Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The study aims to determine the tolerability of repeated doses of Maxigesic® IV over an extended period of exposure.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Maxigesic® IV
Phase 3

Detailed Description

Combined administration of acetaminophen and ibuprofen has been shown to provide superior analgesia over administration of comparable doses of either component alone or placebo, when given as an intravenous formulation or as a solid oral tablet in the postoperative setting.

The superior efficacy of the combination does not appear to come at the expense of tolerability. A previous study of Maxigesic® IV in bunionectomy patients found that there were no differences between patients treated with repeated doses of Maxigesic® IV and those treated with intravenous acetaminophen, ibuprofen or placebo in the rate of discontinuations due to adverse events (AEs), the overall incidence of treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs) or the severity of TEAEs. The incidence of common TEAEs (affecting ≥ 10% of the study population), including gastrointestinal disorders, nervous system disorders, general disorders and administration site conditions, and skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders, was not changed due to combined administration of acetaminophen and ibuprofen in Maxigesic® IV.

This study aims to determine the tolerability of repeated doses of Maxigesic® IV over an extended period of exposure (≥ 48 hours).

Study Results

Participant Flow

Recruitment Details 323 subjects were screened, of whom 90 subjects were screening failures, and a total of 233 subjects were enrolled. 1 subject was enrolled but not dosed due to receiving prohibited concomitant medications during surgery, therefore a total of 232 subjects were administered at least one dose of the study drug. 17 subjects discontinued from the study, including 14 discontinuations during the treatment period, and 3 discontinuations during the follow-up period. 215 subjects completed the full study
