About this study

Official title: Effects of Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drug (NSAID) on Inflammatory Lesion of Axial Spondyloarthritis Results From MRI Finding

Axial Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is a kind of inflammatory arthritis which includes ankylosing spondylitis. Common symptoms of axial SpA are inflammatory back pain, morning stiffness, peripheral arthritis, enthesitis. Controlling aforementioned symptoms are one of the goal in treatment, and another goal is preventing bony ankylosis of axial skeleton such as spine. Ankylosis can limit range of motion and lower the quality of life.

Non-steroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID) and Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-a inhibitor are the current treatment options for axial SpA. These medications can improve pain and stiffness of axial SpA patients, however preventing bony ankylosis is not proven. Current study showed attenuating inflammation at early stage could prevent further bony destruction and ankylosis in axial SpA. Present study is designed to discover the therapeutic effect of NSAID whether NSAID could recover the early inflammatory bony change (bone marrow edema at MRI) and prevent further bony change.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Celecoxib in people with Spondylarthropathies and Magnetic Resonance Imaging, run by Armed Forces Capital Hospital, Republic of Korea at 1 site in South Korea.

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 3 inclusion and 5 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 6 Jun 2018. 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 South Korea. 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?

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?

Spondyloarthritis Research Consortium of Canada (SPARCC) MRI score of sacroiliac joint (time frame: Baseline, 6 weeks after, 12 weeks after). 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 6 Jun 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
