  • Participation in any study of an investigational treatment in the 4 weeks before screening.
  • Presence of uncontrolled acute or chronic medical illness, e.g. gastrointestinal disorder, diabetes, hypertension, thyroid disorder, depression and/or infection that would endanger a subject if they were to participate in the study.
  • Gastrointestinal disorder or surgery leading to impaired drug absorption.

Show all 16Show fewer
  • Schizophrenia or bipolar disorder.

  • Serious blood coagulation disorder including use of systemic anticoagulants.
  • Positive test result for H. pylori at screening.
  • Baseline endoscopy showing any gastric or duodenal ulcer at least 3 mm in diameter with depth.
  • Screening laboratory value for ALT, AST >2 times the upper limit of normal.
  • Estimated creatinine clearance < 30 ml/min.
  • Other than noted specifically, any screening laboratory value that is clinically significant in the investigator's opinion and would endanger a subject if they were to participate in the study.
  • History of malignancy, treated or untreated, within the past 5 years, with the exception of successfully treated basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin.

What participants receive

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

  • PN 200 tablets (500 mg naproxen and 20 mg omeprazole)Drug

  • Naproxen 500 mg tablets (PN 200 minus omeprazole)Drug

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary efficacy variable is the incidence of gastric ulcers, defined as a mucosal break of at least 3 mm in diameter (measured by close application of open endoscopic biopsy forceps) with depth, at anytime throughout 6 months of study treatment.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The secondary efficacy variable is the incidence of duodenal ulcers at any time throughout 6 months of treatment, tolerability and safety.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing PN 200 tablets (500 mg naproxen and 20 mg omeprazole) and Naproxen 500 mg tablets (PN 200 minus omeprazole) in people with Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis, run by POZEN 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 11 inclusion and 16 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 22 Apr 2008. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

The primary efficacy variable is the incidence of gastric ulcers, defined as a mucosal break of at least 3 mm in diameter (measured by close application of open endoscopic biopsy forceps) with depth, at anytime throughout 6 months of study treatment.. 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 22 Apr 2008.
