Clinical Trial Summary

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and tolerability of subcutaneous (injection beneath the skin) MOA-728 versus placebo in adult Asian subjects with opioid-induced constipation associated with advanced illness (ie, a terminal illness such as incurable cancer or other end-stage disease) or chronic nonmalignant pain.


Clinical Trial Description

Subjects received subcutaneous methylnaltrexone (also referred to as MOA-728 or MNTX) or placebo every other day beginning on Day 1 up to a maximum of 7 doses during the 2-week double-blind period.

Inclusion criteria for this study included subjects with advanced illness or subjects with chronic nonmalignant pain. The actual study population included only subjects with cancer-related advanced illness.

All subjects who completed the double-blind treatment phase of this study could elect to receive methylnaltrexone during a 12-week open-label extension study, provided eligibility criteria were met. Subjects who did not continue in the open-label extension study had a follow-up visit 2 weeks after their last dose of test article. ;
