What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluate Efficacy & Safety of HP-5000 Topical Patches in Subjects With Osteoarthritis of the Knee: Change in Osteoarthritis Pain Score

    To evaluate efficacy of HP-5000 Active Topical Patch 1 and HP-5000 Active Topical Patch 2 compared with placebo for the treatment of Osteoarthritis of the knee as evaluated by change in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) pain score from baseline to week 4. WOMAC pain score is a scale that evaluate five items including walking, stair climbing, nocturnal, rest and weight bearing. Each item is rated on a scale of 0 to 4, with 0 being no difficulty and 4 being extremely difficulty. The total score is the sum of five items. The total score range from 0 to 20 with a low score considered a better outcome and a high score considered a worse outcome.

    Measured: Baseline and 4 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. WOMAC Pain Score Week 2 Change From Baseline

    To evaluate efficacy of HP-5000 Active Topical Patch 1 and HP-5000 Active Topical Patch 2 compared with placebo for the treatment of Osteoarthritis of the knee as evaluated by change in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) pain score from baseline to week 2. WOMAC pain score is a scale that evaluate five items including walking, stair climbing, nocturnal, rest and weight bearing. Each item is rated on a scale of 0 to 4, with 0 being no difficulty and 4 being extremely difficulty. The total score is the sum of five items. The total score range from 0 to 20 with a low score considered a better outcome and a high score considered a worse outcome. The total score range from 0 to 20 with a low score considered a better outcome and a high score considered a worse outcome.

    Measured: Baseline and 2 weeks

  2. WOMAC Stiffness Score Change From Baseline

    To evaluate efficacy of HP-5000 Active Topical Patch 1 and HP-5000 Active Topical Patch 2 compared with placebo for the treatment of Osteoarthritis of the knee as evaluated by change in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) Stiffness Score from baseline to week 4. The WOMAC Stiffness scale assesses 2 items including morning stiffness and stiffness occurring later in the day. Each item is rated on a scale of 0 to 4, with 0 being no difficulty and 4 being extremely difficulty. The total score is the sum of two items range from 0 to 8 with a low score considered as a better outcome.

    Measured: Baseline and 4 weeks

  3. WOMAC Physical Function Score

    To evaluate efficacy of HP-5000 Active Topical Patch 1 and HP-5000 Active Topical Patch 2 compared with placebo for the treatment of Osteoarthritis of the knee as evaluated by change in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) physical function score from baseline to week 4. The WOMAC Physical Function assesses the following 17 items using the 0 to 4 scale. These 17 items include: 1. descending stairs; 2. ascending stairs; 3. rising from sitting; 4. standing; 5. bending to floor; 6. walking on a flat surface; 7. getting in/getting out of car; 8. going shopping; 9. putting on socks; 10. lying in bed; 11. taking off socks; 12. rising from bed; 13. getting in/out of bath; 14. sitting; 15. getting on/off toilet; 16. heavy domestic duties; 17. light domestic duties. Each item is rated on a scale of 0 to 4, with 0 being no difficulty and 4 being extremely difficulty. Total score range from 0 to 68 with lower score considered a better outcome.

    Measured: Baseline and 4 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Diclofenac Sodium Active Topical Patch 1 and Diclofenac Sodium Active Topical Patch 2 in people with Osteoarthritis of the Knee, run by Noven Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at 1 site 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 4 inclusion and 3 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 23 Dec 2021. 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 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 23 Dec 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Evaluate Efficacy & Safety of HP-5000 Topical Patches in Subjects With Osteoarthritis of the Knee: Change in Osteoarthritis Pain Score (time frame: Baseline and 4 weeks). 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 23 Dec 2021.
