About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Open-label, Partially Randomized, 3 Treatment Groups, Multi-Site Study Assessing Pharmacokinetics After Administration of the Once-Weekly and Once-Monthly, Long-Acting Subcutaneous Injectable Depot of Buprenorphine (CAM2038) at Different Injection Sites in Opioid-Dependent Subjects With Chronic Pain

Phase II, open label, partially randomized, three treatment group study designed to evaluate the steady state pharmacokinetics of buprenorphine and norbuprenorphine following repeated subcutaneous administrations of CAM2038.

Read the detailed description

This is a phase II, open label, partially randomized, three treatment group study designed to evaluate the steady state pharmacokinetics of buprenorphine and norbuprenorphine following repeated subcutaneous administrations of CAM2038 weekly and monthly at different injection sites and to evaluate the steady state pharmacokinetics of buprenorphine and norbuprenorphine after repeated subcutaneous administration of CAM2038 monthly in opioid dependent subjects with a history of chronic non cancer pain. The study will involve three phases: Screening, Treatment, and Follow up.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing CAM2038 in people with Opioid Use Disorder and Chronic Pain, run by Braeburn Pharmaceuticals at 3 sites in United States.

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 8 inclusion and 18 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 30 Apr 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in United States. 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.

What does this phase mean?

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 30 Apr 2020). 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?

AUCss(Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve During a 7-day Dosing Interval at Steady State) for Each Injection Site, i.e., Buttock (Reference), Abdomen, Thigh and Back of Upper Arm for the Evaluable Pharmacokinetic (PKEVAL) Population (time frame: PK samples were collected at pre-dose and at 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 10, 24, 30, 48, 72, 96, 120 and 168 hours post-CAM2038 q1w for Doses/Weeks 4, 5, 6, and 7.). The study lists 18 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02710526, 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 30 Apr 2020.
