Read the detailed description
This study is a randomized (study drug assigned by chance), multicenter (when more than 1 hospital or medical school team work on a medical research study), active-controlled, parallel group (each group of participants will be treated at the same time), double-blind (neither physician nor participant knows the treatment that the participant receives) study. The duration of the treatment will be 2 days and will be conducted in 4 periods: screening period (from 33 to 2 days before study drug administration to the first surgical incision), surgical period (to 1 day before study drug administration), qualification period (1 day) and double-blind treatment period (1 to 2 days). Participants will be randomly assigned to 2 groups: study drug treatment group (ER) and comparator treatment group (IR). Participants will be administered 2 tablets of ER tramadol HCl (75 milligram [mg])/acetaminophen (650 mg) along with 2 tablets of placebo matching to IR tramadol HCl/acetaminophen in study drug treatment group; and 2 tablets of IR tramadol HCl (37.5 mg)/acetaminophen (325 mg) along with 2 tablets of placebo matching to ER tramadol HCl/acetaminophen in comparator treatment group respectively at 0, 12, 24 and 36 hours. Participants will also be administered 2 tablets of placebo matching to IR tramadol HCl/acetaminophen in study drug treatment group; and 2 tablets of IR tramadol HCl/acetaminophen in comparator treatment group respectively at 6, 18, 30 and 42 hours. Participants will be administered investigational product at 6-hour interval from the time of the first investigational product administration over 48 hours. Efficacy will be assessed using 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS). Participants' safety will be monitored throughout the study.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Sum of Pain Intensity Difference (SPID) at Hour 48
The SPID is time-weighted sum of all observations of pain intensity difference (PID) collected at each measurement time point from Baseline to 48 hours. PID: Baseline pain intensity (PI) minus current PI; PI was assessed using 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS, 0=no pain to 10=worst pain imaginable). PI score ranges from 0-3 where 0=no pain and 3=severe pain. PI score of 0=NRS score of 0, PI score of 1=NRS score >=1 and <=3, PI score of 2=NRS score of >=4 and <=6 and PI score of 3=NRS score of >=7 and <=10. Total score for SPID at 48 hours (SPID48) ranges from -144 (worst) to 144 (best).
Measured: Hour 48
Secondary outcomes (7)
Sum of Pain Intensity Difference (SPID) at Hour 6, 12 and 24
The SPID is time-weighted sum of all observations of PID collected at each measurement time point from Baseline to 24 hours. PID: Baseline PI minus current PI; PI was assessed using 11-point NRS, 0=no pain to 10=worst pain imaginable. PI score ranges from 0-3 where 0=no pain and 3=severe pain. PI score of 0=NRS score of 0, PI score of 1=NRS score >=1 and <=3, PI score of 2=NRS score of >=4 and <=6 and PI score of 3=NRS score of >=7 and <=10. Total score ranges from -18 (worst) to 18 (best) for SPID6, -36 (worst) to 36 (best) for SPID12 and -72 (worst) to 72 (best) for SPID24.
Measured: Hour 6, 12, 24
Total Pain Relief (TOTPAR) Score
Pain relief was measured on a 5-point categorical scale of 0-4 (0=no change, 1=slight relief, 2=moderate relief, 3=fair relief, 4=pain resolved completely). TOTPAR was calculated as the time-weighted sum over all pain relief up to 48 hours. Total score ranges from 0 (worst) to 24 (best) for TOTPAR6, 0 (worst) to 48 (best) for TOTPAR12, 0 (worst) to 96 (best) for TOTPAR24 and 0 (worst) to 192 (best) for TOTPAR48.
Measured: Hour 6, 12, 24, 48
Sum of Total Pain Relief and Sum of Pain Intensity Difference (SPRID)
The SPRID is sum of SPID and TOTPAR. In SPID, PI score ranges from 0-3 where 0=no pain and 3=severe pain. PI score of 0=NRS score of 0, PI score of 1=NRS score >=1 and <= 3, PI score of 2=NRS score of >=4 and <=6 and PI score of 3=NRS score of >=7 and <=10. In TOTPAR, pain relief score ranges from 0-4 (0=no change, 1=slight relief, 2=moderate relief, 3=fair relief, 4=pain resolved completely). Total score ranges from -18 (worst) to 42 (best) for SPRID6, -36 (worst) to 84 (best) for SPRID12, -72 (worst) to 168 (best) for SPRID24 and -144 (worst) to 336 (best) for SPRID48.
Measured: Hour 6, 12, 24, 48
Time to the First Rescue Medication Administered Because of Insufficient Pain Relief
The time until administration of the first rescue medication (rescue medications are medicines that are administered to the participants when the efficacy of the study drug is not satisfactory, or the effect of the study drug is too great and is likely to cause a hazard to the participant, or to manage an emergency situation) because of insufficient pain relief after administration of the study drug was recorded. Rescue medications allowed were oral or injection of tramadol HCl (intramuscular [directly into muscle] or intravenous injection [directly into vein]).
Measured: Baseline up to Day 3
Number of Doses of Rescue Medication Administered Because of Insufficient Pain Relief
The frequency of the rescue medication (rescue medications are medicines that are administered to the participants when the efficacy of the study drug is not satisfactory, or the effect of the study drug is too great and is likely to cause a hazard to the participant, or to manage an emergency situation) because of insufficient pain relief was measured after administration of the study drug. Rescue medications allowed were oral or injection of tramadol HCl (intramuscular or intravenous injection).
Measured: Baseline up to Day 3
Dosage of Rescue Medication Administered Because of Insufficient Pain Relief
The dosage of the rescue medication (rescue medications are medicines that are administered to the participants when the efficacy of the study drug is not satisfactory, or the effect of the study drug is too great and is likely to cause a hazard to the participant, or to manage an emergency situation) because of insufficient pain relief was measured after administration of the study drug. Rescue medications allowed were oral or injection of tramadol HCl (intramuscular or intravenous injection).
Measured: Baseline up to Day 3
Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) Score
The PGIC was used to assess the degree of participant's overall improvement with treatment, and participants were instructed to assess how much the overall status had been improved after investigational product administration compared to baseline in 7 grades (1=Very much improved and B=Very much worsened).
Measured: Day 3

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Tramadol HCl/Acetaminophen ER and Tramadol HCl/Acetaminophen IR in people with Pain, Postoperative, run by Janssen Korea, Ltd., Korea.
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 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jun 2013. 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?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 20 Jun 2013). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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?
Sum of Pain Intensity Difference (SPID) at Hour 48 (time frame: Hour 48). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01814878, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 20 Jun 2013.
