NCT01098747

Brief Summary

This study will compare the pain relieving effect of a single-dose of a novel ibuprofen formulation to placebo and two formulations of standard ibuprofen in the treatment of post-surgical dental pain following "wisdom" tooth (third molar) removal.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Time-weighted Sum of Pain Relief Rating and Pain Intensity Difference From 0-8 Hours (SPRID 0-8)

    SPRID: time-weighted sum of pain relief rating combined with pain intensity difference (PRID) over 8 hours. SPRID 0-8 score range: -8 (worst) to 56 (best). PRID: sum of Pain intensity differences (PID) and pain relief rating (PRR) at each time point. PRID score range: -1=worst to 7=best. PID: baseline pain severity score minus pain severity score at a given time point (pain severity score range 0=none to 3=severe; baseline score range 2=moderate to 3=severe). PID score range: -1(worst) to 3 (best). PRR: assessed on 5-point pain relief rating scale (0=No relief to 4=Complete relief).

    0 to 8 hours

  • Time to Onset of Meaningful Relief

    Participants evaluated the time to meaningful relief by stopping a second stopwatch labeled 'meaningful relief' at the moment they first began to experience meaningful relief. Stopwatch was active up to 8 hours after dosing or until stopped by the participant, or rescue medication was administered.

    0 to 8 hours

Secondary Outcomes (13)

  • Time to Confirmed First Perceptible Relief

    0 to 8 hours

  • Pain Relief Rating (PRR)

    0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 hours

  • Pain Intensity Difference (PID)

    0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 hours

  • Sum of Pain Relief Rating and Pain Intensity Difference (PRID)

    0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 hours

  • Time-weighted Sum of Pain Intensity Difference (SPID)

    0-2, 0-3, 0-6, 0-8 hours

  • +8 more secondary outcomes

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Normal, healthy males and females 16 to 40 years of age
  • Outpatients who have moderate to severe post-operative pain (confirmed by a Visual Analog Scale-Pain Severity Rating \[VAS-PSR\] score of at least 50 mm on a 100 mm VAS-PSR) following surgical extraction of two or more third molars, at least one of which must be a partial or complete bony mandibular impaction
  • Use of only the following pre-operative medication(s)/anesthetic(s): topical benzocaine, a short acting parenteral (local) anesthetic (mepivacaine or lidocaine) with or without vasoconstrictor and/or nitrous oxide

You may not qualify if:

  • Alcohol or substance abuse
  • Any serious medical or psychiatric disorder
  • History of stomach ulcers, stomach bleed, or other bleeding disorders
  • Use of a prescription or over-the-counter drug with which administration of ibuprofen or any other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, acetaminophen, or hydrocodone is contraindicated (including: opioids, antipsychotics, antianxiety agents, or other central nervous system depressants\[including alcohol\])
