What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Minimum Joint Space Width in the Medial Compartment of the Tibiofemoral Joint of the Signal Knee After 1 Year of Treatment

    The structural primary efficacy endpoint is the 1-year change from baseline in minimum joint space width (JSW) in the medial compartment of the tibiofemoral joint of the signal knee, as measured by microfocal knee radiographs obtained in the semi-flexed position.

    Measured: baseline and 12 months

  2. Change in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) Total Score at 1 Year

    The symptomatic primary efficacy endpoint is the change in total WOMAC scores after 1 year of treatment. The WOMAC consists of 24 items divided into 3 subscales: Pain (5 items), Stiffness (2 items), Physical Function (17 items). The WOMAC uses descriptors for all items: none, mild moderate, severe, and extreme (corresponding to an ordinal scale of 0-4.) Scores are summed for items in each subscale, with possible ranges as follows: pain=0-20, stiffness=0-8, physical function=0-68. The total WOMAC score is created by summing the items for all three subscales (min=0, max=96)

    Measured: baseline and 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing PG-530742, 50 mg PG-530742 and 100 mg PG-530742 in people with Osteoarthritis, Knee, run by Procter and Gamble at 23 sites in 2 countries.

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 1 inclusion and 4 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 8 Nov 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 23 sites in United Kingdom, Hungary. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 8 Nov 2011). 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?

Change in Minimum Joint Space Width in the Medial Compartment of the Tibiofemoral Joint of the Signal Knee After 1 Year of Treatment (time frame: baseline and 12 months). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00041756, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 8 Nov 2011.
