简要总结
The aim of this study is to compare intrathecal morphine administration: using a pump with continuous or programmable flow.
详细描述
Cancer is frequently associated with pain. In spite of recent improvements in cancer related pain treatment, incidence of cancerous chronic pain did not decrease. Indeed, 15 to 20% of patients are still suffering from intractable pain despite an optimal symptom management.
Treatment of cancer pain is generally based on the WHO analgesic ladder according to 3 steps. Patients with advanced cancer are often treated at WHO step 3 analgesics, i.e. morphine and its derivatives, at high dosages. But increasing the dosage of opioids also leads to accentuation of their adverse events and the corresponding risks.
At this stage of the disease, in patients with failure of conventional analgesic therapy, intrathecal injection of analgesics can be decided in order to relieve pain. 2 types of pumps allow intrathecal morphine administration : continuous or programmable flow. In this study, we want to compare the quality of analgesia obtained through these 2 flows.

结局指标
主要结局
Pain improvement between 2 groups.
时间窗: At 3 month
Pain will be assessed every day by patient using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS. VAS scores will be compared between 2 groups(continuous or programmable flow). We want to demonstrate the superiority of intrathecal analgesia obtained through programmable flow compared to continuous flow.
次要结局
- Pain improvement with intrathecal analgesia compared to previous antalgic therapy.(at 3 month)
- Adverse Events assessment.(every month)
- Patient's performance status improvement.(At 1 month)
- Incidence and types of complications.(every month.)
