About this study

Official title: An Open-label Safety and Pharmacokinetic Study of INL-001 in Adults Following Open Ventral Hernia Repair, Abdominoplasty, Open Abdominal Hysterectomy, Laparoscopic-assisted Colectomy, and Reduction Mammoplasty

This is a multicenter, Phase 3, open-label, safety, tolerability, and characterization of pharmacokinetics study of the INL 001 (bupivacaine HCl) implant, at 300 mg, in patients following various soft-tissue surgeries: open ventral hernia repair, abdominoplasty, open abdominal hysterectomy, laparoscopic-assisted colectomy, and reduction mammoplasty.

Read the detailed description

This is a multicenter, Phase 3, open-label, safety, tolerability, and characterization of pharmacokinetics study of the INL-001 (bupivacaine HCl) implant, at 300 mg, in patients following various soft-tissue surgeries: open ventral hernia repair, abdominoplasty, open abdominal hysterectomy, laparoscopic-assisted colectomy, and reduction mammoplasty. After a screening period, eligible patients will undergo study surgery under general anesthesia and have INL-001 implanted intraoperatively. Efficacy is also an exploratory measure in this study.

The study includes a screening period, an inpatient period (preoperative, intraoperative, postoperative) of approximately 5 days, and an outpatient follow-up period (up to 30 days after treatment). Posttreatment safety and/or efficacy assessments will be made throughout the study and as specifically scheduled through 96 hours posttreatment, on day 7 (telephone), on day 15 (clinic visit), and on day 30 (clinic visit). Unless the investigator determines further hospitalization is necessary, patients will be discharged approximately 96 hours posttreatment (inpatient day 5).

During the screening period, all patients will undergo eligibility and other screening and safety assessments. In addition, the investigator will administer the Pain Catastrophizing Scale (screening only) as an exploratory measure and the 15-item Quality of Recovery (QoR-15) questionnaire (baseline).

Adverse event and concomitant medication information, including use of rescue pain medication, will be collected throughout the study (inpatient and outpatient). Surgical wound healing/grading assessments and assessment for signs and symptoms potentially indicative of systemic bupivacaine toxicity will be made.

Blood samples for pharmacokinetic assessments will be collected from patients at multiple time points for the measurement of concentrations of bupivacaine in plasma.

After surgery, patient reports of pain intensity using an 11-point numeric pain rating scale (NPRS) will be recorded at multiple time points through 96 hours posttreatment. Patients will be permitted rescue medication (oral and/or intravenous) to manage breakthrough pain when it occurs. The QoR-15 questionnaire and Patient Global Assessment (for pain control) will be administered on an inpatient basis and on day 7. The Opioid Related Symptom Distress Scale will be administered on an inpatient basis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing INL-001 (bupivacaine hydrochloride) implant in people with Pain, Postoperative and Hernia, Ventral, run by Innocoll 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 4 inclusion and 5 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 13 Feb 2023. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Evaluate the safety and tolerability (time frame: Day 1 through Day 30). 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 13 Feb 2023.
