Brief summary

This study will be conducted to evaluate the abuse potential of single doses of cebranopadol as compared with oxycodone, tramadol and matching placebo in recreational drug users.

Detailed description

Interventions

DRUGOxycodone 40 mg

Participants will be administered a single dose of 6 capsules containing oxycodone and placebo in a randomized crossover manner

DRUGTramadol 600 mg

Participants will be administered a single dose of 6 capsules containing tramadol in a randomized crossover manner

DRUGPlacebo

Participants will be administered a single dose of 6 capsules containing placebo in a randomized crossover manner

Participants will be administered a single dose of 6 capsules containing cebranopadol and placebo in a randomized crossover manner

Participants will be administered a single dose of 6 capsules containing cebranopadol and placebo in a randomized crossover manner

Masking description

To ensure blinding to the treatment, subjects will receive 6 identically looking capsules that will contain one of the 5 assigned treatments. Subjects will be randomized 1:1:1:1:1 and will receive one of 2 cebranopadol doses: oxycodone IR: tramadol IR: placebo in each of the 5 treatment periods.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Drug Liking Visual analog scale (VAS) EmaxTreatment Phase: Intervals from predose to 48 hours post-doseThe scale is a 0-100-point scale: 0 = Strong disliking; 50 = Neither like nor dislike; 100 = Strong liking

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
VAS rating for Overall LikingTreatment Phase: Intervals from predose to 48 hours post-doseThe scale is a 0-100-point scale: 0 = Strong Disliking, 50 = Neither Like nor Dislike, 100 = Strong Liking
VAS rating for Take Drug AgainTreatment Phase: Intervals from predose to 48 hours post-doseThe scale is a 0-100-point scale: 0 = Definitely would not; 50 = Do not care; 100 = Definitely would
PupillometryTreatment Phase: Intervals from predose to 48 hours post-doseData from a series of frames will be used in the calculation, and the final display will show the weighted average and standard deviation of the pupil size. Measurements will be collected under mesopic lighting conditions
Multi-Tasking TestTreatment Phase: Intervals from predose to 48 hours post-doseFormerly known as the Attention Switching Task (AST), is a test of executive function which provides a measure of the ability to use multiple sources of potentially conflicting information to guide behavior.
