What is being measured

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

  1. Time to First Perceptible Pain Relief (PR)

    Measured: 0 to 6 hours

  2. Time to First Perceptible Pain Relief (PR) Confirmed

    Measured: 0 to 6 hours

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Time to Meaningful Pain Relief (PR)

    Measured: 0 to 6 hours

  2. Pain Intensity at 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60 Minutes and at 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 Hours After Dosing

    Pain Intensity (PI) was rated by subjects on a 4-point Categorical Pain Intensity Scale (0 = no pain, 1 = mild pain, 2 = moderate pain, 3 = severe pain) for all pain intensity assessments post-dose.

    Measured: 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 minutes and at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 hours postdose

  3. Pain Intensity Difference (PID) at 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60 Minutes and at 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 Hours After Dosing

    Pain intensity was evaluated using a 4-point Categorical Pain Intensity Rating Scale (0 = no pain, 1 = mild pain, 2 = moderate pain, 3 = severe pain) for all pain intensity assessments post-dose.

    For each post-dose time point, PID was derived by subtracting the pain intensity at the post-dose time point from the baseline intensity score (baseline score - post-baseline score). A positive difference was indicative of improvement.

    Measured: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60 minutes and at 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 hours postdose

  4. Pain Relief at 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60 Minutes and at 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 Hours After Dosing

    Pain relief was rated by subjects using a 5-point Categorical Relief Rating Scale (0 = no relief, 1 = a little relief, 2 = some relief, 3 = a lot of relief, 4 = complete relief).

    Measured: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60 minutes and at 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 hours postdose

  5. Summed Pain Intensity Differences (SPID) From Hour 0 Through Hour 2, Hour 4 and Hour 6

    Measured: 0 to 6 hours postdose

  6. Summed Total Pain Relief (TOTPAR) From Hour 0 Through Hour 2, Hour 4 and Hour 6

    Measured: 0-6 hours post-dose

  7. Time to First use of Rescue Medication

    Measured: 0 to 6 hours

  8. Cumulative Percentage of Subjects Taking Rescue Medication

    Measured: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 hours postdose

  9. Global Assessment of the Investigational Product as a Pain Reliever at 6 Hours After Dosing or Immediately Before the First Intake of Rescue Medication

    Measured: At 6 hours postdose or immediately before first use of rescue medication

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Acetylsalicylic acid (Fast release Aspirin, BAY1019036) and Acetylsalicylic Acid (Aspirin, BAYE4465) in people with Drugs, Investigational, run by Bayer at 2 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 6 inclusion and 9 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 19 Dec 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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. 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 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?

Time to First Perceptible Pain Relief (PR) (time frame: 0 to 6 hours). 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?
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 19 Dec 2018.
