Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change From Baseline in Pain on Movement (POM) on Day 5 of Treatment as Assessed by a 100 Millimeter (mm) Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)
The investigator performed a movement of the ankle and the pain assessment was done by the participant using a 100 mm VAS by describing ankle pain on movement. The POM was registered by the participant by drawing a perpendicular line on the 100 mm VAS with anchors at 0 = no pain and 100 = extreme pain. Higher scores indicate a worse outcome. Change from Baseline in POM was calculated by subtracting the Baseline value from the Day 5 value.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Number of Participants With Severity of Adverse Events (AEs) Following Dosing With Study Medication
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of a study product including any washout or lead-in product or investigational assessment, whether or not considered related to the study product. The investigator or medically qualified designee assessed the intensity for each AE reported during the study and categorized it on the basis of severity as Mild (an event that is easily tolerated by the participant, causing minimal discomfort and not interfering with everyday activities), Moderate (an event that is sufficiently discomforting to interfere with normal everyday activities or Severe (an event that prevents normal everyday activities).
Change From Baseline of POM on VAS on Day 3 and Day 8 of Treatment Assessed by 100 mm VAS
The investigator performed a movement of the ankle and the pain assessment was done by the participant using a 100 mm VAS by describing ankle pain on movement. The POM was registered by the participant by drawing a perpendicular line on the 100 mm VAS with anchors at 0 = no pain and 100 = extreme pain. Higher scores indicate a worse outcome. Change from Baseline in POM on Day 3 and Day 8 was calculated by subtracting the Baseline value from the Day 3 and Day 8 values respectively.
Change From Baseline in Tenderness as Measured by Pressure Algometry on Days 3, 5 and 8
'Tenderness' was the sensation of pain expressed by a participant when pressure was applied to the body. Tenderness was measured by calibrated algometers in an area of 1 cm^2 at the center of the injured area. The investigator applied the pressure gauge to the marked tender point of maximum sensitivity by placing the gauge at a 90 degree angle vertical to the skin. The participant was instructed to indicate the onset of pain with a verbal cue such as "Yes" or "Stop". Change from Baseline in tenderness on Day 3, 5 and 8 was calculated by subtracting the Baseline value from the Day 3, Day 5 and Day 8 values respectively
Changes From Baseline in Difference of Tenderness Between Affected Ankle and Contralateral Ankle Measured by Algometry on Days 3, 5 and 8
'Tenderness' was the sensation of pain expressed by a participant when pressure was applied to the body. Tenderness was measured by calibrated algometers in an area of 1 cm^2 at the center of the injured area. The investigator applied the pressure gauge to the marked tender point of maximum sensitivity by placing the gauge at a 90 degree angle vertical to the skin. The participant was instructed to indicate the onset of pain with a verbal cue such as "Yes" or "Stop". Difference in tenderness between affected ankle and contralateral ankle is presented. Change from Baseline in tenderness on Day 3, 5 and 8 was calculated by subtracting the Baseline value from the Day 3, Day 5 and Day 8 values respectively.
Change From Baseline in Ankle Joint Function (Karlsson Scoring Scale) on Days 3, 5 and 8
Ankle Joint Function was assessed by the participants using Karlsson Scoring Scale. The scoring scale measured recovery of ankle joint function after an acute ligament injury. Assessments were made in the following eight categories (score): pain (20), swelling (10), instability (subjective) (15), stiffness (5), stair climbing (10), running (10), work activities (15), and the use of a support device (5). The total score ranges in value from 0 (worst possible score) to 90 (best possible score). Change from Baseline in the ankle joint function on Days 3, 5 and 8 was calculated by subtracting the Baseline value from the Day 3, Day 5 and Day 8 values respectively.
Change From Baseline in Circumference of Affected Ankle (Swelling) as Measured by Figure of Eight Method on Days 3, 5 and 8
Each participant was seated comfortably in a long sitting position with both feet extended beyond the end of the plinth in a slight dorsiflexion position. The Figure of Eight Method was applied to both feet and the tape measure was wrapped around the ankle along the following course: the beginning of the tape was placed midway between the tibialis anterior tendon and lateral malleolus and was then continued across anatomically defined points in the form of a figure of eight around the ankle joint. The tape localization of the first measurement was marked with an appropriate marker. Each ankle was measured three times and the average was calculated. Change from Baseline in circumference on Days 3, 5 and 8 was calculated by subtracting the Baseline value from the Day 3, Day 5 and Day 8 values respectively.
