- Brief Summary
This study is aimed to demonstrate equivalence between combinations of lower strength OXN PR tablets (OXN PR LST) and single higher strength OXN PR tablets (OXN PR HST) taken at the same overall daily dose.
- Detailed Description
Study OXN3508 is a multicenter double-blind, double-dummy, randomised, cross-over, 2-period, phase III study in male and female subjects with severe non-malignant or malignant pain that requires around-the-clock opioid therapy at a daily dose of 120/60 mg or 160/80 mg oxycodone/naloxone prolonged release (OXN PR).

Group Intervention Description OXN PR HST Oxycodone Prolonged release oxycodone/naloxone higher strength tablets OXN PR LST Naloxone Prolonged release oxycodone/naloxone lower strength tablets
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Equivalent bowel function as assessed by the Bowel Function Index (BFI). Week 2, 3 5 and 6 from date of randomisation. (mean of subjects average pain over the last 24 hours as assessed by the pain intensity scale.) 24 hours at one day in week 2, 3 5 and 6 from date of randomisation. Pain scores based on the mean of subjects average pain over the last 24 hours as assessed by the pain intensity scale. To demonstrate equivalence between multiple lower strength OXN PR tablets and a single higher strength OXN PR tablet taken at the same overall total daily dose
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of participants with adverse events, high/low laboratory values and clinically significant ECG findings. Up to 35 weeks Pain right now scores at intake of oxycodone/naloxone tablets. Week 2,3,5 and 6 from date of randomisation Pain scores of subjects average pain over the last 24 hours and rescue medication use. Week 1,2,3,4,5 and 6 from date of randomisation To assess quality of life based on the EuroQol EQ-5D. Visit 3 and visit 6 from date of randomisation EuroQol EQ-5D is a standardized instrument for use as a measure of health outcome.
