Trial summary

Adenosine A1 and A2 receptors are widely distributed in the brain and spinal cord and represent a non-opiate target for pain management. Activated spinal A1 receptors inhibit sensory transmission by inhibiting the slow ventral root potential, which is the C-fiber-evoked excitatory response associated with nociception.

About this study

Official title: A Phase 2, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Escalating Dose-Response Trial of Intravenous Adenosine for Perioperative Analgesia in Females Undergoing Abdominal Hysterectomy or Myomectomy

Adenosine A1 and A2 receptors are widely distributed in the brain and spinal cord and represent a non-opiate target for pain management. Activated spinal A1 receptors inhibit sensory transmission by inhibiting the slow ventral root potential, which is the C-fiber-evoked excitatory response associated with nociception. Adenosine may inhibit intrinsic neurons through an increase in K+ conductance and presynaptic inhibition of sensory nerve terminals to inhibit the release of substance P and perhaps glutamate. Although adenosine A3 receptors are not found in the nervous system, adenosine is also known to have anti-inflammatory properties that may contribute to pain relief in the peripheral setting of inflammation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing adenosine in people with Perioperative Pain, run by Xsira Pharmaceuticals at 8 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 3 inclusion and 4 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 2 Aug 2006. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 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. 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?

Dose-response. 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 2 Aug 2006.
