Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Extended Release Hydromorphone (Exalgo) in Patients With Neuropathic Pain

Neuropathic Pain Clinical Trial

Official title:
Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Extended Release Hydromorphone (Exalgo) in Patients With Neuropathic Pain: An Open Label Study

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to find out if Exalgo (r) is beneficial for the patients with neuropathic pain.

Clinical Trial Description

Neuropathic pain state is usually refractory to most analgesic regimens and requires polypharmacy for symptomatic relief. Current treatment options for neuropathic pain include both oral and topical medications. Most commonly prescribed oral treatments include antidepressants (eg, amitriptyline, desipramine, and duloxetine), antiepileptics (eg, gabapentin, pregabalin), and opiates such as tramadol and morphine. Current topical treatments include the lidocaine patch and the capsaicin patch. Many patients have inadequate pain relief in spite of these treatment options.

Currently, there are no treatments available for treatment of neuropathy itself other than treating the underlying cause and addressing the symptomatic relief for pain. Current drug therapies for neuropathic pain provide inadequate pain relief and undesirable side effects including sedation and cognitive dysfunction. It is not uncommon to use a combination of agents for the treatment of neuropathic pain to minimize the side effects. Although treating the mild to moderate pain may be relatively easy, it is very challenging for severe neuropathic pain. Although the use of opiates for neuropathic pain is well accepted, it remains controversial because of the potential for abuse and diversion. ;
