Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The objective of this study is to demonstrate the effectiveness and tolerability of the buprenorphine transdermal system (BTDS) (5, 10 and 20) in comparison to placebo transdermal system in subjects with moderate to severe osteoarthritis pain of the hip and knee currently treated with oral opioids. The double-blind treatment intervention duration is 4 weeks during which time supplemental analgesic medication (acetaminophen) will be provided to all subjects in addition to study drug.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

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.
