Brief Summary

The goal of this Phase 1 clinical study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of O2P (Oral Overdose Protected) hydrocodone prodrugs (ETR028 and ETR029) relative to hydrocodone bitartrate hemipentahydrate (HCBT) comparator following single oral doses in healthy adult subjects under fasted and fed conditions with naltrexone blockade

Detailed Description

This is a Phase 1, randomized, single-site, open-label, single dose, 2-part study to evaluate the safety and PK of immediate release O2P hydrocodone (comprised of prodrug ETR028 or a blend of ETR028 and ETR029 prodrugs) against an HCBT comparator in healthy adult subjects when administered under fasted and fed conditions with naltrexone blockade. Up to approximately 78 healthy adult subjects are planned to be enrolled with each subject participating in 1 treatment period except for subjects in O2P hydrocodone treatment periods crossed over to receive O2P hydrocodone under fed conditions.

16. Subjects must not engage in strenuous exercise from 48 hours prior to Check-in (Day -1) Visit until after the last sample collection of each treatment period; or

17. Subjects who have used any other investigational product or participated in another research study within a period of 5 half-lives of the product, or a minimum of 30 days prior to study drug administration (whichever is longer).
