In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Fentanyl Buccal Tablets Compared With Immediate-Release Oxycodone for Chronic Pain. Completed, enrolled 323 participants across 45 sites.
Detailed Summary
Evaluate the efficacy of treatment with Fentanyl Buccal Tablets (FBT) compared with immediate release oxycodone in alleviating breakthrough pain in opioid tolerant patients with chronic pain.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Patients will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio either to titrate immediate-release oxycodone first and to titrate FBT second, or to titrate FBT first and immediate-release oxycodone second, followed by 2 double-blind crossover treatment periods (in randomized order). For the double-blind treatment period of the study involving FBT administration, a patient is randomly assigned to receive FBT at the 200, 400, 600, or 800 mcg strength found to be successful during open-label titration. For the double-blind treatment period of the study to which a patient is randomly assigned to receive immediate-release oxycodone, the patient will receive immediate-release oxycodone at the strength (15, 30, 45, or 60 mg) found to be successful during open-label titration.
