| NCT02044094 | Multiple Dose Study of Blockade of Opioid Effects by Injections of Buprenorphine in Participants With Opioid Disorder | PHASE2 | COMPLETED | 39 | — | — | Nov 1, 2013 | Jul 1, 2014 | Apr 24, 2018 | 1 | United States |
The study's primary objective was to determine if the opioid blocking effect for the first injection of buprenorphine 300 mg (RBP-6000) on Day 1 was not inferior to placebo when challenged by hydromorphone. Participants completed a visual analog scale (VAS) that ranged from 0 - 100, with 0 meaning not at all, and 100 meaning the most extreme liking of the drug 30 minutes (± 5 minutes) before and 15, 30 , 45, 60, 75, 90, 120, 150, 180, 210, 240, 270, and 300 minutes (± 5 minutes) after hydromorphone administration on the challenge days listed in the time frame field. The drug in question was hydromorphone (6 or 18 mg) or placebo. For each hydromorphone challenge week, a mixed-effects model with period (where period is day), hydromorphone sequence, and hydromorphone dose as fixed effects and subject nested within hydromorphone sequence as a random effect were used for analysis.
| Arm | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| depot buprenorphine | EXPERIMENTAL | Participants were treated with RBP-6000 300-mg in a single subcutaneous injection on Days 1 and 29 following a prior 14 day stabilization period (day -14 to day -1) of buprenorphine and naloxone (SUBOXONE) . Challenges consist of participants receiving on three consecutive days intramuscular (IM) injections of hydromorphone 0 mg (placebo), 6 mg and 18 mg doses during weeks 1-12 in randomized sequential order. |
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Buprenorphine | DRUG | A subcutaneous depot injection of buprenorphine 300 mg was delivered using the ATRIGEL® Delivery System on study days 1 and 29. As the depot degrades, buprenorphine is released into systemic circulation over an extended period of time. |
| buprenorphine and naloxone | DRUG | Buprenorphine and naloxone (SUBOXONE® sublingual film) is given to participants on days -14 to day -1 (the SUBOXONE sublingual film stabilization period) or as soon as they start to experience withdrawal symptoms. SUBOXONE sublingual film may be initially administered several times daily until a stable dose between 8 mg and 24 mg daily is established. |
| hydromorphone | DRUG | Hydromorphone IM challenges are administered during the screening period (days -17 to -15), on days -3 to -1 during the buprenorphine and naloxone (SUBOXONE sublingual film) stabilization period, and weekly during the 12-week treatment period after administration of RBP-6000. Each challenge consists of 3 days during which participants are randomly administered 0 mg (placebo), 6 mg and 18 mg hydromorphone via intramuscular (IM) injection daily in varying blinded sequences. Additionally, hydromorphone can also be earned during the afternoon Reinforcing effects tasks sessions up to the same randomized dose received in the hydromorphone challenge that morning (or money can be chosen). |
| placebo | DRUG | Placebo for hydromorphone administered via intramuscular injection during each challenge. |
