Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Assess the efficacy of Targinact® treatment

    The primary parameter to assess the efficacy of Targinact® treatment with respect to the quality of life (overall health assessment/EQ-VAS) in patients with chronic severe pain compared to previous analgesic treatment is the absolute change in overall health score (0-100) attributed by patients during Targinact® treatment compared to previous analgesic treatment. During each visit, patients will be asked to score their overall health state between 0 (worst health state imaginable) and 100 (best health state imaginable). The absolute changes in overall health assessment from baseline at V2 and V3 will be used to compare health assessment during Targinact® treatment.

    12 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • • To assess pain (NRS) during Targinact® treatment compared to previous analgesic treatment (by physician)

    12 weeks

  • To assess constipation (BFI) during Targinact® treatment compared to previous analgesic treatment (by physician)

    12 weeks

  • To assess laxative use during Targinact® treatment compared to previous analgesic treatment (by physician)

    12 weeks

  • To assess the use of analgesic rescue medication during Targinact® treatment compared to previous analgesic treatment (by physician)

    12 weeks

  • To evaluate the quality of life (EQ-5D questionnaire) during Targinact® treatment compared to previous analgesic treatment (by patient)
