About this study

Official title: Open-Label Safety Study of HZT-501 in Patients Who Require Long-Term Daily Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug Treatment

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of long-term treatment with HZT-501, a fixed-dose combination oral tablet of 800 mg ibuprofen and 26.6 mg famotidine for patients that require long-term NSAID treatment.

Read the detailed description

HZT-501, a fixed-dose combination of ibuprofen, a pain and inflammation relieving non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), and famotidine, a histamine type 2 receptor antagonist (H2RA), is being developed for the treatment of patients with signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, mild to moderate pain or dysmenorrhea who are at risk of developing ibuprofen-associated upper gastrointestinal ulcers.

Study with completed results acquired from Horizon in 2024.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events

    Measured: 54 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change From Baseline in the Pain Intensity Scale of the Severity of Dyspepsia Assessment (SODA) Questionnaire at 54 Weeks

    The pain intensity scale of the SODA questionnaire ranges from 2 - 47. Change from baseline compares the score at Week 54 to the baseline score for each participant who completed the pain intensity questions of the SODA questionnaire at baseline and Week 54. Higher scores indicate greater symptom severity and therefore a negative mean change from baseline is indicative of an improvement in symptoms.

    Measured: Baseline and 54 Weeks

  2. Change From Baseline in the Non-pain Symptoms Scale of the Severity of Dyspepsia Assessment (SODA) Questionnaire at 54 Weeks

    The non-pain symptom scale of the SODA questionnaire ranges from 7 - 35. Change from baseline compares the score at Week 54 to the baseline score for each participant that completed the non-pain symptom questions of the SODA questionnaire at baseline and Week 54. Higher scores indicate greater symptom severity and therefore a negative mean change from baseline is indicative of an improvement in symptoms.

    Measured: Baseline and 54 Weeks

  3. Change From Baseline in the Satisfaction With Dyspepsia-Related Health Scale of the Severity of Dyspepsia Assessment (SODA) Questionnaire at 54 Weeks

    The satisfaction with dyspepsia-related health scale of the SODA questionnaire ranges from 2 - 23. Change from baseline compares the score at Week 54 to the baseline score for each participant who completed the Satisfaction questions of the SODA questionnaire at baseline and Week 54. A positive change from baseline in the SODA satisfaction scale represents a participant's overall improved satisfaction with their dyspepsia-related health.

    Measured: Baseline and 54 Weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing HZT-501 in people with Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis, run by Amgen at 4 sites 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 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 18 Dec 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 25 Jul 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?

Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (time frame: 54 weeks). 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 NCT00984815, 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 18 Dec 2024.
