NCT00707824 ↗ | Epidural Nalbuphine for Postcesarean Epidural Morphine Induced Pruritus | Completed | Mahidol University | Phase 4 | 2000-06-01 | Can epidural nalbuphine reduce incidence or severity of epidural morphine induced pruritus in patient undergoing cesarean section? |
NCT00947284 ↗ | Effect of Nalbuphine and Naloxone on Experimentally Induced Skin Sensitivity | Terminated | University of California, San Francisco | N/A | 2010-01-01 | In previous clinical studies of post-surgical pain the investigators found that nalbuphine (Nubain), a narcotic pain killer, relieves pain more effectively when combined with low-dose naloxone (Narcan), a drug that is used to treat narcotic overdose. This finding was particularly true in men. The purpose of this study is to find out if nalbuphine combined with naloxone is more effective in relieving experimentally produced pain than either drug alone. A second reason for this study is to find out if study medications work more effectively in women or in men. Subjects will come to the University of California at San Francisco (UCSF) Clinical Research Center (CRC) for 4 study visits. The first visit will be a 2-hour screening to assess the subject for study eligibility. During the other three visits, the investigators will use a thermal stimulating device to produce temporary, non-injurious skin sensitivity that subjects will feel as painful. Changes in pain will be measured following the intravenous (i.v.) administration of study drugs. Three drug combinations will be administered, a different one each visit: 1) nalbuphine 5 mg and naloxone 0.4 mg , 2) naloxone 0.4 mg and saline (an inactive solution), nalbuphine 5 mg and saline. These drug combinations will be administered in random order; all subjects will receive all three combinations. |
NCT01380197 ↗ | Choosing Opioid Management for Pain and Analyzing Acute Chest Syndrome (ACS) Rates Equally | Completed | Atlanta Clinical and Translational Science Institute | Phase 3 | 2010-05-26 | The pathophysiology of sickle cell disease (SCD) manifestations, are complex with interactions of intracellular hemoglobin, membrane and endothelial activation but the hallmark remains recurrent and painful vaso-occlusive episodes (VOC). These painful episodes are thought to result from ischemia caused when small blood vessels are occluded by misshapen, inflexible erythrocytes. Painful episodes are the most common cause of hospitalization, morbidity, and impairment for SCD patients. There is no therapy that completely prevents or directly aborts painful events for all patients. Consequently, treatment for acute VOC is primarily supportive using hydration and medicinal pain control. Every pain medication has the potential to relieve pain but is associated with significant limitations and side effects. The primary hypothesis to be tested in this double blind, randomized controlled trial is that Nalbuphine is equivalent to morphine for pain control and patients will suffer fewer episodes of acute chest syndrome. The investigators also expect subjects will report fewer side effects from respiratory depression, abdominal distention from reduced peristalsis, reduced histamine release causing pruritis and still be provided adequate pain control. Further hypotheses to be tested is ability to recruit patient participants while being treated in the Emergency Department and that continuous infusion of Nalbuphine with accompanying patient controlled analgesia (PCA) is safe and effective in controlling pain, requiring less total opiates consumption, while decreasing length of hospitalization. |
