2025-07-03
Participant Flow
The first subject was dosed 03-October-2022 and the last subject completed the study 23-December-2022. The study was conducted at 1 site in the US.
The Qualification Phase (Part 1) was conducted prior to the Treatment Phase (Part 2) to identify subjects eligible for participation in Part 2. N=13 subjects who had not previously qualified in a similar study at the same site and N=11 subjects who had previously qualified in a similar study at the same site for a total of N=24 subjects who participated in the Treatment Phase (Part 2).

Fentanyl Infusion
The Qualification Phase (Part 1) was conducted prior to Part 2 to identify subjects who had not previously qualified in a similar study at the same site. During Qualification, subjects were given an IV infusion of fentanyl titrated to produce up to an average of 50% decrease in minute ventilation.

Sequence 1 (Test-Reference-Test-Reference)
Treatment Phase (Part 2) - Sequence 1 - BABA.
This was a 4-period, 2-treatment, 2-sequence, replicate randomization.
Subjects received a single dose of Nalmefene Hydrochloride injection 1.5 mg for IM administration (Treatment B \[Test\]) on Day 1 in Period 1, then a single dose of Naloxone 4 mg for IN administration (Treatment A \[Reference\] on Day 1 in Period 2, then a single dose of Nalmefene Hydrochloride injection 1.5 mg for IM administration (Treatment B \[Test\]) on Day 1 in Period 3, then a single dose of Naloxone 4 mg for IN administration (Treatment A \[Reference\] on Day 1 in Period 4.
All completed subjects received two rounds of Nalmefene and 2 rounds of Naloxone.

PRIMARY outcome
Timeframe: 5 minutes after opioid antagonist administrationPopulation: Eligible analysis set was defined as subjects/periods who were randomized, received study drug, had at least 1 valid pharmacodynamic (PD) measurement, and their opioid-induced respiratory depressions (OIRDs) were worse than baseline for minute ventilation (MV) and transcutaneous CO2 (TCO2). The data for the overall treatment period was calculated as the average of available data from individual periods.
