Inclusion Criteria

  • Subjects aged 18 years or older at time of informed consent with non-malignant chronic pain experiencing opioid-induced constipation
  • Subjects with < 3 spontaneous bowel movements a week and experiencing bowel symptoms
  • Subjects receiving chronic opioid therapy due to non-malignant pain for ≥ 3 months

Exclusion Criteria

  • Evidence of clinically significant gastrointestinal disease
  • History of chronic constipation prior to starting analgesic medication or any potential non-opioid cause of bowel dysfunction that may be a major contributor to the constipation

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Change From Baseline to Last 2 Weeks of the Treatment Period in the Number of Spontaneous Bowel Movements Per Week

Time Frame: Baseline (2 weeks prior to randomization) and the last 2 weeks of treatment (Weeks 3 to 4 for participants who completed the 28-day treatment period)

Participants completed a daily Bowel Movement and Constipation Assessment Diary to record information about bowel movements and constipation. A spontaneous bowel movement was defined as a bowel movement unassisted by rescue medication (laxative or enema) taken within the 24 hours preceding the bowel movement. Baseline was defined as the average number of SBMs per week during the 2 weeks prior to randomization. The number of SBMs per week in the last 2 weeks of treatment is defined as the average number of SBMs per week recorded in the diary for the 14 days prior to the last dose of study drug.

Secondary Outcomes
