入选标准

  • Male and female outpatients 18 years of age or older.
  • Patients with chronic non-cancer pain that necessitates the use of non-injectable opioid analgesics. The equivalent dose of 300 mg morphine per day is the maximum opioid analgesic dose allowed. In general, patients should be using opioids on a daily basis.
  • Chronic pain which has been present for a minimum of 3 months which needs the chronic use of opioids for pain relief.
  • Constipation, according to the investigator's clinical judgment, that is resulting from opioid use for non-cancer chronic pain. Opioid-induced constipation (OIC) is defined as follows:
  • less than 3 spontaneous bowel movements per week and at least one of the following on at least 25% of occasions:
  • hard or very hard stools
  • sensation of incomplete evacuation
  • straining while having a bowel movement

排除标准

  • Patients who are receiving opioids for abdominal pain or connective tissue disorders.
  • Planned discontinuation or an increase or decrease by more than 30% of the current opioid dose
  • Patients who underwent major surgery within 3 months prior to screening.
  • Patients with a history of prior chronic constipation (CC) that was present for more than three months and that was not related to opioid use.
  • Patients with a current diagnosis of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) constipation predominant or alternators.
  • Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply.
