3D1002 in Combination With Oxycodone Hydrochloride Sustained-release Tablets in Patients With Moderate to Severe Cancer Pain

March 9, 2026 updated by: 3D Medicines

A Multicenter, Randomized, Phase IIa/IIb Clinical Trial of 3D1002 Combined With Oxycodone Hydrochloride Sustained-release Tablets in the Treatment of Patients With Moderate to Severe Cancer Pain

This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 3D1002 alone or in combination with oxycodone hydrochloride sustained-release tablets (OxyContin) for the management of moderate or severe cancer pain.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The investigational product in this study, 3D1002, is a selective antagonist of prostaglandin E2 receptor subtype 4 (EP4). The study is composed of two stages. Phase IIa stage is to assess the safety and efficacy of 3D1002 administered at doses of 50, 100 or 150 mg every 12 hour (q12h) for patients with moderate to severe cancer pain, and to determine the optimal recommended dose for further studies. Phase IIb stage is to evaluate the difference in the efficacy and safety of 3D1002 combined with OxyContin and OxyContin alone in treatment of patients with moderate to severe cancer pain.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
