Fentanyl Sublingual Spray for the Treatment of Acute Procedure-related Pain in a Monitored Setting

January 2, 2018 updated by: INSYS Therapeutics Inc

A Pilot, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Single-center Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of SUBSYS™ (Fentanyl Sublingual Spray) for the Treatment of Acute Procedure-related Pain in a Monitored Setting

Participants will be selected from patients who have been scheduled at the site for treatment of chronic pain without sedation. They will receive either fentanyl sublingual spray or a matching placebo sublingual spray that delivers no medication.

Participants may take pain killers at any time after the procedure for pain relief. They will be given a diary card, which they will take home. They will record the name of the medication taken, the time, and dosage.

The study coordinator will call participants about 24 hours after the procedure to collect information from the diary card and follow up information about pain and side effects (adverse events) after they left the site.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Withdrawn

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

Participants will be separated into opioid-experienced and opioid-naïve groups. Participants in each group will be randomly allocated in a 3:1 ratio to receive fentanyl sublingual spray (FSS) or a matching placebo sublingual spray (PSS) 10 minutes before the scheduled procedure. Based on FDA guidelines, opioid-experienced FSS participants will receive FSS 400 µg, and opioid-naïve FSS participants will be further randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either 100 µg or 200 µg. All participants randomized to placebo receive the same matching PSS, regardless of opioid experience. Pain and sedation will be recorded multiple times during the scheduled procedure. If rescue medication is needed during the procedure, local anesthetic standard of care for the procedure will be administered and recorded in the study record. Efficacy and safety/tolerability of fentanyl sublingual spray will be evaluated among and between the treatment groups.

Study Type

Study Type

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

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Has scheduled an interventional procedure for treatment of pain without sedation
  • Has cleared pre-operative assessment
  • Is able to read or understand informed consent form, and gives consent to participate in the study

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Is taking any form of fentanyl
  • Has oral pathology that would prevent effective absorption of study medication
  • Was treated with an investigational drug within protocol-specified parameters
  • Has signs, symptoms or history of any condition that, per protocol or in the opinion of the investigator, might compromise: 1) the safety or well-being of the participant or study staff, 2) the safety or well-being of the participant's offspring (such as through pregnancy or breast-feeding), 3) the analysis of results

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
Time Frame
Pain scored on a scale from 0 to 10, where 0 = no pain and 10 = the most intense pain imaginable
Time Frame: within 24 hours
within 24 hours

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
Time Frame
Sedation scored on a scale from 0 to 4, where 0 = awake/alert and 4 = unarousable
Time Frame: within 24 hours
within 24 hours
