Inclusion criteria

Key Inclusion Criteria: * Before Surgery: * Participant scheduled to undergo a primary unilateral bunionectomy with distal first metatarsal osteotomy (i.e., Austin procedure) and internal fixation under regional anesthesia (Mayo and popliteal sciatic block) * After Surgery: * Participant is lucid and able to follow commands * All analgesic guidelines were followed during and after the bunionectomy Key

Exclusion criteria

* Before Surgery: * Prior history of bunionectomy or other foot surgery on the index foot * History of cardiac dysrhythmias requiring anti-arrhythmia treatment(s) * Any prior surgery within 1 month before the first study drug * After Surgery: * Participant had a Type 3 deformity requiring a base wedge osteotomy or concomitant surgery such as hammertoe repair, or had medical complications during the bunionectomy that, in the opinion of the investigator, should preclude randomization Other protocol defined Inclusion/

MeasureTime frameDescription
Time-Weighted Sum of Pain Intensity Difference (SPID) as Recorded on a Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) 0 to 48 Hours (SPID48) After the First Dose of Study Drug0 to 48 hours After First Dose of Study DrugSPID was calculated as the sum of the product of time (in hours) elapsed since previous measurements and pain intensity difference. Pain intensity difference was calculated by subtracting the pain intensity score at given post-dose time points from the baseline pain intensity scores (using pain rating score range: 0= no pain to 10= worst possible pain). SPID48 was calculated from 0 to 48 hours and the score range was -480 (worst score) to 480 (best score).

Time-Weighted SPID as Recorded on a NPRS 0 to 24 Hours (SPID24) After the First Dose of Study Drug

SPID was calculated as the sum of the product of time (in hours) elapsed since previous measurements and pain intensity difference. Pain intensity difference was calculated by subtracting the pain intensity score at given post-dose time points from the baseline pain intensity scores (using pain rating score range: 0= no pain to 10= worst possible pain). SPID24 was calculated from 0 to 24 hours and the score range was -240 (worst score) to 240 (best score).
