Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change from baseline in the number of spontaneous bowel movements during Week 4 of the 4-week treatment period

    Compare SP-333 (1, 3 \& 6 mg) with placebo in the treatment of OIC as measured by the change from baseline in the number of spontaneous bowel movements during Week 4 of the 4-week treatment period

    4 Weeks

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • To assess safety and tolerability of SP-333 in the treatment of non-malignant OIC

    4 weeks

Other Outcomes (3)

  • To evaluate stool consistency over the 4-week Treatment Period

    4 weeks

  • To evaluate constipation-related symptoms over the 4-week Treatment Period

    4 weeks

  • To evaluate bowel movement frequency responder rates [Complete Spontaneous Bowel Movements (CSBMs) and Spontaneous Bowel Movements (SBMs)] over the 4-week Treatment Period.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 75 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Must be receiving chronic, stable opioid therapy to treat non-malignant pain for at least 3 months prior to screening
  • Must have active OIC at screening
  • Active OIC must be confirmed during baseline screening bowel habit and symptom diary
  • Must be on stable diet

You may not qualify if:

  • Has history of chronic therapy for chronic constipation prior to start of opioid therapy, or any potential non-opioid cause of bowel dysfunction that may be a major contributor to the constipation (i.e., mechanical obstruction or pseudo-obstruction)
  • Use of medications that might affect bowel movement frequency or constipation-related symptoms (e.g., prokinetics, anti-diarrheal agents, laxatives other than study-defined rescue laxative)
