Trial Outcomes & Findings for ALK21-004: Single-dose Opiate Challenge of Medisorb® Naltrexone (VIVITROL®) in Adults Who Use Opioids (NCT NCT01218984)

NCT ID: NCT01218984

Last Updated: 2017-01-11

Results Overview

Photographs of subjects' pupils were measured horizontally and vertically, 15 minutes before the first hydromorphone dose and every 15 minutes after each hydromorphone/placebo for hydromorphone dose, for up to 1 hour. Size was the product of vertical and horizontal measures. The slope, determined by linear regression, was used as a summary measure of the dose-response relationship between the hydromorphone dose and pupil size. The steeper the slope, the greater the hydromorphone effect. A slope of zero indicated no evidence of a hydromorphone effect.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 4 weeks (Baseline to Day 28)

Population: Placebo hydromorphone challenge sessions were excluded from the analysis. Results for subjects who discontinued prior to Day 28 were not imputed.

Photographs of subjects' pupils were measured horizontally and vertically, 15 minutes before the first hydromorphone dose and every 15 minutes after each hydromorphone/placebo for hydromorphone dose, for up to 1 hour. Size was the product of vertical and horizontal measures. The slope, determined by linear regression, was used as a summary measure of the dose-response relationship between the hydromorphone dose and pupil size. The steeper the slope, the greater the hydromorphone effect. A slope of zero indicated no evidence of a hydromorphone effect.
