研究概览

简要总结

This will be a proof-of-concept, single arm study with a maximum of 20 patients to evaluate preliminary analgesic efficacy and safety of Trichomylin® in patients with advanced cancer (male and female) who suffer from moderate to severe chronic pain and who are taking a stable dose of long-acting opioid therapy for at least 1 week prior to screening.

详细描述

This study will consist of a screening visit, treatment, and safety follow-up period. There will be an initial patient determined titration phase, using escalated doses of Investigational Product, to reach a dose that achieves symptom relief with tolerable side effects. Each capsule of Trichomylin® contains a fixed ratio of 5 mg delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol: 5 mg cannabidiol: 5 mg cannabichromene. Participants can titrate up to a maximum of 2 capsules twice daily (total of 4 capsules). This will be followed by a 5 day assessment period of the stable dose determined in collaboration with clinicians.

结局指标

主要结局

Number of Participants That Reach the Stable Dose during Dose Titration and Respond to Average Pain from Baseline to Investigational Product Discontinuation

时间窗: Baseline and Investigational Product Discontinuation, up to 23 days

Participants have reached their "stable dose" and respond to average pain as entered in response to the BPI-SF Question #5, where response is defined as having a baseline of ≥30% from baseline at the Investigational Product discontinuation visit.

Change in Average Pain from Baseline to End of the Titration

时间窗: Baseline and End of Dose Titration, up to 14 days

Average pain as entered in response to the BPI-SF Question #5.

Change in Average Pain Scores from Baseline to Investigational Product Discontinuation

时间窗: Baseline and Investigational Product Discontinuation, up to 23 days

The Brief Pain Inventory Short Form (BPI-SF) is a standardized scale used for capturing participant reported symptom assessments related to pain severity and the resulting functional interference caused by pain. The BPI-SF has a numerical rating scale used by participants to indicate their level of pain. Participants are asked to assign a number that best describes their pain on average from 0 = no pain, to 10 = pain as bad as you can imagine, at the same time every day during the Screening period (Day -7 to Day -1) and enter this number in response to the BPI-SF Question #5 on the evaluation form.

Proportion of Responders to Average Pain from Baseline to Investigational Product Discontinuation

时间窗: Baseline and Investigational Product Discontinuation, up to 23 days

Average pain as entered in response to the BPI-SF Question #5, where response is defined as having a baseline of ≥30% from baseline at the Investigational Product discontinuation visit.

Number of Participants That Reach the Stable Dose during Dose Titration

时间窗: Baseline (i.e. Day 1 Dose Titration) and Stable Dose Day 1, up to 14 days

Investigational Product will be titrated up incrementally until participants achieve their "optimal dose" that achieves symptom relief with tolerable side effects or to a maximum of 2 capsules twice daily. Once participants have had 2 full days (at minimum) of treatment at this dosage, this will then be considered their "stable dose".

Change in Pain Interference from Baseline to End of the Titration

时间窗: Baseline and End of DoseTitration, up to 14 days

Pain interference is scored as the mean of the seven interference items and entered in response to the BPI-SF Question #9.

Change in Pain Interference from Baseline to Investigational Product Discontinuation

时间窗: Baseline and Investigational Product Discontinuation, up to 23 days

Pain interference as entered in response to the BPI-SF Question #9.
