About this study

Official title: A Phase 2, Randomized, Double-blind, Comparator- and Placebo-controlled Study to Evaluate the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Efficacy of TLC590 for Postsurgical Pain Management Following Bunionectomy

This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, 2-part comparator- and placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, PK, and efficacy of TLC590 via a single infiltrative local administration in adult subjects following bunionectomy.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, 2-part comparator- and placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, PK, and efficacy of TLC590 via a single infiltrative local administration in adult subjects following bunionectomy.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of TLC590 for post-surgical pain management in subjects following bunionectomy.

The secondary objectives of this study are:

  • To evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile and dose-exposure relationship of TLC590, as well as the bioavailability as compared with Naropin®.
  • To evaluate the safety and tolerability of TLC590 for post-surgical pain management in subjects following bunionectomy.
  • To evaluate the exposure-response relationship between PK parameters and pain intensity.

The study will be divided into two parts:

Part 1: Blinded Pharmacokinetics of TLC590 and Naropin®. Approximately 48 subjects will be randomized to treatments.

Part 2: Efficacy and Safety of TLC590 versus bupivacaine and Placebo. Part 2 of the study will randomize approximately 150 evaluable subjects who meet all entry criteria.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing TLC590, Naropin® and Normal Saline in people with Hallux Valgus, run by Taiwan Liposome Company at 5 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 12 inclusion and 28 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 7 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 5 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?

AUC of numerical pain rating scale (time frame: 0-24 hours, 0-72 hours). 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 7 Apr 2020.
