简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine if two sustained released formulations of carisoprodol are more effective than placebo.
详细描述
Methodology:
This will be a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study in subjects 18-70 years of age with acute, painful, muscle spasm of the lower back. The study consists of a baseline screening (Study Day 1), during which subjects will be evaluated for inclusion/exclusion criteria, and a 7-day double-blind treatment period (Study Day 1 through Study Day 7). Subjects will be randomly assigned to be dosed twice daily with one of the following double-blind treatments: SR carisoprodol 500-mg tablets, SR carisoprodol 700-mg tablets, or placebo.
Subjects will be evaluated in the clinic on Study Days 1, 3 and 7. Subjects who remain symptomatic on Study Day 7 will be allowed to continue in the study for a 7-day, double-blind extension period at the discretion of the Investigator. Subjects will be contacted by telephone for a safety follow-up 7 days after the last dose of study medication.
A pharmacokinetic (PK) substudy will be conducted at selected sites. These sites will obtain blood samples for PK analysis at the end of the 7-day treatment period and the 14-day treatment period, if applicable.

主要结局
Subject Rated Change Relief From Starting Backache of Pain on a 100-point Visual Analog Scale
时间窗: baseline to 14 days
on a visual analog scale of 0 to 100 millimeters(mm) with 0 being no pain and 100 being maximum pain By measuring the amount of pain before and during treatment done at each visit and recording the difference in mm.During treatment scores were averaged and this average was compared to the baseline value.
次要结局
