Completed
Conditions
Low Back Pain
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT00797017
Lead Sponsor
Janssen Korea, Ltd., Korea
Brief Summary

The purpose of this observational study is to investigate the impact of fentanyl matrix on improvement of pain and functioning in spinal disorder-related chronic pain.

Detailed Description

This study is a prospective, open-label, non-interventional study. The objective of the study is to investigate the impact of fentanyl matrix on improvement of pain and functioning after 8-week treatment of fentanyl matrix in the patients who complained of spinal disorder-related chronic pain in clinical practice according to the investigator's discretion. The primary endpoint is a percent of pain intensity difference between baseline and week 8 of the study. Each patients will evaluate their pain intensity every 28 days during the 8 weeks. The secondary objectives are to observe the change in the following variables after administrating fentanyl matrix; K-ODI (Korean version - Oswestry Disability Index) score, sleep disturbance, disturbance of activities of daily living and disturbance of social activities. In addition, Investigator and patient global assessment, patient preference, CGI-I (Clinical Global Impression - Improvement) and Adverse Events will be investigated. LDK: Lumbar degenerative kyphosis, CRPS: Complex Regional Pain SYndrome, FBSS: Failed Back Surgery Syndrome Observational Study - No investigational drug administered
