Safety and Efficacy of Tegaserod in Opioid-induced Constipation in Patients With Non-cancer Pain.
An Open Label 52-week Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Tegaserod Given Orally for the Treatment of Opioid-induced Constipation (OIC) in Patients With Chronic Non-cancer Pain
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of Tegaserod in opioid-induced constipation in patients with non-cancer pain.
Patients who enter this study PRIOR to the core study (CHTF919N2201) interim analysis receive the treatment as follows:
Patients will be randomly assigned to receive open label tegaserod 6 mg b.i.d. or tegaserod 12 mg o.d. using an allocation ratio of 1:1.
Patients who enter this study AFTER the core study interim analysis receive the treatment as follows:
Patients will be assigned to receive the selected tegaserod dose regimen (as determined by the core study interim analysis) in an open label fashion.

설명
Inclusion Criteria:
- Male and female outpatients 18 years of age or older.
- Patients with chronic non-cancer pain that necessitates the use of non- injectable opioid analgesics.
- Chronic pain which has been present for a minimum of 3 months which needs the chronic use of opioids for pain relief.
- Constipation, according to the investigator's clinical judgment, that is resulting from opioid use for non-cancer chronic pain. Opioid-induced Constipation (OIC) is defined as follows:
less than 3 spontaneous bowel movements per week and at least one of the following on at least 25% of occasions:
- Hard or very hard stools
- sensation of incomplete evacuation
- straining while having a bowel movement
Exclusion Criteria:
- 1. Who are receiving opioids for abdominal pain or connective tissue disorders.
- Planned discontinuation of opioids during the study
- Who underwent major surgery within 3 months prior to screening.
- With a history of prior chronic constipation (CC) that was present for more than three months and that was not related to opioid use.
- With a current diagnosis of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) constipation predominant or alternators.
