About this study

Official title: Naldebain® Extended-release Injection After Cesarean Section in Pain Management: a Prospective Observational Study

Cesarean section is one of the surgeries most commonly leading to postoperative severe acute pain. It was reported that the mean worst pain intensity reached to 6.14 one day after cesarean section in Germany. Inadequate pain management may result in the cardiorespiratory complications, late recovery, and postoperative chronic pain. According to a series of pain management article published in the Lancent in 2019, the incidence of post-cesarean section chronic pain was 55%, including 12% of severe chronic pain. Extended-release dinalbuphine sebacate, a prodrug of nalbuphine, is a novel analgesic developed in Taiwan and the indication is moderate to severe postoperative pain. After intramuscular injected, dinalbuphine sebacate will be released to blood stream and immediately hydrolyzed. In Taiwan, dinalbuphine sebacate has been used for alleviating pain after several types of surgeries, such as colorectal surgery, orthopaedics, gynecology and obstetrics. However, few post-marketing studies investigated the efficacy and safety of dinalbuphine sebacate.

Read the detailed description

This is an observational, prospective, single arm study. This study is aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of dinalbuphine sebacate in subjects undergoing cesarean section. Written informed consent are obtained before subjects participate in the study. Eligible subjects will be visited twice daily during stay in hospital. Pain intensity, consumption of analgesics, adverse reaction, and the residues of dinalbuphine sebacate and nalbuphine in milk will all be analyzed.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Dinalbuphine sebacateDrug

    Also called NALDEBAIN

    After giving the birth, subjects are intramuscularly injected with a single dose of 150 mg of dinalbuphine sebacate (DS). DS is a prodrug of nalbuphine. After injeciton, DS are released to blood stream and hydrolyzed immediately. The onset of action is 12 to 24 hours and the analgesic effect can last about 5 to 7 days.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of complication

    Analgesic-related complication occurring in the period of hospital stay will be recorded, such as dizziness, nausea, vomiting, and injection site reaction.

    Measured: Within 5 days after injection of dinalbuphine sebacate

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Post-cesarean section pain intensity

    Pain intensity is assessed by numerical rating scale (NRS) twice daily during stay

    Measured: Within 5 days after delivery

  2. Consumption of analgesics

    Analgesics consumed during stay of hospital are recorded.

    Measured: Within 5 days after delivery

  3. Concentration of nalbuphine in breast milk

    Dinalbuphine sebacate is a prodrug of nalbuphine. After intramuscular injection, dinalbuphine sebacate are slowly released to blood stream and immediately hydrolyzed. The breast milk is collected twice daily within 5 days after cesarean section, and tested by HPLC.

    Measured: Within 5 days after delivery

  4. Concentration of dinalbuphine sebacate in breast milk

    Dinalbuphine sebacate is a prodrug of nalbuphine. After intramuscular injection, dinalbuphine sebacate are slowly released to blood stream and immediately hydrolyzed. The breast milk is collected twice daily within 5 days after cesarean section, and tested by HPLC.

    Measured: Within 5 days after delivery

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Chi-Kang Lin, MD (+886-2-87923311 ext. 10083, kung568@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of complication (time frame: Within 5 days after injection of dinalbuphine sebacate). 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 6 Jul 2022.
