Trial summary

The oxidative - antioxidative balance is the crucial mechanism of opioid-induced immunomodulation. Additionally, impairement of cognitive function during opioid therapy is another important side- effect. This phenomenon was clearly described in opioids abuse. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Oxidative- Antioxidative Balance and Cognitive Functions During Opioid Therapy

The oxidative - antioxidative balance is the crucial mechanism of opioid-induced immunomodulation. Additionally, impairement of cognitive function during opioid therapy is another important side- effect. This phenomenon was clearly described in opioids abuse. This is interesting to evaluate the importance of this subjects in chronic pain patients. The aim of the study was to investigate the oxidative - antioxidative homeostasis and cognitive functions using serum total oxidative capacity (TOC) and total antioxidative capacity (TAC) tests and Brain Derivered Neutrophic Factor (BDNF) in patient with chronic non-cancer pain treated with opioids.

Read the detailed description

The project was approved in Ethical Committee and supported by Medical University of Bialystok (Poland). The serum TOC and TAC measurements were performed in total group of 50 adult patients: Study Group - 36 patients with chronic Low-Back Pain with opioids pharmacotherapy and Control Group - 14 patients, healthy volunteers. In Study Group anthropometric parameters, duration in opioid therapy, type of opioid, total dose, and form of application were registered.TOC, TAC, and BDNF measurements were performed using ImAnOx, PerOx, BDNF tests (Immundiagnostik, Germany).Data were analyzed using non-parametric tests.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing biochemical measurements in people with Pain and Opioids, run by Medical University of Bialystok at 1 site in Poland.

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 1 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 18 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Poland. 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.

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?

oxidative balance (time frame: 6 months of opioids therapy). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 18 Feb 2021.
