Primary Endpoint
• Number of naloxone administrations

Overview

Brief Summary

The number IM and IN administrations needed to restore ventilation to baseline levels in healthy volunteers

Eligibility Criteria

Ages
18 years to 64 years (18-64 Years)
Accepts Healthy Volunteers
Yes

Inclusion Criteria

  • Aged 18-65 years with body mass index 19-40 kg/m2
  • Opioid users: use opioids at daily doses ≥ 60 mg oral morphine equivalents. . No upper limit is set as would like to study an as large as possible range of opioid use. It is our experience that the majority of patients uses 60-600 mg oral morphine equivalents.
  • Opioid users: • Stable as defined by the Investigator, based on a medical evaluation that includes the subject’s medical and surgical history, physical examination, vital signs, 12-lead ECG, hematology, and blood chemistry.

Exclusion Criteria

  • A medical history of medical or psychiatric disease (incl. drug or alcohol addiction);
  • Pregnancy or lactation
  • A positive drug urine dipstick on the screening or study days
  • History or presence of allergic response to study medication
  • for chronic opioid users: • Currently meet the criteria for diagnosis of moderate or severe substance use disorder according to the DSM-5 criteria on any substances other than opioids, caffeine, or nicotine;
  • Chronic opioid users: Any active medical condition, organ disease or concurrent medication or treatment that may either compromise subject safety or interfere with study endpoints;
  • Chronic opioid users: Currently receiving medication-assisted treatment for the treatment of opioid-use disorder;
  • Treatment with mixed agonists-antagonists (such as buprenorphine) or use of benzodiazepines.
