Filter by:The purpose of this study is to develop and validate a classification model based entirely on medical claims data that can be used to identify patients experiencing prescription opioid abuse/addiction among patients receiving extended-release (ER) and/or long-acting (LA) opioids
To assess whether the percentage of patients with behaviors suggestive of misuse, diversion, abuse and/or addiction described in the medical record increases across pre-defined categories of increasing doctor/pharmacy shopping behavior.
The purpose of this study is to determine reliability of codes and data from electronic medical records to predict and measure overdose and death in patients prescribed opioid analgesics. The study will compare this electronic data to data manually obtained from medical charts.
To evaluate the reasons patients go to more than one prescriber or more than one pharmacy to obtain prescriptions opioids and assess whether the percentage of patients reporting misuse, abuse and/or diversion increases across defined categories of doctor/pharmacy shopping as defined in Study 4A.
The purpose is to validate the PRISM-5-Op as a measurement of prescription opioid substance use disorder.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the patient usability and reliability of the POMAQ survey to evaluate opioid misuse and abuse among adults with chronic moderate to severe pain, including patients who are opioid abusers, non-abusers, as well as non-opioid users
This was a single-dose, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 3 way crossover study designed to evaluate the relative abuse potential of crushed EMBEDA® compared to morphine sulfate CR tablets and placebo in healthy male and female, non-dependent, recreational opioid users. An appropriate dose of morphine sulfate CR (i.e., 30 mg, 60 or 90 mg) was to be selected during Part A of the study (Dose Selection Phase). Each subject participated in the study for up to (approximately) 16 weeks and was confined in the clinic for a total of up to 12 nights.
This is an open-label (both the physician and healthy volunteer know which medication will be administered), single-dose, 5-dosing period study to characterize the pharmacokinetics (process by which oxycodone is absorbed, distributed, metabolized, and eliminated by the body) and the effects of food on the pharmacokinetics of oxycodone. The study will take place over approximately two and a half months and will consist of three phases: a screening visit to determine eligibility for the study, a 5-dosing period treatment phase, and an end-of-study visit.
Addressing the issue of opioid dependence and tolerance has public health implications for the treatment of opioid abuse (both heroin as well as pharmaceutical opioids) and for the treatment of pain. Recent preclinical data suggest a role for Substance P (NK-1) receptors in modulating both the acute and chronic response to opioids. The objective of this study is to determine whether pretreatment with aprepitant, a selective neurokinin-1 (NK-1) antagonist can reduce the direct response to an opioid agonist (oxycodone) on measures related to abuse liability and reinforcing effects.
