About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Randomized Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of a Single Intrathecal Preoperative Administration of AYX1 Injection in Patients Undergoing Unilateral Total Knee Arthroplasty

The objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety and analgesic efficacy of a single preoperative intrathecal administration of AYX1 Injection in patients undergoing unilateral total knee arthroplasty.

Read the detailed description

This is a multi-center, Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of AYX1 Injection administered intrathecally before surgery in patients undergoing primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Subjects will be randomized on the day of surgery to receive either intrathecal AYX1 Injection or intrathecal placebo just prior to surgery. Study assessments will be conducted during the inpatient period through 48 hours; follow-up visits will be performed through Study Day 90.

Being tested
AYX1 Injection 660 mg/6 mL, Placebo Injection 6 mL
Keywords

Medical subject headings

    Also called Brivoligide 660 mg/6 mL

    6 mL solution for intrathecal injection with 660 mg of AYX1 (Brivoligide)

What is being measured

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

  1. Mean pain with walking during the 15 meter walk test Day 7 to Day 28

    Mean pain rating on the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) with walking during the 15 meter walk test during the outpatient period from Day 7 to Day 28

    Measured: 7-28 days post-surgery

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Percentage of subjects with NRS pain score ≥ 4 during the 15 meter walk at Day 90

    Percentage of subjects with the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) pain score ≥ 4 during the 15 meter walk at Day 90

    Measured: at 90 days post-surgery

  2. Mean pain rating (NRS) at rest Day 7 to Day 28

    Mean pain rating with the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) at rest Day 7 to Day 28

    Measured: 7-28 days post-surgery

  3. Total use of postoperative opioid medications (morphine equivalents) post-discharge to Day 90

    Total use of postoperative opioid medications (morphine equivalents) post-discharge to Day 90

    Measured: post-hospital discharge through 90 days post-surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing AYX1 Injection 660 mg/6 mL in people with Post-surgical Pain, run by Adynxx, Inc. at 9 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 6 inclusion and 15 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 17 Oct 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 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. 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 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?

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?

Mean pain with walking during the 15 meter walk test Day 7 to Day 28 (time frame: 7-28 days post-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 17 Oct 2018.
