Key inclusion & exclusion criteria
|
Inclusion criteria: Subjects to be included in the study are those who meet all of the following criteria:
1. Male or female subjects at least 18 years (females less than one year post-menopausal must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test prior to the first dose of study treatment, be non-lactating, and willing to use adequate and highly effective methods of contraception throughout the study. A highly effective method of birth control is defined as those which result in a low failure rate (i.e. less than 1% per year) when used consistently and correctly such as sterilisation, implants, injectables, combined oral contraceptives, some IUDs (Intrauterine Device, hormonal), vasoectomised partner or true sexual abstinence).
Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception.
2. Subjects receiving WHO step III opioid analgesic medication for the treatment of severe non-malignant or malignant pain in the oxycodone equivalent range of 100 – 160 mg per day, who are not sufficiently treated with their current pain medication in respect to analgesic efficacy (average pain = 5 [NAS 0-10] or regularly require frequent intake [> 2 per day] of additional pain rescue medication) or tolerability and who could benefit from improved analgesic efficacy, improved tolerability or optimised treatment regimen (e.g. reduction of number of different drugs, less different formulation usage/route of applications). Subjects sufficiently treated with their current analgesic therapy do not fulfill this inclusion criterion.
3. Documented history of severe non-malignant or malignant pain that will require around-the-clock opioid therapy for a minimum of 6 weeks (OXN60/30 mg PR or OXN80/40 mg PR twice daily).
4. Subjects must be willing to change/adapt their current opioid analgesic treatment/regimen.
5. Subjects must be willing and able (e.g. mental and physical condition) to participate in all aspects of the study, including use of medication, completion of subjective evaluations, attending scheduled clinic visits, completing telephone contacts, and compliance with protocol requirements as evidenced by providing written, informed consent.
6. In the Investigator’s opinion the subject’s non-analgesic concomitant medications, including those medications for the treatment of depression are thought to be stable, and will remain stable throughout the Double-blind Phase of the study.
7. In the Investigator’s opinion the non-opioid analgesic medication dose will remain stable during the Double-blind Phase. Are the trial subjects under 18? no Number of subjects for this age range: F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 100 F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 100
Exclusion criteria: Subjects to be excluded from the study are those who meet any of the following criteria:
1. Any history of hypersensitivity to oxycodone, naloxone, related products or other ingredients of the study treatment.
2. Any contraindication to oxycodone, naloxone and other ingredients of the study treatment.
3. Subjects with any situation in which opioids are contraindicated (e.g. severe respiratory depression with hypoxia and/or hypercapnia, severe chronic obstructive lung disease, paralytic ileus).
4. Subjects already receiving OXN PR plus additional opioid and being dissatisfied due to unacceptable tolerability of OXN PR.
5. Active alcohol or drug abuse and/or history of opioid abuse.
6. Subjects with a positive urine drug test at screening visit 1, which indicates unreported illicit drug use or unreported use of a concomitant medication not required to treat the subjects’ medical condition(s).
7. Evidence of clinically significant cardiovascular, renal, hepatic, gastrointestinal (e.g. paralytic ileus), or psychiatric disease, as determined by medical history, clinical laboratory tests, ECG results, and physical examination, that would place the subject at risk upon exposure to the study treatment or that may confound the analysis and/or interpretation of the study results.
8. Chronic or intermittent pain that results from Fibromyalgia or Rheumatoid Arthritis.
9. Subjects with hypothyroidism (non-compensated), Addison`s disease or increase of intracranial pressure.
10. Subjects receiving hypnotics or other central nervous system (CNS) depressants that, in the Investigator’s opinion, may pose a risk of additional CNS depression with opioid study treatment.
11. Subjects with uncontrolled seizures or convulsive disorder.
12. Surgery within 2 months prior to the start of the Screening Period, or planned surgery during the Run-in Period and 6-week Double-blind Phase that may affect GI motility or pain.
13. Subjects presently taking, or who have taken peripheral antagonists (methylnaltrexone, Almivopan) = 30 days prior to the start of the Screening Period.
14. Subjects suffering from diarrhoea.
15. Abnormal aspartate aminotransferase (AST; SGOT), alanine aminotransferase (ALT; SGPT), or alkaline phosphatase levels (> 3 times the upper limit of normal) or an abnormal total bilirubin and/or creatinine level(s) (> 1.5 times the upper limit of normal), gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT or GGTP) = 3 times the upper limit of normal.
16. Subjects presently taking or who have taken monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOI) = 2 weeks prior to the start of the Screening Period.
17. Subjects who have experienced persistent drug withdrawal symptoms during a previous treatment with OXN PR.
Additional exclusion criterion for subjects suffering from non-malignant pain:
18. Subjects who participated in a clinical research study involving a new chemical entity or an experimental drug within 30 days of study entry (defined as the start of the Screening Period).
Additional exclusion criteria for subjects suffering from cancer pain:
19. Subjects with known or suspected unstable brain metastases or spinal cord compression that may require changes in steroid treatment throughout the duration of the study.
20. Cyclic chemotherapy in the 2 weeks before the screening visit or planned during the study that has shown in the past to significantly influence bowel function. If subjects are having their first cycle of chemotherapy during the 2 weeks bef

Primary Outcome(s)
|
Main Objective: Primary objective: To demonstrate equivalence between multiple lower strength OXN PR tablets and a single higher strength OXN PR tablet taken at the same overall total daily dose as shown by: • Analgesic efficacy based on the mean of subjects’ ‘Average Pain over the last 24 hours’ at the last 2 visits of each Cross-over Period, as assessed by the Pain Intensity Scale. Co-primary objective: • Equivalent bowel function as assessed by the Bowel Function Index (BFI).
|
Primary end point(s): Primary Endpoint: Analgesic efficacy based on the mean of subjects’ ‘Average Pain over the last 24 hours’ at the last 2 visits of each cross-over Period, as assessed by the Pain Intensity Scale.
Co-primary Endpoint: Equivalent bowel function as assessed by the Bowel Function Index (BFI).
|
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The primary endpoint 'Average Pain over the last 24 hours' and the co-primary endpoint 'BFI’ will be derived as the arithmetic mean value of the observed values at Visits 5 and 6 with cross-over period 1, and the arithmetic mean value of the observed values at Visits 8 and 9 with cross-over period 2, respectively
