A Study to Assess the Safety and Tolerability of Oxycodone Hydrochloride 50mg/mL Administered as an Infusion
Summary
Assessing the safety and tolerability of Oxycodone Hydrochloride 50mg/mL in subjects with severe cancer pain.
Description
This is study involving a treatment phase of up to 20 days. During this time patients will receive Oxycodone Hydrochloride 50mg/ml as a subcutaneous infusion. During the treatment phase, safety will be assessed by documentation of type and frequency of spontaneously reported adverse events and adverse events noted after assessment of the infusion site (every 24 hours and when resited). The subjects will be followed up for 7 days to collect information on ongoing AEs/SAEs and any new AEs/SAEs that may have occurred.

A narcotic analgesic that can be used for the relief of most types of moderate to severe pain, including postoperative pain and the pain of labor. Prolonged use may lead to dependence of the morphine type; withdrawal symptoms appear more rapidly than with morphine and are of shorter duration.
Pain Clinics
Facilities providing diagnostic, therapeutic, and palliative services for patients with severe chronic pain. These may be free-standing clinics or hospital-based and serve ambulatory or inpatient populations. The approach is usually multidisciplinary. These clinics are often referred to as "acute pain services". (From Br Med Bull 1991 Jul;47(3):762-85)
Mechlorethamine
A vesicant and necrotizing irritant destructive to mucous membranes. It was formerly used as a war gas. The hydrochloride is used as an antineoplastic in Hodgkin's disease and lymphomas. It causes severe gastrointestinal and bone marrow damage.
Oxymorphone
An opioid analgesic with actions and uses similar to those of MORPHINE, apart from an absence of cough suppressant activity. It is used in the treatment of moderate to severe pain, including pain in obstetrics. It may also be used as an adjunct to anesthesia. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p1092)
