Safety of Buprenorphine Transdermal Patch (BTDS) in Osteoarthritis Pain: a 52-Week Extension Phase

September 5, 2012 updated by: Purdue Pharma LP

A Randomized, Double-blind, Multicenter, Active Comparator Study to Determine the Efficacy and Safety of BTDS 20 or OxyIR® Versus BTDS 5 in Subjects With Moderate to Severe Osteoarthritis (OA) Pain: A 52-Week Extension Phase

The purpose of this phase is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of BTDS. Qualified subjects are started on BTDS 5 and the dose may be titrated, if necessary, to a maximum of BTDS 20 to achieve stable pain control.

Study Overview

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

Buprenorphine is a synthetic opioid analgesic with over 25 years of international clinical experience indicating it to be safe and effective in a variety of therapeutic situations for the relief of moderate to severe pain.

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

40 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects who completed all visits of the double-blind phase on study drug and subjects who discontinued study drug due to lack of therapeutic effect in the double-blind phase but completed all visits of the double-blind phase off study drug are eligible to enroll in the extension phase.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects who prematurely discontinue study drug in the double-blind phase due to adverse event, subject's choice, administrative reason or lost to follow-up are NOT eligible to enter the extension phase
  • Subjects with electrocardiograms (ECGs) that show any QT data corrected for heart rate using Fridericia formula (QTcF) interval ≥ 500 millisecond (msec) will be discontinued from the extension phase.
  • Subjects requiring long-acting opioid analgesics (once- or twice-daily dosing with an every (q) 24 hour (h) or q12h drug) or transdermal fentanyl during the extension phase should be discontinued from the study.

Refer to core study for additional inclusion/exclusion information.

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.

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.
