NCT00315458

Brief Summary

The original objective of this study was to assess the safety and efficacy of the buprenorphine transdermal system (BTDS) (5, 10, and 20) in comparison to placebo transdermal system in subjects with moderate to severe osteoarthritis pain. However, this study was terminated early with only 35% of the planned sample size, therefore the primary objective is changed to focus on the safety evaluations.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) as a Measure of Safety

    For the Run-in and double-blind phases of the study, the focus of this study was changed before unblinding to a safety study due to early termination and having enrolled only 35% of the planned sample size. Therefore, the safety data is presented for the run-in and double-blind and overall exposure to BTDS, which includes the extension phase.
