Trial Outcomes & Findings for Local Infiltration Analgesia With and Without EXPAREL Following Total Knee Arthroplasty (NCT NCT02713490)
NCT ID: NCT02713490
Last Updated: 2020-12-11
Results Overview
AUC of VAS pain intensity scores from 12 to 48 hours, which represents total pain experienced from 12 to 48 hours. Visual Analog Scale (VAS) is a pain scale. The VAS was presented as a straight 10 cm line, where 0 cm is no pain and 10 cm is the worst pain possible. Patients were asked, "How much pain are you experiencing right now? Please place a vertical mark on the line below to indicate the level of pain you are experiencing right now."

Participant Flow
Participants were recruited between April 18, 2016 and February 8, 2017 at 16 sites in the United States
A total of 167 patients were screened; there were 27 screen failures, including 2 patients who were randomized in error to the EXPAREL 266 mg + bupivacaine hydrochloride (HCl) group.

The overall benefit of analgesic score (OBAS) comprises seven questions to assess pain intensity, adverse effects, and patients' satisfaction with analgesia (eg, "Please rate your current pain at rest on a scale between 0=minimal pain and 4=maximum imaginable pain"). Overall scores ranged between 0- 28. OBAS measures patients' benefit from postoperative pain therapy. A lower composite score indicates greater benefit from the therapy.

An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in humans whether or not considered drug-related. An AE could therefore have been any unfavorable and unintended sign (eg, abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a drug without any judgment about causality. Serious AEs were defined as per clinicaltrials.gov. Note that 71 subjects were randomized into the EXPAREL arm, but only 70 subjects received EXPAREL.
