Celebrex
Approved for Ankylosing Spondylitis
Celebrex - Approved for Ankylosing Spondylitis; Warnings Updated On
Label. Celebrex (celecoxib) has been approved by the U.S. Food and
Drug Administration for relief of the signs and symptoms associated with
ankylosing spondylitis. This latest use of Celebrex is the sixth
approved indication for Celebrex in the United States. The other
indications for Celebrex include the treatment of osteoarthritis, adult
rheumatoid arthritis, acute pain, menstrual pain, and as a treatment for
familial adenomatous polyposis.
Pfizer, the maker of Celebrex, also announced the FDA has finalized the
prescribing instructions, or label, for Celebrex for all approved uses,
including additional warnings about potential cardiovascular and
gastrointestinal risks. Read more news about the Celebrex from Pfizer.
Pfizer - Celebrex News
Pfizer Inc said today that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has
approved the company's selective COX-2 inhibitor Celebrex (celecoxib)
for the relief of the signs and symptoms associated with ankylosing
spondylitis, a form of arthritis that affects the spine. Celebrex
continues to be an important treatment option for patients suffering
from the pain of osteoarthritis and adult rheumatoid arthritis, acute
pain, menstrual pain, and as a treatment for familial adenomatous
polyposis, a rare condition that leads to colon cancer.
Pfizer has accumulated extensive clinical data relating to Celebrex over
the past ten years involving more than 40,000 patients worldwide. As
expected, the FDA also finalized the prescribing instructions, or label,
for Celebrex for all approved uses, including additional warnings about
potential cardiovascular and gastrointestinal risks. The FDA also will
require similar warnings for other older arthritis treatments like
ibuprofen and naproxen.
Ankylosing spondylitis, which affects over 400,000 Americans, becomes
the sixth approved indication for Celebrex in the United States. Unlike
other forms of arthritis that typically affect older people, ankylosing
spondylitis usually strikes between the ages of 17 and 35. Approximately
as common as rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis also can cause
inflammation, pain and stiffness in other areas of the body such as the
shoulders, knees, hips, ribs, and feet.
"With this new indication, Celebrex offers physicians a new treatment
option for this difficult-to-treat patient population," said Dr. Joseph
Feczko, Pfizer's chief medical officer. "The inflammation associated
with ankylosing spondylitis can cause such severe pain that people who
suffer from this condition—often young men—cannot perform even simple,
everyday activities like walking and may have trouble attending school
or work."
As anticipated, the final label contains a boxed warning of potential
cardiovascular and gastrointestinal risks for Celebrex that will be
consistent with warnings for other prescription pain relievers,
including older, commonly used medicines like ibuprofen and naproxen.
This addition follows a February 2005 meeting of an FDA advisory panel,
which conducted a rigorous scientific review of selective and
non-selective pain relievers. The panel recommended that stronger
warnings be added to all selective COX-2 pain medicines as well as to
the older, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as
ibuprofen and naproxen. In addition, the panel recommended avoiding
usage of all NSAIDs and Cox-2 selective medicines to treat the acute
pain associated with heart by-pass surgery.
"We have worked closely with the FDA to ensure that Celebrex's label
provides physicians and patients with the information they need to make
the most appropriate and most informed treatment decisions," Dr. Feczko
said.
