A Pilot Trial to Determine the Effective Dose of N-acetylcysteine for Opioid Reduction in Patients Undergoing Spine Surgery.
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Dose Response Curve Placebo, Dose Response Curve N-acetylcysteine 50 mg/kg, and 4 other interventions for Surgery. Completed, enrolled 50 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Determine the optimal dose of IV N-acetylcysteine (NAC) to produce opioid reduction following spine surgery and estimate the difference in opioid consumption between placebo and the selected optimal dose.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
5 participants will be randomized to the placebo group to estimate the dose response curve and to identify the optimal dose.
5 participants will be randomized to the N-acetylcysteine 50 mg/kg group to estimate the dose response curve and to identify the optimal dose.
5 participants will be randomized to the N-acetylcysteine 100 mg/kg group to estimate the dose response curve and to identify the optimal dose.
5 participants will be randomized to the N-acetylcysteine 150 mg/kg group to estimate the dose response curve and to identify the optimal dose.
Once the optimal N-acetylcysteinedose is identified, 15 participants will be randomized to the optimal dose (50,100, or 150 mg/kg) to estimate the difference in opioid consumption between patients administered optimal N-acetylcysteine dose or placebo.
15 Participants will be randomized to placebo to estimate the difference in opioid consumption between patients administered optimal N-acetylcysteine dose or placebo.
