- Osteoarthritis, Knee
- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT03570554
- Lead Sponsor
- Bayer
- Brief Summary
Osteoarthritis is a common, chronic, progressive, skeletal, degenerative disorder that frequently affects several joints such as knee, hip, spine and hands.This placebo-controlled clinical trial assessed the effects of naproxen sodium, acetaminophen and celecoxib on stiffness in subjects with osteoarthritis.
- Detailed Description
The primary objective of the study was to assess the responsiveness of the Brief Arthritis Stiffness Scale (BASS) for detecting treatment effects of common over-the-counter (OTC) analgesics and a common prescription analgesic in subjects with knee osteoarthritis.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Sum of Change in Brief Arthritis Stiffness Scale (BASS) Scores Over the 4-day Treatment Period 4 days Brief Arthritis Stiffness Scale (BASS) is a patient-reported outcome (PRO) instrument measuring of the severity of osteoarthritis-related stiffness in the target knee joint. The BASS score ranges from 0 to 40 and a higher score indicates worse stiffness. This endpoint was calculated by summing the changes from baseline (CFB) in BASS scores at Days 2, 3, and 4 of the treatment periods.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Absolute Brief Arthritis Stiffness Scale (BASS) Score at Each Time Point 4 days Brief Arthritis Stiffness Scale (BASS) is a patient-reported outcome (PRO) instrument measuring of the severity of osteoarthritis-related stiffness in the target knee joint. The BASS score ranges from 0 to 40 and a higher score indicates worse stiffness.
Change From Baseline in Brief Arthritis Stiffness Scale (BASS) Score at Day 4 Day 4 Brief Arthritis Stiffness Scale (BASS) is a patient-reported outcome (PRO) instrument measuring of the severity of osteoarthritis-related stiffness in the target knee joint. The BASS score ranges from 0 to 40 and a higher score indicates worse stiffness.
