and 3 hours pre-op, when other standard medications are administered. The treatment group will receive 200 mg of Celecoxib orally twice per day post operatively, for a duration of 5 days based on dosing protocols shown to be well tolerated and effective in treating pain following ambulatory surgery. The control group will receive a 5 day supply of placebo pills. Both groups will receive standard post surgical narcotic prescription (Oxycodone IR 5 - 10 mg po qid prn and acetaminophen 325 - 650 mg PO qid prn
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Celecoxib | Placebo comparator | Not described Receives: Drug: Celecoxib |
| Placebo | Placebo comparator | Not described Receives: Drug: Placebo |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
The primary outcome measure is to test the null hypothesis that Celecoxib perioperatively does not negatively influence the static testing of ACL reconstruction as measured by KT arthrometer at 2 years post op.
Measured: 2 years
Secondary outcomes (1)
The 2nd outcome tested by this study is that the celecoxib group experiences equal pain control compared with the placebo group.
Measured: 2 years

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?
The primary outcome measure is to test the null hypothesis that Celecoxib perioperatively does not negatively influence the static testing of ACL reconstruction as measured by KT arthrometer at 2 years post op. (time frame: 2 years). 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 Jun 2014.
