This study is to determine the feasibility of an n-of-1, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled case series to examine effects of extended release opioids when used at intervals shorter than recommended by the manufacturer by people with chronic pain.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Percentage of participants who complete both treatment periods and have evaluable Patient Global Impression and pharmacokinetic data | Feasibility outcome | 8 months | |
Secondary | Patient Global Impression of Change | Single-item rating by subjects of their improvement with treatment on a 7-point scale that ranges from the lowest rating of 1= 'very much improved' to the highest rating of 7= 'very much worse'. Higher values are considered to be a better outcome. | 3 weeks | |
Secondary | Numerical Pain Rating Scale | A measure of pain intensity. Ten point scale with a minimum of "0"= no pain to a maximum of "10" = worst pain imaginable. Higher scores represent a worse outcome. | 3 weeks | |
Secondary | Brief Pain Inventory (Short Form) | An inventory of questions about pain, including a pain diagram, pain intensity rating subscales and pain interference rating subscales. The four pain intensity rating subscales are "pain at worst", "pain at least", "pain on average" and "pain right now". These are 10-point scales with a minimum of "0" =no pain, and a maximum of "10"= pain as bad as you can imagine", where higher scores are worse. Pain intensity subscales can be combined as an average on the same scale of 0-10. The eight pain interference subscales measuring interference on general activity, mood, walking ability, work, relations with other people, sleep, enjoyment of life, are 10-point subscales which range a minimum of "0" = pain does not interfere, to a maximum of "10"=pain completely interferes with the item. Higher scores are worse outcomes. Pain interference subscales may be combined as an total score out of 80, or divided by eight to get an average of pain interference on the scale of 0-10. | 3 weeks | |
Secondary | Subjective Opioid Withdrawal Scale | A self-administered scale for grading 16 opioid withdrawal symptoms on a scale of '0' meaning 'not at all' to '4' meaning 'extremely'. Higher numbers are worse outcomes. | 3 weeks | |
Secondary | Addiction Research Centre Inventory (ARCI) - short form | The short version of the ARCI is a well-validated, standardized, self-report questionnaire of 49 "true-false" items and is used to differentiate subjective effects of drugs. True = 1, False = 0, responses to selected items are added for scores on different scales. Three of the scales are pertinent to opioid abuse liability: MBG (morphine-benzedrine group), a measure of euphoria, minimum = 0, and a maximum = 16); PCAG (pentobarbital-chlorpromazine-alcohol group) a measure of sedation, minimum =0, maximum=15; LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide scale) a measure of dysphoric and psychotomimetic changes, minimum=0, maximum =14. Higher scores are worse outcomes. | 8 hours | |
Secondary | Profile of Mood States | A widely used, self-reported questionnaire for assessing drug-induced changes in mood. It has 72 adjectives and phrases describing feelings people have, and ask for the user to describe "how you are feeling right now" on a 5 point scale of descriptives: with a minimum value = 0 "Not at all", to a maximum value of 4= "extremely". Total mood disturbance is calculated by adding the results of the 6 subscales, and then subtracting the vigor -activity subscale (range 0-200). Subscales (six) are calculating by adding specific items: tension-anxiety (9 items, range 0-36), depression (15 items, range 0-60), anger-hostility (12 items, range 0-48), vigor-activity (8 items, range 0-32), fatigue (7 items, range 0-28), confusion-bewilderment (7 items, range 0-28). | 8 hours | |
Secondary | Visual analogue scale - liking/high | Visual analog scales are 100mm lines, anchored at the ends by opposing adjectives (e.g. like-dislike). "Like" is at the minimum, 0mm mark, "dislike" is at the maximum, 100mm mark. Subjects are instructed to rate how they feel along a continuum by making a mark along the line. The measurement of drug liking is considered to be one of the most sensitive and reliable assessments of the likelihood of abuse of a drug. "Liking" and "High" at the 100mm marks would be considered worse outcomes in terms of likelihood of abuse of a substance. | 8 hours | |
Secondary | Serum opioid concentrations | Serum opioid concentrations at 0,30 mins, 1,2,3,4,5,6 hours post-dose | 6 hours | |
Secondary | Peak plasma concentration (Cmax) | The maximum concentration achieved post dose | 6 hours | |
Secondary | Time to peak plasma concentration (Tmax) | Time that peak plasma concentration occurs post-dose | 6 hours | |
Secondary | Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) | Calculated area under the plasma concentration versus time curve, which describes exposure to the drug. | 24 hours | |
Secondary | Abuse liability quotient (AQ) | The peak plasma concentration (Cmax) divided by the time to peak plasma concentration, which describes a calculation of the average rate of increase in plasma concentration over the interval between treatment administration and the time of peak plasma concentration. | 6 hours |
