Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this study is to demonstrate the effectiveness and tolerability of the buprenorphine transdermal system (BTDS) 20 in comparison to the buprenorphine transdermal system (BTDS) 5 and oxycodone immediate-release in subjects with moderate to severe low back pain currently treated with oral opioids. The double-blind treatment intervention duration is 12 weeks during which time supplemental analgesic medication (acetaminophen, ibuprofen) will be provided to all subjects in addition to study drug.


Description:

Buprenorphine is a synthetic opioid analgesic with over 25 years of international clinical experience indicating it to be safe and effective in a variety of therapeutic situations for the relief of moderate to severe pain.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Average Pain Over the Last 24 Hours Score at Weeks 4, 8, and 12. Subjects were evaluated during the double-blind phase for "average pain over the last 24 hours" prior to the study visits. Pain scale is 11 points (0 = no pain to 10 = pain as bad as you can imagine) Last 24 hours score at weeks 4, 8, 12 of the double-blind phase No
Secondary Mean Daily Number of Supplemental Analgesic Tablets The mean daily number of tablets of supplemental analgesic medications used during the double-blind phase Double-blind phase (84 days) No
Secondary Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) Score (V 2.0) The ODI (version 2) is a low back pain-specific, validated instrument that consists of questions related to limitations in performing specific activities of daily living and 1 question related to pain intensity. The ODI is a self-administered questionnaire that is usually completed in less than 5 minutes.
The ODI consists of 10 sections. Each section consists of 6 statements ranked from 0 to 5 (0 = good to 5 = worse). (Note: A higher score represents greater disability.)
Weeks 4, 8, 12 No
Secondary The Sleep Disturbance Subscale in the MOS-Sleep Scale at Weeks 4, 8, and 12. The MOS-Sleep Scale consists of 12 individual items: (4 sleep disturbance, 2 sleep adequacy, 1 quantity/ optimal sleep, 3 somnolence, 1 snoring, and 1 shortness of breath).
Question 1 is scored on a scale of 1 to 5 and Questions 3 to 12 are scored on a scale of 1 to 6. The Sleep Disturbance Subscale score is derived from the scores to Questions 1, 3, 7 and 8, and ranges from 0 to 100, where higher scores indicate greater sleep disturbance.
Weeks 4, 8, 12 of the double-blind phase No
