About this study
Official title: A Post-Marketing Surveillance (PMS) Study on the Safety and Effectiveness of Prolonged Release Tapentadol Hydrochloride Among Adult Filipino Patients With Moderate To Severe Chronic Non-Cancer Pain
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of prolonged release tapentadol hydrochloride for the relief of moderate to severe chronic non-cancer pain among Filipino patients.
Read the detailed description
This is an open-label (all people know the identity of the intervention), multi-center (study conducted at multiple sites), observational study (study in which the investigators/ physicians observe the patients and measure their outcomes). The study will enroll approximately 100 patients who will be taking prolonged release tapentadol hydrochloride with a dosing regimen stipulated in the product insert. As this is an observational study, assessment of patient will be based on the accepted clinical practice in the Philippines. Patients will be monitored at baseline (Day 1) and throughout the 84-day treatment period of prolonged release tapentadol hydrochloride (every 7 days for the first two weeks, and thereafter every 28 days for the next three months) for effectiveness with the help of short form Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) questionnaire. Safety evaluations will include assessment of adverse events, clinical laboratory tests, and co-morbid conditions. The total study will be conducted for 3 years and the duration of treatment will be for 84 days.

What participants receive

No interventionDrug
Also called Nucynta PR
This is an observational study. Prolonged release tapentadol hydrochloride will be administered as per the recommended doses approved in Philippines. The recommended oral starting dose is 50 mg, 100 mg, 150 mg, 200 mg, or 250 mg every 12 hours, with or without food depending on the initial pain intensity and thereafter, the dose will be adjusted to maintain adequate analgesia with acceptable tolerability. The dosing regimen will be individualized according to the severity of pain being treated, the previous treatment experience, and the ability to monitor patients.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Prolonged release tapentadol | Patients will be taking prolonged release tapentadol hydrochloride as per the product insert approved in Philippines. Receives: Drug: No intervention |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Number of patients with incidence of adverse events and adverse drug reactions
Measured: From the date of first exposure of patient to the study medication until 30 days after the last dose of the study medication and at anytime the investigator deems it as necessary, as assessed for 3 years
Secondary outcomes (1)
The short form Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) questionnaire scores
The short form BPI allows patients to rate the severity of their pain on a scale of 0 (no pain) to 10 (pain as bad as you can imagine) and the degree to which their pain interferes with common dimensions of feeling and function (general activity, walking, work, mood, enjoyment of life, relations with others, and sleep) on a scale of 0 (no interference) to 10 (interferes completely).
Measured: Baseline (Day 1), Day 7, Day 14 and Day 28, Day 56, and Day 84
