Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This multi-center observational Registry will collect long-term safety data on patients treated with celecoxib or non-selective nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (nsNSAIDs) as used in clinical practice for the treatment of Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA).

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase

Detailed Description

None Study has been terminated early (LSLV = 09Jan2012) due to release of the postmarketing commitment by the US FDA. The study was stopped for futility/change in treatment paradigm that minimizes chronic NSAID use and not for safety concerns.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) [Baseline up to 2 years]

    Counts of participants who had treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), defined as newly occurring or worsening after first dose. Participants with multiple occurrences of an AE within a category were counted once within the category. AEs attributed to the NSAID (celecoxib or nsNSAID) utilized at time of event, regardless of the initial NSAID treatment at Registry entry.

  2. JIA Concomitant Medications [Year 2 or early termination]

    JIA medications by class: GI protective agents (eg, proton-pump inhibitors, antacids, surcalfate), other GI, DMARDs, biologics, antihypertensives, NSAIDs (Celecoxib, Diclofenac, Ibuprofen, Meloxicam, Naproxen, other NSAIDs), corticosteroids (oral, IV, intra-articular, other forms), analgesics Acetaminophen, Opioids, other). Participants could receive more than 1 medication.
