Filter by:Breakthrough cancer pain (BTcP) is a common problem in patients with cancer. This is a phase I/IIa, pharmacokinetic, dose-response and safety study of inhaled fentanyl aerosol (25µg/dose) in Chinese patients with breakthrough cancer pain. The study will include two stages.
Pain is a frequent symptom in cancer patients with a negative impact on the quality of life (QoL).Breakthrough cancer pain (BTcP) is defined as "a transient exacerbation of pain, manifesting spontaneously or related to a specific predictable or unpredictable triggering factor, despite stable and adequately controlled basal pain". The present study assesses the percentage of patients who are treated according to the European guidelines (ESMO, 2018) for BTcP management in 4 European countries and the impact of the adherence to guidelines on patients' pain relief and QoL.
The purpose of this observational study is: To observe the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of Abstral ODT for the alleviation of breakthrough cancer pain in Korean patients with various cancers in real-world clinical settings and supplement and expand the previous cross-sectional survey results.
Primary Objective: To determine the feasible dose range of Painkyl® required for Taiwanese population. Secondary Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy of Painkyl® by calculating squared mean of pain intensity difference at 30 minutes after taking Painkyl® (SPID30, an 11-point scale). To evaluate subjects' satisfaction by conducting global evaluation of medication performance (a 5-point categorical scale). To identify percentage of episodes requiring rescue medication during maintenance treatment period. To evaluate the safety data of Painkyl® for breakthrough pain.
Breakthrough cancer pain (BTcP) is a rapid onset, high intensity and short duration pain episode, which takes place within stable background pain control. It significantly affects the quality of life of patients with cancer and their ability to function normally. Rapid onset opioids and immediate-release oral opioids (e.g. morphine sulfate, hydromorphone, and oxycodone) are the standard treatment for BTcP. Because of the limited availability, high cost, complicated titration and the high risks of overdosing with rapid-onset opioids, most often the preferred choice of treatment is immediate-release oral opioids. However, this approach might not always offer optimal speed for onset of action and duration to match the rapid nature of an episode of BTcP. In order to seek a potential alternative to immediate-release oral opioids, we are proposing to test the onset of action of PPP001 to rapidly alleviate breakthrough pain in patients with cancer. We will also examine the safety and the efficacy on pain intensity of PPP001 within this population.
The purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence of breakthrough cancer pain and characterize breakthrough cancer pain in an unselected, representative cohort of cancer outpatients with or without pain who attend consultations.
The BTP (Breakthrough pain)was defined as "a transient exacerbation of pain that occurs either spontaneously, or in relation to a specific predictable or unpredictable trigger, despite relatively stable and adequately controlled background pain". The BTP is a common clinical features in patients with cancer pain (BTcP: breakthrough cancer pain). The prevalence of BTcP is equal to 56%. Currently, the investigators tend to recognize the idiopathic/spontaneous or accident BTcP in the three sub-types: voluntary, non- voluntary and procedural. The diagnosis of BTCP is not always easy because in the cancer patient is normal to observe changes in the intensity of pain during the day, so it is necessary to differentiate slight fluctuations from the presence of real episodes of BTCP, for which is necessary to use a rescue treatment adjusted. In the study will be proposed the use of a diagnostic algorithm, present in the literature, to perform the diagnosis of BTCP. In the presence of BTCP, is important both a correct controlled background pain with major opioids, which can reduce the number and the intensity of the painful episodes, both implement an adjunctive therapy, called "rescue", to be administered at the time which takes over the painful episode using, in this case, an opioid greater.
This Observational Registry study is designed to collect self-reported Transmucosal Immediate Release Fentanyl (TIRF) Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) Access program-enrolled patient experience with breakthrough cancer pain (BTcP) as a result of treatment with Abstral® through the use of Quality of Life and pain measurement tools administered via questionnaire.
National multicenter, prospective, observational study in cancer patients with chronic background pain and breakthrough pain to whom PecFent® has been prescribed under pragmatic condition by a specialist in the treatment of cancer pain conditions. • Study objectives include assessment of early treatment satisfaction.
