Identifying predictors of placebo response in osteoarthritis clinical trials of three agents with different routes of delivery: a meta-analysis using individual patient data.
8:45amLocation: 2019 Osteoarthritis Research Society International (OARSI) World Congress, Toronto, Canada.Most drug treatments for osteoarthritis (OA) do not achieve a minimum clinically important difference above placebo and often associate with side-effects. On average, 75% of the analgesic effect from OA treatments in clinical trials, and potentially in clinical practice, can be attributed to placebo/contextual response, though the magnitude of this response may vary greatly between patients. Here I will present results from an individual patient data (IPD) meta-analysis of three contrasting treatments for OA to identify placebo responders and the potential determinants of the placebo response in OA.
