Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This is a double-blind (neither the physician nor the patient knows the name of the assigned drug) study evaluating pain relief, safety, and tolerability of a new treatment (JNJ-42160443) for moderate to severe pain of osteoarthritis of the knee in comparison to a standard pain treatment and placebo. The study will last for about 42 weeks. Patients will receive treatment for 16 weeks. Patients who qualify for the study based on their level of pain as well as other factors will receive one of the 4 possible treatments as determined by chance. Before entering the study, patients must stop using their present pain medication. During the study, patients will answer questions about their pain, side effects, and have tests performed to monitor their physical condition. The main purpose of the study is to compare pain relief with JNJ-42160443 to that of a standard pain treatment or placebo. After the treatment period, patients can return to taking the pain medication that they used before the start of the study, and their physical condition will continue to be monitored. JNJ 42160443 10 mg/mL will be provided for use in the study. Patients will receive 1 of 4 treatments for 16 weeks (wks): lower dosage of JNJ 42160443 by subcutaneous (under the skin) (SC) injection once every 4 wks + Placebo (P) capsule orally (by mouth) (PO) 2x/day, higher dosage of JNJ 42160443 by SC injection once every 4 wks + P capsule PO 2x/day, standard pain medication capsule PO 2x/day + P by SC injection once every 4 wks, or P capsule PO 2x/day + P by SC injection once every 4 wks.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Change in the average daily pain intensity
Time Frame: From Baseline to Week 13 (ie, after 12 weeks of treatment)
From Baseline to Week 13 (ie, after 12 weeks of treatment)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Western Ontario and McMaster Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC 3.1) subscales scores
Time Frame: 12 weeks
The WOMAC 3.1 is a multi-dimensional, osteoarthritis specific questionnaire designed to assess clinically important symptoms of the hip and/or knee.
12 weeks
Patient Global Assessment (PGA) scale score
Time Frame: 12 weeks
The PGA is a single item that the patient completes to indicate their perception of their osteoarthritis status, on an 11-point numerical rating scale from 0 (Very Good) to 10 (Very Bad).
