Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Partial Area Under the Curve (AUC) Attained With Early and Late Heat in Each of the Three Fentanyl TDSs (Reference and Generic)

    Partial area under the flux-time curve of fentanyl calculated from 11 to 14 h for Early Heat and 18 to 21 h for Late Heat study designs Blood samples obtained at 15 min prior to patch application \[baseline\], and at 1:00, 10:00, 10:55, 11:05, 11:15, 11:25, 11:35, 11:45, 12:00, 13:00, 14:00, 16:00, 17:00, 17:55, 18:05, 18:15, 18:25, 18:35, 18:45, 19:00, 20:00, 21:00, and 22:00 h post-patch application

    six procedure days for each participant
