About this study

Official title: Application of COX-2 Inhibitor for Treatment of Primary Hypertrophic Osteoarthropathy

The purpose of this study is to determine whether COX-2 inhibitor is effective in the treatment of primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy

Read the detailed description

Patients with primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy(PHO) were diagnosed based on clinical manifestations and symptoms. PHO patients were treated with COX-2 inhibitor after signing informed consent. The extend of alleviation, the change of the markers on prostaglandin E metabolic pathway and the adverse event on different time points were recorded to identify the efficacy and safety.

What is being measured

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

  1. Prostaglandin E2(PGE2) level change after COX-2 inhibitor treatment in PHO patients

    measure the serum prostaglandin E2 level at 3 months

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Prostaglandin E2(PGE2) level change after COX-2 inhibitor treatment in PHO

    measure the serum prostaglandin E2 level at 6 months

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. change in pain on VAS scale after COX-2 inhibitor treatment

    use Visual Analogue Score (VAS) to evaluate pain

    Measured: 3 months

  2. change in pain on VAS scale after COX-2 inhibitor treatment

    Measured: 6 months

  3. change in pain on VAS scale after COX-2 inhibitor treatment

    Measured: 12 months

  4. The volume of distal part of middle finger change after COX-2 inhibitor treatment

    Both left and right fingers were measured twice and the average value was defined as volume of distal part of middle finger

    Measured: 3 months

  5. The volume of distal part of middle finger change after COX-2 inhibitor treatment

    Both left and right fingers were measured twice and the average value was defined as volume of distal part of middle finger

    Measured: 6 months

  6. The volume of distal part of middle finger change after COX-2 inhibitor treatment

    Both left and right fingers were measured twice and the average value was defined as volume of distal part of middle finger

    Measured: 12 months

  7. Circumference of knee joint change after COX-2 inhibitor treatment

    During the circumference of knee joint (CKJ) assessment, the patient was standing straight and the knee was extended as much as possible. The tester stood closest to the examined leg and used a tape to measure the circumference just at the base of the patella. Both legs were measured twice and the average value was used as CKJ.

    Measured: 3 months

  8. Circumference of knee joint change after COX-2 inhibitor treatment

    During the circumference of knee joint (CKJ) assessment, the patient was standing straight and the knee was extended as much as possible. The tester stood closest to the examined leg and used a tape to measure the circumference just at the base of the patella. Both legs were measured twice and the average value was used as CKJ.

    Measured: 6 months

  9. Circumference of knee joint change after COX-2 inhibitor treatment

The tester stood closest to the examined leg and used a tape to measure the circumference just at the base of the patella. Both legs were measured twice and the average value was used as CKJ.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing COX-2 inhibitor in people with Primary Hypertrophic Osteoarthropathy, run by Peking Union Medical College Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 4 inclusion and 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 May 2015. 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 China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Weibo Xia, MD (86-10-6915-5076, xiaweibo@medmail.com.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Prostaglandin E2(PGE2) level change after COX-2 inhibitor treatment in PHO patients (time frame: 3 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?
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 May 2015.
