About this study

Official title: A Prospective Study Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of 100 mcg and 200 mcg of Intranasal Fentanyl Pectin Spray as an Analgesic in Adult Males Undergoing Outpatient Cystoscopic Procedures

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of intranasally-administrated fentanyl pectin spray (Lazanda®)given to decrease the pain during cystoscopy (the passage of a telescopic instrument into the bladder for purpose of diagnosing the cause of blood in the urine, urinary complaints or any other problems with the urinary bladder). The current standard practice is to use Lidocaine jelly (a local anesthetic) given through the urethra to lubricate and decrease local pain. In this study, an additional medicine (Lazanda®) is used to reduce pain that occurs during and after the above procedure.

Read the detailed description

In this prospective study, twenty subjects will be enrolled. The first ten will receive a dose of 100mcg pectin fentanyl nasal spray (Lazanda®). The second ten will receive a dose of 200mcg pectin fentanyl nasal spray (Lazanda®) if the 100mcg was well tolerated in the first ten. In all cases, Lidocaine jelly is used as an local anesthetic in the urethra.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change from baseline in pain numeric rating scale

    The primary endpoint is the worst pain experienced at any time during the procedure.

    Pain will be assessed using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS score 0 = no pain to 10 = worst possible pain).

    Measured: within 3 hours post administration of the drug

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Oxyhemoglobin saturation

    Pulse oximetry will be recorded at baseline and every 5 minutes for 3 hours post drug-administration.

    Measured: Every 5 minutes post administration of the drug until 3 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Fentanyl pectin in people with Other Acute Pain and Pain Experienced During Cystoscopy, run by Richard C Reznichek, MD at 1 site 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 1 inclusion and 9 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 11 May 2017. 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 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Change from baseline in pain numeric rating scale (time frame: within 3 hours post administration of the drug). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01756651, which also lists 29 linked publications.

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 11 May 2017.
