Primary outcomePrimary: Change From Baseline in Time Weighted Average (TWA) Pain Intensity (PI) on a Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) Due to Self-paced Walks on Day 3 — -0.927; -1.54; -1.73 units on a scale — p=0.089
Summary
This study will evaluate a walking model of osteoarthritis for use in testing of new therapeutic agents. The primary hypothesis is that participants treated with Naproxen or Ultracet will have lower Pain Intensity (PI) than those treated with Placebo during self-paced walks on Day 3 of treatment.
