January 13, 2017 updated by: National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA)

CS1008A Efficacy/Safety Trial of Buprenorphine/Naloxone

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of a buprenorphine/naloxone sublingual tablet formulation as an office-based therapy for opiate-dependence treatment.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This multicenter pivotal clinical trial was comprised of two phases. The first phase, which was four weeks in length, was double-blind placebo controlled and was primarily used to evaluate the efficacy of buprenorphine/naloxone. The second phase, lasting 48 weeks, was primarily conducted to determine the safety of buprenorphine/naloxone.

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

23 years to 59 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. DSM-IV (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of the American Psychiatric Association) diagnosis of current opiate dependence.
  2. Individuals seeking opiate-substitution pharmacotherapy for opiate dependence.
  3. Males and non-pregnant, non-nursing females, 18 to 59 years of age (inclusive).
  4. Individuals able to give informed consent and willing to comply with all study procedures (e.g., providing of urine samples under observation, completing questionnaires).

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Any acute or chronic medical condition that would make participation in the study medically hazardous (e.g., acute hepatitis, unstable cardiovascular, hepatic, or renal disease, unstable diabetes, symptomatic AIDS; not HIV-seropositivity alone).
  2. Aspartate or alanine aminotransferase (AST, ALT) levels greater than three times the upper limit of normal.
  3. Individuals currently taking systemic anti-retroviral or anti-fungal therapy.
  4. Current dependence (by DSM-IV criteria) on any psychoactive substance other than opiates, caffeine, or nicotine.
  5. Current, primary, Axis I psychiatric diagnosis other than opiate, caffeine, or nicotine dependence.

  6. Females of childbearing potential who do not agree to use a medically acceptable method of birth control. Acceptable methods include

    1. oral contraceptive,
    2. barrier (diaphragm or condom) - a spermicide is not required due to the possibility of local irritation and allergic type reactions, but are recommended for use,
    3. levonorgestrel implant,
    4. intrauterine progesterone contraceptive system,
    5. medroxyprogesterone acetate contraceptive injection, or
    6. complete abstinence.
  7. Enrollment in an opiate-substitution (i.e., methadone, levo-alpha-acetylmethadol) treatment program within 45 days of enrolling in the present study.
  8. Individuals having taken (licitly or illicitly) LAAM, methadone, or naltrexone within days of enrolling in the present study.
  9. Individuals having taken buprenorphine, other than as an analgesic, within 365 days of enrolling in the present study.
  10. Participation in an investigational drug or device study within 45 days of enrolling in the present study.
  11. Anyone, who in the opinion of site principal investigator, would not be expected to complete the first phase of the study protocol (e.g., due to pending incarceration or probable relocation from the clinic area).

Study Major Dates

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
November 1, 1996

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
