Filter by:The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of OraVescent fentanyl treatment compared to placebo treatment monthly over a 12-week treatment period in alleviating breakthrough pain (BTP) in opioid-tolerant patients with noncancer-related chronic pain.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of BEMA Fentanyl (Onsolis) at any dose in the management of breakthrough pain in cancer subjects on background opioid therapy. The standard of care for these breakthrough pain episodes is a rapid onset, short acting analgesic with minimal associated sleepiness. Oral morphine, oxycodone and hydromorphone are routinely used, but because of slow and variable oral absorption, the pain control is not the best with these products. Oral transmucosal fentanyl citrate (OTFC) has been used successfully in treating breakthrough pain episodes associated with cancer. OTFC is a lozenge of fentanyl on a stick and is administered by continuously swabbing the interior of the subject's mouth until the product is dissolved (approximately 15 to 30 minutes). The buccal route of administration avoids the delay and variability associated with oral absorption.

The buccal route of administration avoids the delay and variability associated with oral absorption. BioDelivery Sciences International, Inc. (BDSI) has developed BEMA (BioErodible MucoAdhesive) fentanyl, an alternative product to OTFC that does not require the subject to continuously paint the inside of the mouth with the dosage form. The BDSI product is a small disc that is placed against the mucosal membrane inside the mouth. The mucoadhesive polymers in the disc readily adhere to the mucosal membrane (within 5 seconds) when moistened. The components of the disc are water soluble, so the entire dosage form dissolves within 30 minutes of application.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of EN3267 in treating breakthrough pain episodes in opioid cancer patients who are using stable doses of opioid medication.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness and safety of sublingual fentanyl tablets in relieving breakthrough pain in cancer patients.
The primary objective of the study is to determine whether a test titration regimen of ACTIQ treatment will reduce the number of inadequately managed episodes of breakthrough pain for an individual patient by attaining a successful dose of ACTIQ treatment more quickly. The successful ACTIQ dose provides a satisfactory combination of efficacy and tolerability after a single administration, as assessed by the patient.
The objective of the study is to monitor the safety (adverse event data) of longer-term use of ACTIQ (Oral Transmucosal Fentanyl Citrate [OTFC]) treatment in children with pain associated with cancer, sickle cell disease, or severe burns and breakthrough pain (BTP) who are receiving around the clock (ATC) opioid therapy.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of ACTIQ treatment for the management of breakthrough pain (BTP) compared to placebo treatment in children with cancer and non-cancer pain who are receiving around-the-clock (ATC) opioid therapy and who require additional therapy for BTP episodes. This will be determined by the analysis of the pain intensity (PI), measured by the Faces Pain Scale-Revised (FPS-R) administered 15 minutes after the start of each unit of study drug with an optimal ACTIQ dosage.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of OraVescent fentanyl for the potential treatment of breakthrough pain episodes in patients who have chronic noncancer pain.
