Clinical Trial Summary

To study the safety and efficacy of ARTRA (glucosamine chondroitin sulfate) in the treatment of non-specific low-back pain of lumbosacral localization in ambulatory care.


Clinical Trial Description

We enrolled patients between 40 and 65 years of age who had low back pain for at least 12 weeks with a pain intensity >3 on a 0-10 point visual analogue scale (VAS). Major exclusion criteria were presence of fibromyalgia, degenerative spondylolisthesis, and alcohol and/or drug abuse. All patients were treated with ARTRA (combination of glucosamine hydrochloride 500 mg and chondroitin sulfate 500 mg in tab; Unipharm Inc.) at a dose of 1 tab bid for the first month and then 1 tab daily for the next two months. The primary endpoint was pain intensity (at rest and movement) as measured on a 0-10 point VAS. Secondary endpoints included Oswestry Disability Index, patient global assessment of efficacy (0-5 scale) and NSAID consumption. ;
