Study to Assess Pharmacokinetic (PK), Bioavailability & Food Effect of MR902 Compared With Immediate Release (IR) Morphine Sulphate Oral Solution
- Conditions
- Opioid Substitution Treatment
- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT02773316
- Lead Sponsor
- Mundipharma Research Limited
- Brief Summary
A study to assess bioavailability of a single dose of MR902 and to assess the effect of food on absorption
- Detailed Description
Volunteers will receive a single dose of the investigational drug on 2 occasions and a reference drug on 1 occasion. Volunteers will be randomised to one of two groups, each group receiving a different dose strength of MR902 in fed and fasted state.
The study involves a screening visit 21 days before first dosing and 3 overnight stays in 3 study periods, and a post-study medical visit.
Volunteers will receive naltrexone to reduce anticipated opioid side effects.
