简要总结

RATIONALE: Morphine and ibuprofen help lessen pain caused by pleurodesis. It is not yet known whether one drug is more effective than the other in lessening pleurodesis-related pain or whether the size of the chest drain tube affects pain.

PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying ibuprofen to see how well it works compared with morphine in treating pain in patients undergoing pleurodesis for malignant pleural effusion.

详细描述

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To evaluate the efficacy of a non-steroidal based regimen comprising ibuprofen in decreasing post-pleurodesis pain as compared to an opiate-based regimen comprising morphine sulfate in patients with malignant pleural effusion.
  • To evaluate whether chest drain size influences the amount of post-pleurodesis pain.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to histological tissue type (mesothelioma vs non-mesothelioma) and thoracoscopic procedure. Patients are randomized to 1 of 4 treatment arms.

  • Arm I: Patients undergo pleurodesis after placement of a large bore chest drain (24F) on day 0 and receive oral ibuprofen 3 times daily for 3 days. The chest tube is removed on day 3.
  • Arm II: Patients undergo pleurodesis after placement of a small bore chest drain (12F) on day 0 and receive oral ibuprofen 3 times daily for 3 days. The chest tube is removed on day 3.
  • Arm III: Patients undergo pleurodesis after placement of a large bore chest drain (24F) on day 0 and receive oral morphine sulfate 4 times daily for 3 days. The chest tube is removed on day 3.
  • Arm IV: Patients undergo pleurodesis after placement of a small bore chest drain (12F) on day 0 and receive oral morphine sulfate 4 times daily for 3 days. The chest tube is removed on day 3.

入选标准

  • DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:
  • Diagnosis of malignant pleural effusion requiring pleurodesis confirmed by 1 of the following:
  • Histologically proven pleural malignancy
  • Typical features of pleural malignancy seen on direct vision during thoracoscopy
  • Pleural effusion in the context of histologically proven cancer elsewhere
  • No primary lymphoma or small cell lung carcinoma
  • All patients undergoing thoracoscopy for suspected malignant pleural effusion are eligible
  • PATIENT CHARACTERISTICS:
  • Life expectancy > 1 month
  • Not pregnant or nursing
  • No history of GI bleeding or untreated peptic ulceration
  • No known sensitivity to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), opiates, or paracetamol
  • No hypercapnic respiratory failure
  • No known intravenous drug abuse
  • No severe renal or liver disease
  • No known bleeding diathesis
  • Able to give informed consent
  • PRIOR CONCURRENT THERAPY:
  • More than 2 weeks since prior and no concurrent corticosteroid therapy
  • No concurrent warfarin therapy
  • No other concurrent analgesics
  • Analgesics used as a breakthrough regimen are allowed from trial entry to tube withdrawal at day 3 post-pleurodesis (i.e., regular paracetamol, assigned study analgesia, and breakthrough medication only, including opiate slow release patches)
  • No concurrent enrollment on another clinical study
  • Patients may participate in other trials immediately after completion of current trial, excluding those involving further pleural procedures or analgesia trials in which patients must wait at least 3 months after completion of current trial

结局指标

主要结局

Average pain score over 72 hours post pleurodesis (total pain relief score) by a Visual Analogue Scale of pain relief and pain intensity every 6 hours

  • Change in renal function and liver function (i.e., ALT or AST, bilirubin, albumin, and alk phos) from day 0 to day 3
  • Change in Inflammatory markers from day 0 and day 3 (e.g., CRP, WCC) from day 0 to day 3
  • Change in alveolar PO2-arterial PO2 (A-a) gradient (on air) on day 0 and day 3
  • Continuous oximetry monitoring from day 0 to day 3 (on air unless saturation < 90%)
  • Average conscious level measured by Glasgow Coma scale from day 0 to day 3
  • Drug- and talc-related adverse reactions
  • Complications from chest drain insertion
  • Presence of chronic chest wall pain assessed at all follow-up visits
