What is being measured

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

  1. The primary outcome measures are clearance (CL/F) and apparent central volume of distribution (Vc/F) estimated using standard population nonlinear mixed effects methodology.

    Measured: Up to 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The number of participants with adverse events as a measure of safety.

    Measured: Up to 10 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Buprenorphine IV in people with Other Acute Postoperative Pain and Prolonged Endotracheal Intubation, run by Purdue Pharma LP.

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 10 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Feb 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.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

The primary outcome measures are clearance (CL/F) and apparent central volume of distribution (Vc/F) estimated using standard population nonlinear mixed effects methodology. (time frame: Up to 24 hours). 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 4 Feb 2016.
