The pain intensity difference (PID) at each evaluation time point after the dose of study drug is the difference in pain intensity at the specific evaluation time point and baseline pain intensity \[PID(evaluation time after the first dose) = PI(baseline) - PI(evaluation time after the first dose)\]. A pain intensity score ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain) is obtained at baseline and at protocol-specified time points throughout the 24 hour period. The time-weighted SPID24 is the time-weighted summed PID over the 24-hour study period. A negative score indicates an increase in pain intensity and a higher score indicates a greater decrease in pain intensity.The scores ranged from - 72 to 204.
The pain intensity difference (PID) at each evaluation time point after the dose of study drug is the difference in pain intensity at the specific evaluation time point and baseline pain intensity \[PID(evaluation time after the first dose) = PI(baseline) - PI(evaluation time after the first dose)\]. A pain intensity score ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain) is obtained at baseline and at protocol-specified time points and throughout the 48 hour period. The time-weighted SPID48 is the time-weighted summed PID over the 48-hour study period. A negative score indicates an increase in pain intensity and a higher score indicates a greater decrease in pain intensity.The scores ranged from -144 to 408.

A negative score indicates an increase in pain intensity and a higher score indicates a greater decrease in pain intensity. The scores ranged from -239 to 624.
Total pain relief over the 24-hour study period. A higher TOTPAR score means a greater relief in pain. Range of scores was from 0.00 to 96.00.
Total pain relief over the 48-hour study period. A higher TOTPAR score means a greater relief in pain. Range of scores was from 0.00 to 192.00.
Total pain relief over the 72-hour study period. A higher TOTPAR means a greater relief in pain. Range of scores was from 0.00 to 288.00.
At protocol-specified time points, the patient is asked to self-record his/her current level of pain on an 11-point numerical rating scale where 0 equals no pain and 10 equals the worst possible pain.
The PID at each evaluation time point after the dose of study drug is the difference in pain intensity at the specific evaluation time point and baseline pain intensity \[PID(evaluation time after the first dose) = PI(baseline) - PI(evaluation time after the first dose)\]. The higher the PID score, the lower the pain intensity. The scores ranged from - 239 to 624.
At protocol-specified time points, the patient is asked to self-record his/her current level of pain relief on 5-point numerical rating scale where 0 equaled no pain relief and 4 equaled complete pain relief. The baseline score references the baseline pain intensity score and the following timepoints reference pain relief scores.

Questionnaire regarding the usability of Zalviso completed by HCPs who had set up at least 5 Zalviso Systems for patients
Average number of study drug doses used per hour, adjusting by treatment exposure time and study period
Supplemental opioid medication (2 mg IV morphine) was allowed in the first 30 minutes after the first on-demand dose of study drug had been administered, if necessary, to keep a patient comfortable. Otherwise, supplemental opioid medication (2 mg IV morphine, no more frequently than hourly) was allowed for pain due to ambulation or with the initiation of passive range of motion therapy throughout the remainder of the study.

Zalviso is used for the management of moderate-to-severe acute pain. It is an investigational small molecule being developed by Talphera, Inc. (NASDAQ: TLPH). The drug is delivered through the Zalviso System, which administers sufentanil sublingual tablets.
Zalviso contains sufentanil, an opioid analgesic that targets mu-opioid receptors in the central nervous system. By binding to these receptors, it modulates pain signaling pathways to provide relief from moderate-to-severe acute pain.
Zalviso is being developed by Talphera, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company traded on NASDAQ under the ticker symbol TLPH. Talphera is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Zalviso System for acute pain management.
Zalviso is in Phase 3 clinical development. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by the FDA. A Phase 3 study has been completed, but the drug remains under investigation and is not yet available for commercial use.
Zalviso has one completed Phase 3 clinical trial, identified as NCT02662764. This study evaluated the overall performance of the Zalviso System (sufentanil sublingual tablet system) 15 mcg in 320 participants with moderate-to-severe acute pain in the United States.
Zalviso is a branded drug-device combination product that delivers sufentanil sublingual tablets. Sufentanil is the active pharmaceutical ingredient, while Zalviso refers to the specific system designed to administer it for acute pain management.
