Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: COV155

COV155, loading dose of 3 tablets followed by 2 tablets every 12 hours for 48 hours.

Drug: COV155
COV155 tablets
Other Names:
  • MNK155
  • Placebo Comparator: Placebo

    Matching tablet to COV155 without containing active ingredients, loading dose of 3 tablets followed by 2 tablets every 12 hours for 48 hours.

    Drug: placebo

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. SPID48 (Summed pain intensity difference) [48 hours]

      48 hour Summed pain intensity difference

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Safety and tolerability of COV155 [48 hours]

      Safety and tolerability to be evaluated with physical exams, vital signs, pulse oximetry, clinical laboratory tests, electrocardiograms, and adverse events

    2. Onset of analgesia of COV155 versus placebo [48 hours]

      Onset of confirmed perceptible pain relief, time to meaningful pain relief, and time to peak pain intensity difference

    3. Analgesic effects of COV155 versus placebo [48 hours]

      Pain intensity scores, pain intensity differences, and summed pain intensity differences; pain relief scores and total pain relief; percent responders; mean dosing interval; use of rescue medication; global assessment of subject satisfaction with study treatment.
