Study Summary

The objective of this study is to demonstrate the effectiveness and tolerability of the buprenorphine transdermal system (BTDS) (5, 10 and 20) in comparison to placebo transdermal system in subjects with moderate to severe osteoarthritis pain of the hip and knee currently treated with oral opioids. The double-blind treatment intervention duration is 4 weeks during which time supplemental analgesic medication (acetaminophen) will be provided to all subjects in addition to study drug.

Primary Outcome

Inadequate analgesia: * "average pain over the last 24 hours" score for pain at primary osteoarthritis (OA) site ≥ 5 on any 2 days of any 7-day dosing period, on a scale from 0 - 10 (0 = no pain to 10 = pain as bad as you can imagine)or; * \>1000 mg/day acetaminophen for pain at primary OA site for ≥ 2 days in any 7-day dosing period, or; * ingested nonstudy opioid analgesic medication for pain at primary OA site. Score: lowest score = shortest time to inadequate analgesia; highest score = long

Interventions

  • DRUG Buprenorphine transdermal patch
