Overview
Brief Summary
This is a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, single dose study to assess the safety and efficacy of intramuscular sebacoyl dinalbuphine ester (SDE) for post-hemorrhoidectomy pain management.
Detailed Description
This study was a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel, pretreatment study, sponsored by Lumosa therapeutics Co., Ltd (Taiwan). All subjects received training of visual analog scores (VAS) before surgery using the 10-mm horizontal version. VAS was taken by study subjects themselves before the first dose of PCA ketorolac, and at 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48 hours after surgery. After discharge, VAS was taken, also by the study subjects, twice a day, in the morning and evening of Dayday 3 through Dayday 7. Subjects were asked to complete a short form questionnaire, Brief Pain Inventory, on day 1, day 2, and final visit (day 7-10) after surgery. Patient satisfaction of postsurgical analgesia was assessed at the final visit using a 5-grade categorical scale. The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of single intramuscular injection of SDE in an extended-release formulation, against placebo control, administrated pre-operatively in subjects scheduled to undergo elective hemorrhoidectomies.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Pain Assessment Calculated as the Area Under the Curve of VAS Pain Intensity Scores Through 48 Hours After Surgery
Time Frame: 1±0.1, 2±0.1, 3±0.1, 4±0.25, 8±0.5, 12±0.5, 16±0.5, 20±0.5, 24±1, 28±1, 32±2, 36±2, 40±2, 44±2, 48±2 h after the surgery
The primary outcome measure of this study is pain assessment (time-specific pain intensity) calculated as the area under the curve (AUC) of VAS pain intensity scores through 48 hours after surgery (AUC0-48). Pain intensity was measured with visual analog scale (VAS) and the assessment began right before the first use of analgesics, and at 1±0.1, 2±0.1, 3±0.1, 4±0.25, 8±0.5, 12±0.5, 16±0.5, 20±0.5, 24±1, 28±1, 32±2, 36±2, 40±2, 44±2, 48±2 hours after the operation.
Secondary Outcomes
- Pain Assessment Measured With VAS During Day 3-7 in the Morning and Evening, as Well as During Special Events Such as Bowel Movements.(Day 3-7)
- Consumption of Ketorolac Via Intravenous Patient- Controlled Analgesia (IV PCA)(Day 1-2)
- Time From the End of Operation to the First PCA Ketorolac Dose(From the end of operation until the first PCA ketorolac dose used, assessed up to 48 hrs)
- Brief Pain Inventory (BPI)(Day 1, 2 and Day 7)
- Consumption of Oral Ketorolac (Day 3-7)(Day 3-7)
- Subject Satisfaction With Post-Surgical Analgesic Between Treatment Groups(Day 7)
