About this study

Official title: A Single-center, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Double-blind, Single-dose, Efficacy of PRF-108 4% and PRF-110 4% Versus Ropivacaine Solution 0.5% in an Experimental Pain Model

This is a clinical study testing PRF-108 and PRF-110 (a new extended release 4% gel formulations of ropivacaine) in an experimentally induced pain model in healthy volunteers. PRF-108 and PRF-110 are designed to deliver slow release of ropivacaine over 72 hours.

Read the detailed description

This is a clinical study testing PRF-108 and PRF-110 (a new extended release 4% gel formulations of ropivacaine) in an experimentally induced pain model in healthy volunteers. PRF-108 and PRF-110 are designed to deliver slow release of ropivacaine over 72 hours.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety (side effects if any occurs) associated with the single administration of PRF-108 or PRF-110 and evaluate their analgesic effect in an experimentally induced pain model compared with ropivacaine Solution 0.5% and Vehicle Gel.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing PRF-108, Ropivacaine and PRF-110 in people with Pain, run by PainReform LTD at 1 site in Israel.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 17 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Nov 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Israel. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The duration of analgesia (time frame: 3 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Nov 2020.
