Evaluation Study of Efficacy and Safety of TTS-Fentanyl in Chronic Non-Malignant Pain
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating TTS-Fentanyl and Morphine for Chronic Pain. Completed, enrolled 39 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Transdermal Therapeutic System (TTS)-fentanyl patch (transdermal patch containing a drug that is put on the skin so the drug will enter the body through the skin) in Thai participants with chronic (lasting a long time) non-malignant (non-cancerous) pain.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Transdermal Therapeutic System (TTS)-fentanyl patches releasing fentanyl in the range of 12.5 to 100 microgram per hour (mcg/hr) rate. The initial dose of fentanyl TTS will be calculated based on each participant's opioid requirement. Patches will be usually replaced every 72 hours. Doses will be escalated in steps of 25 mcg/hr, if pain cannot be controlled. The study duration will be 30 days after first patch application.
Participants will be allowed the use of oral morphine syrup for the duration of TTS-fentanyl treatment to enable appropriate dose titration. It is expected that most of the participants will be titrated to an appropriate dose of TTS-fentanyl within 1 week.
