Video Capsule Endoscopy to Investigate the Safety and Tolerability of Lumiracoxib in the Small Bowel

A 16-Day, Randomized, Double-Blind, Double-Dummy, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group Trial Comparing Lumiracoxib 100mg o.d. With Naproxen 500 mg b.i.d. Plus Omeprazole 20mg o.d. and Placebo in Healthy Volunteers to Investigate on the Safety and Tolerability of Lumiracoxib in the Small Bowel.
