OXN PR Compared to OXY PR in Subjects With Postoperative Pain After Knee Arthroplasty (OXN4505)

February 15, 2012 updated by: Mundipharma Oy

A Randomised, Double-blind, Parallel Group Multicentre Study to Demonstrate Non-inferiority of the Analgesic Efficacy of Oxycodone/Naloxone 10/5 or 20/10 mg Prolonged Release Tablets (OXN PR) BID Compared to Oxycodone 10 or 20 mg Prolonged Release Tablets (OXY PR) BID in Subjects With Postoperative Pain After Knee Arthroplasty

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that treatment with OXN PR tablets is non inferior to treatment with OXY PR tablets in terms of analgesic efficacy in patients with postoperative pain after knee arthroplasty based on average pain intensity scores.

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.

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

18 years to 75 years (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mean of 4 NRS Scores for 24 Hour Pain Intensity at Rest, Shown as Absolute Change From Baseline (i.e. a Decrease From the Baseline Value)
Time Frame: Mean of 24 hour pain intensity (absolute change from baseline)
The primary efficacy variable was the 24hr pain intensity score at rest, on a Numerical Rating Scale (NRS), with "0" = "no pain" and "10" = "worst possible pain". This was assessed 1 hour after dosing on Day 1 (evening only), Day 2(morning and evening) and Day 3 (morning only). The primary efficacy end point (absolute change from baseline) was analysed on the per protocol (PP) data. The mean of these scores is shown as a value that is a mean change (a decrease in pain score) from the baseline value.
Mean of 24 hour pain intensity (absolute change from baseline)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mean Dose (mg) of Rescue Analgesia for the Treatment Phase for Subjects Taking 20/10mg OXN PR Tablets or 20mg OXY PR Tablets
Time Frame: Mean dose during the whole double blind treatment phase (2.5 days)
To compare the use of rescue analgesia for the 2 groups (OXN 20/10mg tablets and OXY 20mg tablets) during the double blind treatment phase. Rescue medication was given (OXY Immediate Release, 5mg capsules) if the subjects pain score on the (Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain)), was greater than or equal to 4. The value presented is the mean dose over the double blind phase.
