Effectiveness Of Single Doses Of Ibuprofen In Patients With Osteoarthritis Of The Knee
A Double-Blind, Randomised, Placebo-Controlled, Cross-Over Pilot Study to Investigate the Efficacy of Ibuprofen in Patients With Osteoarthritis of the Knee Following Administration of a Single Dose

To demonstrate that new drugs work, many complex multidose studies are often required. The intent of this study is to use Ibuprofen as an example of a marketed pain relief drug to validate a simpler single dose model for future assessment of new pain drugs.
