    Area of Science:

    • Rheumatology
    • Pharmacology

    Background:

    • Osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent degenerative joint disease requiring effective pain management.
    • Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly prescribed for OA symptom relief.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To compare the efficacy and patient preference of benoxaprofen against established NSAIDs in osteoarthritis management.
    • To evaluate benoxaprofen's effectiveness in a real-world general practice setting.

    Main Methods:

    • A multicentre, comparative crossover study design was employed.
    • General practitioners in the UK recruited patients diagnosed with osteoarthritis, confirmed by rheumatologists.
    • Patients were randomly assigned to receive either benoxaprofen or one of four comparator NSAIDs (diclofenac, indomethacin, flurbiprofen, piroxicam) for four weeks.

    Main Results:

    • Data from 1403 completed cases were analyzed.
    • Patients reported a significant preference for benoxaprofen compared to all comparator drugs.
    • This suggests a favorable patient-reported outcome for benoxaprofen in OA treatment.

    Conclusions:

    • Benoxaprofen demonstrated superior patient preference in the treatment of osteoarthritis compared to diclofenac, indomethacin, flurbiprofen, and piroxicam.
    • The findings support benoxaprofen as a potentially preferred option for osteoarthritis management based on patient experience.
