  • Females who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or plan to become pregnant during the study
  • Current cancer-related pain or received chemotherapy within 6 months of screening
  • Subjects receiving opioid analgesic medication < 60 mg MSE per day within 28 days of screening
  • De novo subjects receiving opioid analgesic medication at doses of > 160 mg MSE per day within 28 days of screening
  • Subjects with a history of other chronic painful conditions, other than the index CP condition, which require frequent analgesic medication
  • Reflex sympathetic dystrophy or causalgia (complex regional pain syndrome), acute spinal cord compression, cauda equina compression, acute nerve root compression, meningitis, or discitis
  • History of allergy or contraindications to any opioid or acetaminophen
  • Surgical procedure for relief of pain within 6 months, or nerve/plexus block within 28 days of screening

Treatment and study plan

EN3409

Drug

Open-Label Buprenorphine HCI Buccal Film at doses 300-900 mcg twice daily

Other names: Buprenorphine HCI Buccal Film 300-900 mcg twice daily

Primary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline to Week 48 in Daily Average NRS Pain Intensity Score

    Time frame: 48 weeks

    The NRS Pain intensity score is a segmented version of a visual analog scale used to measure pain. The scale is from 0 (no pain) to 10. Scores between greater than 0 and 3 are considered mild pain, scores from greater than 3 to 6 are moderate and greater than 6 to 10 are severe. The daily average is calculated and the change from baseline at week 48 is presented.
