- Time frame of 4-21 days post-trauma
- Motor complete injury AIS A and B
- Neurological level of the lesion C4-T4
- No participation in a different clinical trial according to German Pharmaceuticals Act (AMG) 1 month before and during participation in the current trial
- The patient has been informed and his/her written consent has been obtained
- Age: 18 to 65 years

- Penetrating spinal cord injury
- Accompanying traumatic brain injury (TBI) with visible structural lesions including intracranial hemorrhage on diagnostic imagesSigni
- Significant accompanying injury to the peripheral nervous system, particularly plexus lesions
- Acute or chronic systemic diseases accompanied by neurological deficits or that have caused permanent neurological deficits which may overlay or hinder the registration of sensomotor functions (e.g. multiple sclerosis, Guillain-Barré syndrome, HIV infection, Lues etc.)
- Malignant neoplasms, except if these are in complete remission.
- Mental diseases or dementia which, in the investigator's opinion, limit the patient's cooperation in respect of the intake of the study medication and/or significantly hinder the registration of follow-up parameters
- Hemophilia
- History of myocardial infarction or stroke
- Current and persistent misuse of illegal drugs or alcohol
- Hypothermia below 35 C°

- All further contraindications to the study medication, including other ingredients of the pharmaceutical form according to the Summary of Product Characteristics (SPC)
- Known hypersensitivity to the active substance contained in the concomitant medication Pantoprazole or one of the components of the drug.
- Intake of Ibuprofen or intake of other active substances from the group of Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs; e.g., Diclofenac, Indometacin) or the intake of NSAIDs in maximum recommended daily doses during one week prior to enrolment in the trial
- Simultaneous intake of salicylates, particularly acetylsalicylic acid
- Simultaneous intake of oral anticoagulants
- Simultaneous intake of systemic glucocorticoids
- Unwilling to consent to storage and transfer of pseudonymized medical data for the purpose of the clinical trial

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Active Comparator: Dolormin® extra (Ibuprofen) 4 weeks
|
Ibuprofen Tablets (as lysine-salt) 2400mg/d (400mg 2-2-2) applied orally for 4 weeks (Arm I; n=6). In order to reduce the risk of damage to the gastrointestinal mucosa Pantoprazole is applied as concomitant medication in a dosage 40mg/d during the treatment period.
Other Names:
Ibuprofen Tablets (as lysine-salt) 2400mg/d (400mg 2-2-2) applied orally for 12 weeks (Arm II, n=6). In order to reduce the risk of damage to the gastrointestinal mucosa Pantoprazole is applied as concomitant medication in a dosage 40mg/d during the first 4 weeks of treatment and may be reduced to 20mg/d during the following treatment period after individual risk-benefit assessment.
