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 Brivoligide Injection in Patients With a Pain Catastrophizing Scale Score ≥16 Undergoing Unilateral Total Knee Arthroplasty

This is a multi-center, Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of brivoligide injection administered intrathecally before surgery in patients with a Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) score ≥16 undergoing primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty.

Read the detailed description

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and postoperative pain reducing efficacy of a single preoperative intrathecal administration of brivoligide injection in patients with a Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) score ≥16 undergoing unilateral total knee arthroplasty.

Potential subjects will be prescreened for PCS scores of 16 or greater in advance; pre-qualified patients will be invited to the investigative site for informed consent and full screening within 30 days of randomization. Patients providing informed consent and meeting all study eligibility criteria will be enrolled in the study on the day of surgery (Day 1). Safety assessments will be performed through Day 28; efficacy assessments will be conducted at the follow-up visits and daily via electronic diary by subjects through Day 42. Follow up visits will occur on Days 7, 14, 21, 28, and 42.

Being tested
Brivoligide Injection 660 mg/6 mL, Placebo 6 mL

What is being measured

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

  1. Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) Pain with Walking 15 Meters

    Least squares mean pain rating (NRS) with walking during the 15-meter walk Day 7 to Day 28

    Measured: Day 7 to Day 28

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) Pain at Rest

    Least squares mean pain rating (NRS) at rest Day 7 to Day 28

    Measured: Day 7 to Day 28

  2. Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) Pain with 90 Degrees Passive Knee Flexion

    Least squares mean pain rating (NRS) with passive knee flexion to 90 degrees from Day 7 to Day 28

    Measured: Day 7 to Day 28

  3. Total Postoperative Opioid Use

    Total use of postoperative opioid medications (morphine equivalents) to Day 42

    Measured: Postoperative through Day 42

  4. Time to Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) Pain ≤ 3 for Worst Pain

    Time to achieve NRS pain score ≤ 3 for worst pain

    Measured: Postoperative through Day 42

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Brivoligide Injection 660 mg/6 mL in people with Pain, Postoperative, run by Adynxx, Inc. at 2 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 7 inclusion and 12 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 13 Jul 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 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 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?

Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) Pain with Walking 15 Meters (time frame: Day 7 to Day 28). 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 13 Jul 2020.
