About this study

Official title: Efficacy and Safety of Etoricoxib-tramadol 120mg/100mg on Acute Pain After Impacted Lower Third Molar Extraction: A Double Blind Randomized Controlled Trial

The goal of the present phase IIb clinical trial was to compare the safety and efficacy of the fixed-dose combination etoricoxib-tramadol 120mg/100mg tablet (once a day, for three days) versus naproxen 220mg tablet plus tramadol 50 mg capsule in patients with acute postoperative pain after impacted third molar extraction. The main research question was: Is the analgesic efficacy of etoricoxib-tramadol 120mg/100mg tablet non-inferior to naproxen 220 mg tablet + tramadol 50 mg capsule in a clinical model of moderate to severe acute pain? After informed consent, patients were randomly assigned to one of the two arms: test product (etoricoxib-tramadol 120mg/100mg tablet) or active comparator (naproxen 220mg tablet + tramadol 50 mg capsule). After surgery, patients were requested to start the treatment with study drugs (test product was administered once daily for three days; meanwhile reference drug was administered twice a day for three days).

Investigators compared the effects of both treatments on pain intensity at different time frames using the visual analogue scale. Furthermore, the safety of investigational drugs was assessed during the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Pain intensity difference (PID)

    The difference in pain intensity at 4 h after drug administration versus time 0 (baseline, before dosing)

    Measured: At 4 h (Day 0, postdosing) respect the baseline (Day 0, before dosing)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Pain intensity difference (PID)

    The difference in pain intensity at 1, 2, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours after drug administration versus time 0 (baseline, before dosing)

    Measured: At 1, 2, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours postdosing respecto the baseline (Day 0, before dosing)

  2. Total pain relief (TOTPAR)

    TOTPAR is a time-weighted measure of AUC or total area under the pain relief curve and is a summary measure that integrates serial assessments of a subject's pain over the duration of the study or in any time frime.

    Measured: At 4, 6, 12, 24, 48, 72 hours postdosing respect to the baseline (Day 0, before dosing)

  3. Trismus control

    Measurement the difference of mouth opening (in mm) at baseline (before dosing) and at the end of the study (Day 7).

    Measured: At the end of the study (Day 7) respect to the baseline (Day 0, before dosing)

  4. Adverse events

    Characteristics and frequency of adverse events

    Measured: From informed consent (Day -28) to the end of the study (Day 7)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing etoricoxib-tramadol, Naproxen and Tramadol in people with Acute Pain and Postoperative Pain, run by Laboratorios Liomont at 1 site in Mexico.

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 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Oct 2024. 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 Mexico. 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?

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?

Pain intensity difference (PID) (time frame: At 4 h (Day 0, postdosing) respect the baseline (Day 0, before dosing)). 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 10 Oct 2024.
