Trial Outcomes & Findings for Evaluation of the Tolerability of Switching Subjects on Chronic ATC Opioid Therapy to Buprenorphine HCl Buccal Film (NCT NCT01871285)

NCT ID: NCT01871285

Last Updated: 2017-02-27

Results Overview

A responder is defined as a subject whose maximum (across all time points) clinical opiate withdrawal scale (COWS) total score is ≥13. COWS scores range 0 to 4 or 5 on 11 items related to opiate withdrawal signs or symptoms; total score range 0 to 48 where 0-4 = no withdrawal and 5-12 = mild, 13-24 = moderate, 25-36 = moderately severe, more than 36 = severe withdrawal.

Participant Flow

Subjects with at least 6 months history of chronic pain requiring around-the-clock (ATC) opioid therapy with 80 to 220 mg morphine sulfate equivalent (MSE) per day for at least 28 days

Subjects were enrolled and entered a screening period (73). Those meeting criteria for study entry including positive precipitated withdrawal during naloxone challenge (39) were randomized and stratified to 2 dose groups (subjects requiring 80-160 mg MSE/day ATC to MSE Dose Group 1 and subjects requiring 161-220 mg MSE/day ATC to MSE Dose Group 2).

Population: Analysis based on Per-protocol population (all randomized subjects who did not have major protocol deviations that might have confounded interpretation of the COWS \[eg, received erroneous treatment\], completed both crossover periods, and provided at least the first 4 hours of COWS data for each of the 2 treatment periods); 4 subjects were excluded.
