简要总结
This is a Phase 4, multicenter, open-label study evaluating EXPAREL infiltration into the transversus abdominis plane (TAP) after bupivacaine hydrochloride (HCl) spinal anesthesia in subjects undergoing elective Cesarean section (C-section).
详细描述
There will be two groups of subjects with approximately 40 subjects per group. Prior to the C-section, all subjects will receive single-shot spinal anesthesia (1.5 mL bupivacaine HCl 0.75% with dextrose 8.25%). Subjects in Group 1 (Standard of Care) will receive intrathecal morphine injection (e.g., Duramorph®) 0.2 mg in conjunction with the single-shot spinal anesthesia. No TAP block will be administered. Subjects in Group 2 (EXPAREL/TAP) will receive a bilateral TAP infiltration with a single 20 mL dose of EXPAREL 266 mg expanded in volume with 20 mL of normal saline for a total volume of 40 mL (20 mL infiltrated on each side of the abdomen).

入选标准
- •Females ≥18 years of age at screening.
- •Scheduled to undergo elective C-section (single or multiple births).
- •American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) physical status 1, 2, or
- •Able to provide informed consent, adhere to the study visit schedule, and complete all study assessments.
排除标准
- •History of hypersensitivity or idiosyncratic reaction to amide-type local anesthetics or opioids.
- •Contraindication to bupivacaine, morphine, ketorolac, ibuprofen, or acetaminophen.
- •Planned concurrent surgical procedure with the exception of salpingo-oophorectomy or tubal ligation.
- •Use of any of the following medications within the times specified before surgery: long-acting opioid medication, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), or aspirin (except for low-dose aspirin used for cardioprotection) within 3 days, or any opioid medication or acetaminophen within 24 hours.
- •Initiation of treatment with any of the following medications within 1 month of study drug administration or if the medication(s) are being given to control pain: selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), gabapentin, pregabalin (Lyrica®), or duloxetine (Cymbalta®). If a subject is taking one of these medications for a reason other than pain control, she must be on a stable dose for at least 1 month prior to study drug administration.
- •Clinically significant medical or psychiatric disease that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would constitute a contraindication to participation in the study or cause inability to comply with the study requirements.
- •History of, suspected, or known addiction to or abuse of illicit drug(s), prescription medication(s), or alcohol within the past 2 years.
- •Received an investigational drug within 30 days prior to study drug administration, and/or has planned administration of another investigational product or procedure while participating in this study.
- •Previous participating in an EXPAREL study.
- •The subject will be withdrawn from the study if she meets the following criteria:
- •Any clinically significant event or condition uncovered during the surgery (e.g., excessive bleeding, acute sepsis) that might render the subject medically unstable or complicate the subject's postsurgical course.
- •Her baby's 5-minute Apgar score is ≤7.