Change From Baseline in Difference of Circumference (Swelling) Between Affected Ankle and Contralateral Ankle by Figure of Eight Method on Days 3, 5 and 8
Each participant was seated comfortably in a long sitting position with both feet extended beyond the end of the plinth in a slight dorsiflexion position. The Figure of Eight Method was applied to both feet and the tape measure was wrapped around the ankle along the following course: the beginning of the tape was placed midway between the tibialis anterior tendon and lateral malleolus and was then continued across anatomically defined points in the form of a figure of eight around the ankle joint. The tape localization of the first measurement was marked with an appropriate marker. Each ankle was measured three times and the average was calculated. Difference of circumference (swelling) between affected ankle and contralateral ankle is presented. Change from Baseline in circumference on Days 3, 5 and 8 was calculated by subtracting the Baseline value from the Day 3, Day 5 and Day 8 values respectively.
Sum of Pain Intensity Difference (SPID) From 0 to 24 Hours Post First Dose (Day 1) and From 96 to 120 Hours Post First Dose (Day 5)
Pain intensity was assessed in the diary on a categorical scale ranging from 0 to 3, where 0 = no pain, 1 = mild pain, 2 = moderate pain, 3 = severe pain. A higher value indicates more severe pain. Pain intensity was assessed at Baseline (immediately prior to first dose) and every 2 hours (after starting study product) until the participant went to bed on the evening of Day 1. The same assessment and recording frequency were also followed starting with the first dose on Day 5.
Total Pain Relief (TOTPAR) From 0 to 24 Hours Post First Dose (Day 1) and From 96 to 120 Hours Post First Dose (Day 5)
Pain relief was assessed in the diary on a categorical scale ranging from 0 to 4, where 0 = no relief, 1 = a little relief, 2 = some relief, 3 = a lot of relief, 4 = complete relief. A higher value indicates greater pain relief. Pain relief was assessed at Baseline (immediately prior to first dose) and every 2 hours (after starting study product) until the participant went to bed on the evening of Day 1. The same assessment and recording frequency were also followed starting with the first dose on Day 5.
Mean Number of Rescue Medication Tablets Used to Treat Ankle Pain
Participants were instructed to take only the rescue medication provided for pain in the ankle or any other pain (for example, headache) or fever (for example, due to common cold) they experienced during the trial. One tablet was taken, repeated after at least 4 hours, if needed, up to a maximum of 2000 milligram (mg) (4 tablets) per day. No rescue medication was allowed within 6 hours prior to the study visits or within 12 hours of study Visit 3.
Number of Days on Which Rescue Medication Was Used to Treat Ankle Pain
Data was not estimable as end date data for rescue medication use was not collected.

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of diclofenac diethylamine 2.32 percent (%) gel applied twice daily versus diclofenac diethylamine 1.16% gel applied four times daily for 7 days in participants with acute ankle sprain.
Detailed Description
This study is a Phase III, randomized, double blind, multi-center, active controlled, 2-treatment arm, parallel group, non-inferiority study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of diclofenac diethylamine 2.32% gel applied twice daily versus diclofenac diethylamine 1.16% gel applied four times daily for 7 days in participants with acute ankle sprain. The participants who experience an acute Grade I -II ankle sprain within the past 24 hours, and pain on movement of at least 50 millimeter (mm) on a 100 mm visual analogue scale (VAS) and who will meet all inclusion and exclusion criteria will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio, immediately post injury. All participants will receive 4 tubes of study drug, for treatment in morning, noon, late afternoon, and late evening, respectively. The very first dose of study drug will be applied at the study center. The participants will be instructed to apply the gel topically with the finger tips for approximately 1 minute in the morning, at noon, late afternoon, and late evening for 7 days. Each tube will be labeled for use at one of these 4 times. After the randomization visit (Visit 1/baseline visit- Day 1), participants will return to the study site for post baseline visits- Visit 2 (Day 3), Visit 3 (Day 5), and Visit 4 (Day 8 +/- 1 d) to complete efficacy and safety assessments. Baseline safety laboratory test blood samples will be taken at Visit 1. End of study safety laboratory tests will be performed at Visit 4, or in case of early termination on the day of termination. In addition, the participants (ex-clinic) will assess pain intensity and pain relief at frequent intervals on Day 1 and then at each study drug application throughout the rest of the study.
