Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This is a Phase 3, randomized, double blind, multicenter study to evaluate the analgesic efficacy and safety of a single intra-articular dose of F14 (625 mg sustained release celecoxib) administered concurrent with multimodal analgesia in patients undergoing total knee replacement surgery, compared to multimodal analgesia alone.

  • Absence of moderate to severe fixed flexion deformity

  • Absence of moderate to severe varus or valgus deformity

  • Minimum pre-operative flexion arc of 100 degrees

  • Unwilling or unable to discontinue opioid analgesics at least 7 days prior to surgery

  • Has an allergy or contraindication to opioids or NSAIDs or acetaminophen

  • Active or past infection in the index knee

  • Total or partial knee arthroplasty in the contralateral knee < 6 months prior to study surgery

  • Documented osteonecrosis within previous 12 months

  • Prior or current presence of hardware in index knee other than screws from previous ligament repair that do not require manipulation or removal for TKR surgery

  • Other planned major surgery within 12 months of study surgery

  • Concurrent painful physical condition that is unrelated to the study knee (e.g., back, shoulder or contralateral knee pain) that will require analgesic treatment, such as NSAIDs or opioids, during study follow-up

  • Current NRS pain intensity in the contralateral knee with a severity ≥ 4

  • Current or historical evidence of any clinically significant disease or condition, especially cardiovascular, pulmonary or neurological, that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may increase the risk of surgery or complicate or affect the subject's study follow-up

  • Suspected opioid abuse in the last 12 months with a score exceeding 5 on the DAST-10 questionnaire, and/or taking opioids ≥ 46 of the previous 90 days, and currently taking >90 mg in morphine milligram equivalents (MME) at least 5 days per week in the month prior to screening.
