Brief summary
The purpose of this is study to evaluate improvement of sleep disorder caused by cancer pain after the administration of Hydromorphone Oral Osmotic System (OROS) in Korean participants with cancer.
Detailed description
This is an open-label (all people know the identity of the intervention), multi-center (conducted in more than 1 center), prospective (study following participants forward in time) dose-ascending study to evaluate the clinical usefulness of hydromorphone OROS in improvement of sleep disturbance caused by cancer pain.Total duration of study will be 3 weeks. The study consists of 3 phases: Screening phase (up to 1 week), Treatment phase (2 weeks), and Extension phase (12 weeks). The study will include 6 visits: Day -7, Day 1, Day 15, Day 43, Day 71, and Day 99. During screening phase, potential participants will receive strong oral (long acting) opioid analgesic (for 7 days) until Day 1 and the participants will be evaluated for participation in clinical study on Day 1. During treatment phase, participants will receive hydromorphone OROS (8 milligram \[mg\] to greater than or equal to 32 mg), once daily for 2 weeks, and the dose will be adjusted every 2 days from Day 3 at the Investigator's discretion and according to the strong oral (long acting) opioid analgesic administered from screening phase to Day 1 (the initial dose of the study drug will be determined by converting the dose of the previously administered analgesic to that of the daily dose of oral morphine with the equivalent analgesic effect to the study drug \[dose with equivalent analgesic effect; Hydromorphone OROS dose: oral morphine dose =1:5\]). Participants who completed treatment phase and suffer from continuing cancer pain will be enrolled to extension phase and study drug will be administered as per Investigator discretion for 99 days. Participants primarily will be evaluated for improvement in sleep disturbance measured by Korean Brief Pain Inventory (KBPI). Participants' safety will be monitored throughout the study.
Interventions
Participants will receive hydromorphone OROS (8 milligram \[mg\] to greater than or equal to 32 mg) once daily for 2 weeks, in a dose adjusted according to previously administered strong oral opioid analgesic (dose with equivalent analgesic effect; hydromorphone OROS dose: oral morphine dose=1:5) hydromorphone OROS will be continued as per Investigator's discretion for additional 84 days of extension phase.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria
* Participants with pain who are not likely to response to opioid analgesics * Participants who are intolerant or hypersensitive to hydromorphone * Participants with the following digestive tract diseases which is serious enough to interfere action of an oral analgesic; diseases which can affect absorption and transit of oral drugs such as dysphagia (trouble swallowing), vomiting, no bowel movement, intestinal obstruction, serious intestinal stenosis (narrowing of a duct, tube, or 1 of the valves in the heart), etc * Female participants of childbearing potential who are pregnant or lactating, seeking pregnancy, or failing to take adequate contraceptive precautions * Participants in whom the risks of treatment with morphine/hydromorphone outweigh the potential benefits, including such risk categories as raised intracranial pressure, hypotension, hypothyroidism, asthma, compromised respiratory function compromised liver function, convulsive (an involuntary contraction or series of contractions of the voluntary muscles) disorder and Addison disease (disorder that occurs when the adrenal glands do not produce enough of their hormones)

Treatment response in sleep disturbance was measured by Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) ranging from 0=no disturbance to 10=extreme disturbance. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |

| Sleep Disturbance Questionnaire: Frequency of Waking Up | Baseline and Day 15 | The Investigator evaluated sleep disturbance through the participant's answers to below question: How many times did you wake up while sleeping late night (frequency \[once, 2 times, 3 times, 4 times, 5 times, couldn't fall asleep at all\] of waking up due to pain last night). |
| Sleep Disturbance Questionnaire: Wake up Due to Unbearable Pain | Baseline and Day 15 | The Investigator evaluated sleep disturbance through the participant's answers to below question in yes or no response: 'Did you wake up because of unbearable pain this morning?' |
| Korean Brief Pain Inventory (K-BPI) Questionnaire Score | Baseline and Day 15 | K-BPI is a questionnaire designed to measure the degree of pain severity and the impact of pain in performing daily routines. K-BPI comprises of 9 items out of which 6 items were assessed. Score of each item ranges from 0 to 10, where 0=no pain/impact and 10=severe pain/impact. The 6 items that were assessed are: a) level of pain worst in last 24 hours; b) level of pain weakest in last 24 hours; c) level of pain average in last 24 hours; d) level of pain right now; e) how much pain reduced with the therapy taken; sixth item was further classified into 7 categories: i) general activities ii) mood iii) ambulatory ability iv) routine works v) interpersonal relation vi) sleep vii) life enjoyment. |
| Participant's Pain Intensity | Baseline and Day 15 | Participant's pain intensity was measured using NRS ranging from 0=no pain to 10=unimaginable extreme pain. Participants maintained pain diary for 3 days before Baseline until Day 15 and pain intensity was measured twice daily (morning and afternoon). Here average pain intensity is reported. Average pain intensity was calculated as mean of morning pain intensity and evening pain intensity for each baseline and Day 15. |
| Number of Times the Short-Acting Opioid Analgesic Administered for Breakthrough Pain | Baseline and Day 15 | The participants recorded the frequency of short acting opioid analgesic taken for treating breakthrough pain among the pains suffered by the participants. Here frequency means number of times the short-acting opioid analgesic administered for breakthrough pain from baseline to Day 15 |
| Sleep Disturbance Questionnaire: Analgesic Administration | Baseline and Day 15 | The Investigator evaluated sleep disturbance through the participant's answers to below question in yes or no response: 'Did you need to take an analgesic for pain relief in order to go to sleep last night?' |

The score ranges from 1 to 7, where 1=improved very much, 2=Improved much, 3=Improved a little, 4=No change, 5=Aggravated a little,6=Aggravated much and 7=aggravated very much. |
| Number of Participants in Each Category of Global Assessment of Overall Efficacy of Study Drug Assessed by Participants | Day 15 | Participants evaluated overall efficacy of study drug according to the rating of 1=not effective, 2=average, 3=effective, 4=very effective and 5=extremely effective. |
