Conditions

Arthritis, Gouty

Brief summary

This is a multicenter, double-blind, double-dummy, randomized, active-controlled study that will include an 8-day treatment period followed by a 1-week follow-up period in patients experiencing symptoms of an acute exacerbation of gouty arthritis.

Interventions

DRUGIndomethacin

indomethacin 50 mg three times a day (TID) for 8 days.

DRUGCelecoxib

An initial dose of celecoxib 800 mg followed by a second dose of 400 mg 12 hours later on Day 1 (celecoxib 800/400 mg regimen) and continuing 400 mg two times a day (BID) for 7 days.

Inclusion criteria

* Acute gouty arthritis meeting the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria for acute arthritis of primary gout; * Onset of pain from an acute gouty arthritis attack within 48 hours prior to Screening/Baseline (Visit 1); * A rating of moderate, severe, or extreme (2, 3, or 4, respectively) on the Patient's assessment of pain intensity in the index joint (5-point scale:0-4) at Screening/Baseline.

Exclusion criteria

* Diagnosis of any other type of arthritis including those types suspected of being infectious in origin in the index joint or presence of any acute trauma of the index joint. Patients with osteoarthritis will be included as long as it is mild or moderate (according to investigator's criteria) and it does not affect the index joint; * Acute polyarticular gout involving greater than 4 joints or chronic gout.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change From Baseline to Day 2 in Patient's Assessment of Pain IntensityBaseline and Day 2The Patient's Pain Intensity in the Index Joint for the prior 24 hours was assessed by completion of the following 5 point scale: My pain over the past 24 hours has been: None (0), Mild (1), Moderate (2), Severe (3), or Extreme (4).

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change From Baseline in Physician's Assessment of the Index Joint on Days 5, 9, and 14/Early Termination: TendernessBaseline, Day 5, Day 9, and Day 14/Early TerminationTenderness was assessed on the basis of palpation or passive motion using a 4 point scale with the following ratings: the patient had no tenderness (0), the patient complained of pain (1), the patient complained of pain and winced (2) and the patient complained of pain, winced, and withdrew (3).
Change From Baseline in Physician's Assessment of the Index Joint on Days 5, 9, and 14/Early Termination: SwellingBaseline, Days 5, 9 and 14/Early TerminationSwelling was assessed using a 4 point scale with the following ratings: none (0), palpable (1), visible (2), and bulging beyond joint margins (3)

Positive TWA values represent a reduction in pain intensity
Change From Baseline in Patient's Assessment of Pain IntensityBaseline, Day 2 to Day 13The Patient's assessment of pain for the prior 24 hours was assessed by completion of the following 5 point scale: My pain over the past 24 hours has been: None (0), Mild (1), Moderate, (2), Severe (3), and Extreme (4).
Participant's Assessment of Pain Intensity for the Average Pain Intensity at BaselineBaselineThe participant's assessment of pain was assessed by completion of the following 5 point scale: My pain has been: None (0), Mild (1), Moderate, (2), Severe (3), and Extreme (4).
Percentage Change From Baseline in the Patient's Assessment of Pain Intensity for the Average Pain Intensity on Days 2-4, Days 2-8 and Days 2-13Baseline to Day 13The participant's assessment of pain was assessed by completion of the following 5 point scale: My change in pain has been: None (0), Mild (1), Moderate, (2), Severe (3), and Extreme (4). Average change over days was calculated by taking the change from Baseline to the average Pain Intensity score over the days for each patient.
Number of Participants With Withdrawal From Treatment Due to Lack of EfficacyDay 1 to Day 8Withdrawal due to lack of efficacy was assessed from Days 1 to 8
Participants Global Evaluation of Study Medication ScoreDay 9The participant rated the study medication that they received during the study by completing the following question: How would you rate the study medication you received for pain? 4=Excellent, 3=Good, 2=Fair, 1=Poor
Number of Participants With Pre-specified Gastrointestinal (GI) Adverse EventsBaseline to Day 14/Early TerminationThe gastrointestinal tolerability was measured by incidence of moderate or severe GI adverse events (nausea, abdominal pain and dyspepsia)
Number of Participants With Moderate or Severe Central Nervous System (CNS) Adverse EventsBaseline to Day 14/Early TerminationThe pre-specfied CNS AEs were headache, nausea, dizziness, vertigo, vomiting and somnolence.
Number of Participants With ≥30% and ≥50% Reduction From Baseline to Day 2 in Patient's Assessment of Pain IntensityBaseline, Day 2The Patient's assessment of pain was assessed by completion of the following 5 point scale: My pain over the past 24 hours has been: None (0), Mild (1), Moderate, (2), Severe (3), and Extreme (4).

Participant flow

Pre-assignment details

A total of 443 participants were screened, of which 402 participants were assigned to treatment and 400 received treatment. One participant (indomethacin 50 mg) was not treated as they were no longer willing to participate in the study, and one participant (celecoxib 800/400 mg) was not treated due to due to insufficient drug quantity at site.

Change From Baseline in Patient's Assessment of Pain Intensity on Day 1

The patient's assessment of pain was assessed by completion of the following 5 point scale: my pain at this time is none (0), mild (1), moderate, (2), severe (3), and extreme (4).

Time frame: Baseline, 2, 4, 8, 12 hours postdose Day 1, Day 2 (24 hours and 32 hours post first dose)

Population: Intent to treat (defined to be all subjects who were randomized, took at least 1 dose of study medication and had at least one post baseline evaluation, ITT) and LOCF
