Primary Outcome Measures:

To characterize the 24-hour arterial blood pressure profile of naproxcinod, compared to naproxen as measured by ABPM, through assessing the mean change from baseline in patients with OA and controlled essential hypertension. [ Time Frame: 15 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:

To characterize the 24-hour arterial blood pressure profile of naproxcinod compared to ibuprofen as measured by ABPM, through assessing the mean change from baseline in patients with osteoarthritis and controlled essential hypertension. [ Time Frame: 15 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
To assess the general safety and tolerability of naproxcinod compared to naproxen and ibuprofen. [ Time Frame: 15 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Estimated Enrollment:	300

Detailed Description:

This is a 16-week, randomized, double-blind, multicenter study comparing the effect of naproxcinod, naproxen, and ibuprofen on 24 hour arterial blood pressure profile. Patients will be randomly allocated to naproxcinod 375mg, naproxcinod 750mg, naproxen 250mg, naproxen 500mg, or ibuprofen 600mg in a 1:1:1:1:1 ratio.
