简要总结
The goal of this randomized double blind three way (1:1:1) cross over clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness and duration of analgesia of a single infusion of (2R,6R)-HNK 0.5mg/kg compared with ketamine 0.5mg/kg and saline with a 5-week interval between treatments on pain, pain qualities, physical function, pain interference, sleep disturbance and quality of life in subjects with neuropathic pain of the extremities.
The questions that this study will address are:
- What is the analgesic efficacy of (2R,6R)-HNK on pain intensity and pain qualities in patients with chronic (>3 month) neuropathic pain (NP).
- What will be the effective duration of a single infusion of (2R,6R)-HNK in patients with NP.
- Will (2R,6R)-HNK reduce pain related effects including interference in daily activities of life, sleep disturbances and change the qualities of pain reported by patients.
Participants will receive each of the three study drugs in a random order at 5-week intervals over a 15 week period. The drug will be administered as a 45-minute infusion.
Participants will complete quantitative sensory and pain evaluations and complete patient reported pain outcomes prior to receiving the first study drug and at 7, 14 and 21 and 35 days following study drug administration.
详细描述
Adult patients (18 to 80 years) with an established diagnosis of chronic (> 3 month) neuropathic pain (NP) of the extremities will be identified and screened for study inclusion. After informed consent is obtained, subject will be randomized into a (2R,6R)-HNK (H), ketamine (K) or saline (S) infusion groups for each of the study drug administration periods. The group sequences for the infusions will be: KSH, HSK, KHS, SKH and HKS and each group will contain 5 subjects at each sequence. Study subjects will be evaluated for at least 7 days prior to the first treatment and for 35 days following each treatment. Researchers involved in the subject's care and assessments will be blinded to group allocation. Safety will be assessed throughout the study. Baseline safety assessments will include height, body mass index (BMI), weight, temperature, medical, visual and ocular history, physical examinations, and vital signs (VS). Prior to study commencement and 28 days after each drug infusion a blood chemistry panel, liver function tests (LFT), a complete blood count (CBC) and a 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) will be obtained. A pretreatment quantitative pain evaluation will assess overall pain level, pain tolerance, pinprick hyperalgesia, touch, brush and cold allodynia. Patients will be maintained on their current scheduled analgesic regimen during the study and instructed to use on-demand analgesic only as needed.
