What is being measured

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

  1. Mean Pain Intensity Difference at 30 Minutes (mPID30min)

    mPID score was obtained by summation of product of length of the interval and difference in pain intensity (PI) divided by summation of length of the interval. Summation was done from zero to 30 minutes. Difference in pain intensity was obtained by subtracting the Pain Intensity Visual Analogue Scale (PI-VAS) at Minute 30 from baseline PI-VAS score. PI-VAS assessed with response to the question "How much pain are you having right now?" on a 100 millimeter (mm) line, with 0 mm=no pain, 100 mm= worst possible pain. mPID score ranged from -100 to 100. Positive score= improved response in pain.

    Measured: Minute 30

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Mean Pain Intensity Difference at 120 Min (mPID120min)

    mPID score was obtained by summation of product of length of the interval and difference in pain intensity (PI) divided by summation of length of the interval. Summation was done from zero to 120 minutes. Difference in pain intensity was obtained by subtracting the Pain Intensity Visual Analogue Scale (PI-VAS) at Minute 120 from baseline PI-VAS score. PI-VAS assessed with response to the question "How much pain are you having right now?" on a 100 millimeter (mm) line, with 0 mm=no pain, 100 mm= worst possible pain. mPID score ranged from -100 to 100. Positive score= improved response in pain.

    Measured: Minute 120

  2. Time-specific Pain Intensity (PI) VAS Score

    PI-VAS assessed with response to the question "How much pain are you having right now?" on a 100 mm line, with 0 mm=no pain, 100 mm= worst possible pain.

    Measured: Baseline, Minute 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120

  3. Time-specific Pain Intensity Difference (PID) at Minute 15, 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120

    PID score was obtained by subtracting the PI-VAS at each time point from baseline PI score. PI-VAS assessed with response to the question "How much pain are you having right now?" on a 100 mm line, with 0 mm=no pain, 100 mm= worst possible pain. PID score ranged from -100 to 100. Positive score= improved response in pain.

    Measured: Baseline, Minute 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120

  4. Time-weighted Sum of Pain Relief Score Over 120 Min (TOTPAR120min)

    TOTPAR: time-weighted sum of Pain Relief (PR) over 120 min. TOTPAR score range was 0 (worst) to 480 (best). PR was assessed on a 5-point categorical pain relief rating scale wherein 0=No relief to 4=Complete relief.

    Measured: Baseline through Minute 120

  5. Number of Participants With Pain Relief (PR)

    PR was assessed on a 5-point categorical pain relief rating scale wherein 0= None, 1= a little, 2= Some, 3= a lot and 4= Complete relief.

    Measured: Minute 30, 120

  6. Number of Participants With Response in Pain Intensity

    PI-VAS assessed with response to the question "How much pain are you having right now?" on a 100 mm line, with 0 mm=no pain, 100 mm= worst possible pain. Responders were those who had a decreased in VAS of at least 20 mm.

    Measured: Minute 30

  7. Patient's Global Evaluation of Study Medication

    Participants' response to the question "How would you rate the study medication you received for pain?" on a 4-point categorical scale, 1=Poor, 2= Fair, 3=Good, 4=Excellent was evaluated.

    Measured: Minute 30, 120

  8. Physician's Global Evaluation of Study Medication

    Physicians' response to the question "How would you rate the study medication the patient received for pain?" on a 4-point categorical scale, 1=Poor, 2= Fair, 3=Good, 4=Excellent was evaluated.

    Measured: Minute 30, 120

  9. Number of Participants With Use of Rescue Medication (RM)

    Rescue medications included intravenous 0.1 to 0.2 mg/kilogram (kg) of morphine or 1 mg/kg of pethidine or muscle relaxants.

    Measured: Up to Minute 120

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Ketoprofen 100mg and Parecoxib 40mg in people with Pain, run by Pfizer at 17 sites in 6 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 2 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 28 Jan 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 sites in Brazil, Costa Rica, Peru, Chile, Ecuador and 1 more country. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 28 Jan 2013). 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?

Mean Pain Intensity Difference at 30 Minutes (mPID30min) (time frame: Minute 30). 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 28 Jan 2013.
