About this study

Official title: Association Between Clinical Effect of Continuous Morphine Administration in Patients After Major Surgery and Pharmacogenetics: Perspective Observational Clinical Study

Identification of the genetic polymorphisms that could be correlated either with a better clinical response or with a major predisposition of patients to develop tolerance and/or side effects to the treatment with morphine.

Read the detailed description

Valuation of the rescue doses necessary to maintain NRS<4 in the first 24 hours post-surgery in the two groups of patients, A e B. Group A: homozygous patients for the more frequent allele of the polymorphism A118G of OPRM1 gene (about 80%); group B: both homozygous and heterozygous patients for the less frequent allele (about 20%).

Conditions
Anesthesia, Surgery
Being tested
morphine chlorhydrate
Keywords

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • morphine chlorhydrateDrug

    Also called morfina cloridrato

    The drug will be administrated by a bolus 45 minutes before the end of the surgery, with the following modalities: bolus with morphine chlorhydrate 0.15 mg/kg ± 20%. Also acetaminophene 1g and ketoprofen 160 mg (ketorolac 30mg) will be administrated during the operation.

    At the exit of the operative compartment patients will have an continuous infusion for 48h with morphine chlorhydrate 0,02 mg/kg/h.

    Moreover, a rescue dose therapy will be prescribed with ketoprofen 160 mg or ketorolac 30mg (in case of allergy acetaminophene 1g) if NRS<4 maximum x 3 daily.

    Postoperative analgesic treatment is lasting 48h for each patient (between starting of the infusion (T0) and the following 48h).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Assessment of the rescue doses in the two groups homozygous patients for the more frequent allele of the polymorphism A118G of OPRM1 gene; group B: both homozygous and heterozygous patients for the less frequent allele

    Valuation of the rescue doses necessary to maintain NRS<4 in the first 24 hours post-surgery in the two groups of patients, A e B. Group A: homozygous patients for the more frequent allele of the polymorphism A118G of OPRM1 gene (about 80%); group B: both homozygous and heterozygous patients for the less frequent allele (about 20%).

    Measured: first 24 h after surgery

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Variants at the loci OPRM1, COMT, UGTs, ESR1,towards median pain measure

    Frequency of the variants at the loci OPRM1, COMT, UGTs, ESR1, both in patients with NRS ≤4 and in those having NRS >4 at least once during 24 hours.

    Measured: during 24 h postsurgery

  2. Variants at the loci OPRM1, COMT, UGTs, ESR1,towards median pain measure

    Frequency of the variants at the loci OPRM1, COMT, UGTs, ESR1, both in patients with NRS ≤4 and in those having NRS >4 at least once during the period between 24-48 hours postsurgery.

    Measured: period between 24 - 48 h postsurgery

  3. Pharmacokinetics of morphine during continuous administration after surgery

    Pharmacokinetic study of both morphine and its principal active and/or toxic metabolites (M3G and M6G).

    Measured: 48 h after surgery

  4. Detection of the possible side effects.

    Detection of the possible side effects after continuous morphine administration

    Measured: 72 h postopratively

  5. Detection of the association between M3G/M6G ratio and polymorphisms of UGTs

    Detection of the association between M3G/M6G ratio and polymorphisms of UGTs and its possible side effects.

    Measured: within 72 h postoperatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Anesthesia and Surgery, run by Fondazione IRCCS Policlinico San Matteo di Pavia at 1 site in Italy.

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 5 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Mar 2017. 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 Italy. 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Assessment of the rescue doses in the two groups homozygous patients for the more frequent allele of the polymorphism A118G of OPRM1 gene; group B: both homozygous and heterozygous patients for the less frequent allele (time frame: first 24 h after surgery). 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 3 Mar 2017.
