About this study

The main objective of the trial is to investigate the effect of known genetic variants in organic cation transporter 1 (OCT1) on the effect of morphine after major surgery

Read the detailed description

The purpose of the experiment is to investigate the effect of known genetic variants in organic cation transporter 1 (OCT1) on the effect of morphine after major surgery. This is primarily done by investigating systemic exposure of morphine in a cohort of patients undergoing scheduled laparoscopic colon or laparoscopic rectum surgery, and as pain treatment with intravenous (iv) morphine at the end of and after surgery (primary endpoints). As a secondary endpoint, we will investigate the effect (pharmacodynamics) of morphine in the same patients by registering pain during rest and activity, side effects and the degree of sedation at appropriate time intervals.

Morphine

What participants receive

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

  • MorphineDrug

    The study was designed as an open, non-controlled drug trial, with scientists and participants blinded to the patients OCT1 status. Morphine will be given as a single dosis (0,15 mg/kg) at the end of the Surgery and later as boluses of 0,04mg/kg administrated by patient-controlled analgesia, (PCA). Blood samples with drug concentrations will be used to determine a difference in morphine AUC due to the patients OCT1 status. Questionnaire answers will be used to determine the effect of morphine due to the patients OCT1 status

Receives: Drug: Morphine

What is being measured

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

  1. Morphine Area under the curve (AUC)

    Difference in morphine AUC due to patient OCT1 status

    Measured: Blood samples will be drawn at zero, five, 10, 15, 30, 45, 60 and 90 minutes after the first morphine bolus

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Morphine effect

    Pain during rest and activity will be evaluated through a Numeric Rating Scale on the same patients where 0 is no pain and 10 is the the worst possible pain.

    Measured: Questionnaire answers will be collected with an appropriate time interval for 24 hours after the first morphine bolus

  2. Morphine effect

    side effects will be evaluated through a 5-point verbal questionnaire on the same patients where 0 is no side effects and 4 is unacceptable side effects.

    Measured: Questionnaire answers will be collected with an appropriate time interval for 24 hours after the first morphine bolus

  3. Morphine effect

    The degree of sedation will be evaluated through the Richmond Agitation and Sedation Scale (RASS) on the same patients

    Measured: Questionnaire answers will be collected with an appropriate time interval for 24 hours after the first morphine bolus

  4. Morphine effect

    The total dose of morphine used during the investigation.

    Measured: After the trial has ended (24 hours after the first morphine bolus) data containing morphine use will be collected.

  5. Morphine effect

    The number of administrations of morphine will be recorded

    Measured: After the trial has ended (24 hours after the first morphine bolus) data containing morphine use will be collected.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Morphine in people with Organic Cation Transporter 1 and Morphine, run by University of Southern Denmark at 2 sites in Denmark.

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 1 inclusion and 9 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 29 Jun 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Denmark. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Morphine Area under the curve (AUC) (time frame: Blood samples will be drawn at zero, five, 10, 15, 30, 45, 60 and 90 minutes after the first morphine bolus). 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 29 Jun 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
