February 3, 2017 updated by: Novartis Pharmaceuticals

A 4-week, Multicentre, Randomized, Double-blind, Double-dummy, Parallel Group Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring Study to Investigate Whether Treatment With Lumiracoxib 100 mg Once Daily Results in an Improved 24-hour Blood Pressure Profile Compared to Ibuprofen 600 mg Three Times a Day in Osteoarthritis Patients With Controlled Hypertension

This study will investigate the effect on ambulatory blood pressure of lumiracoxib 100 mg once daily versus ibuprofen 600 mg three times a day in osteoarthritis patients with controlled hypertension.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Assessment of the 24-hour systolic BP profile of lumiracoxib 100 mg o.d. in comparison to ibuprofen 600 mg t.i.d. after 4 weeks of treatment.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Assessment of the effect of lumiracoxib 100 mg o.d. on diastolic BP derived from ABPM after 4 weeks of treatment in comparison to ibuprofen 600 mg t.i.d.
Assessment of the effect of lumiracoxib 100 mg o.d. on daytime and nighttime BP (systolic and diastolic) derived from ABPM after 4 weeks of treatment in comparison to ibuprofen 600 mg t.i.d.
Assessment of the effect of lumiracoxib 100 mg o.d. on the incidence of significant increases in ABP in comparison to ibuprofen 600 mg t.i.d.
Exploratory analysis of the effect of lumiracoxib 100 mg o.d. on the incidence of uncontrolled hypertension in comparison to ibuprofen 600 mg t.i.d.
Exploratory analysis of the effect of lumiracoxib 100 mg o.d. on the ABPM profile between 0 and 4 hours after morning dose in comparison to ibuprofen 600 mg t.i.d.
