Treatment and study plan

Lumiracoxib

Drug

Primary outcomes

  1. Superiority of a single dose of lumiracoxib 400 mg compared to placebo and celecoxib 400 mg based on a Summed (time weighted) Pain Intensity Difference calculated over 0-8 hours post-dose (SPID-8)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Evaluate efficacy of a single dose of lumiracoxib 400 mg compared to placebo and to celecoxib 400 mg in relieving post dental surgery pain with respect to the following secondary efficacy variables:

  2. Time-specific Pain intensity Difference (PID) based on the categorical scale, Pain Relief (PR) based on the categorical scale, and Pain Relief Intensity Difference (PRID) (sum of PID and PR based on categorical scales) at time-points up to 24 hours after

  3. Time-specific PID based on VAS at time-points up to 24 hours after dosing
