Breakthrough cancer pain (BTcP) is a rapid onset, high intensity and short duration pain episode, which takes place within stable background pain control. It significantly affects the quality of life of patients with cancer and their ability to function normally. Rapid onset opioids and immediate-release oral opioids (e.g. morphine sulfate, hydromorphone, and oxycodone) are the standard treatment for BTcP. Because of the limited availability, high cost, complicated titration and the high risks of overdosing with rapid-onset opioids, most often the preferred choice of treatment is immediate-release oral opioids. However, this approach might not always offer optimal speed for onset of action and duration to match the rapid nature of an episode of BTcP. In order to seek a potential alternative to immediate-release oral opioids, we are proposing to test the onset of action of PPP001 to rapidly alleviate breakthrough pain in patients with cancer. We will also examine the safety and the efficacy on pain intensity of PPP001 within this population.

What this record can show
This locally preserved record separates the registered protocol from source-reported registry results. Neither is a treatment recommendation.
Registry facts
The study is a randomized, open-label crossover comparison study: This will be a 10-week open-label randomized study to evaluate the effect of inhaled PPP001 as compared to morphine sulfate or hydromorphone or oxycodone to improve for the treatment of BTcP. After proper screening and verified inclusion/exclusion criteria, 20 consecutive subjects will be recruited.

Interventions
Group assigned to PPP001
Group assigned to morphine sulfate or hydromorphone or oxycodone
Eligibility
primary outcomes
Time frame: change between 0 min (before starting treatment) and 30 minutes after dosing
SPID30 score after PPP001 administration or immediate-release oral opioids (morphine sulfate or hydromorphone or oxycodone) administration. The SPID30 calculation is based on a 100 mm pain intensity VAS were 0 mm is the minimum and 100 mm the maximum with higher score representing a worse outcome.
secondary outcomes
Time frame: 10, 15, and 60 minutes after dosing
SPID score after PPP001 administration or immediate-release oral opioids (morphine sulfate or hydromorphone or oxycodone) administration. The SPID calculation is based on a 100 mm pain intensity VAS were 0 mm is the minimum and 100 mm the maximum with higher score representing a worse outcome.
Time frame: 5, 10, 15, 30 and 60 minutes after dosing
PID score after PPP001 administration or immediate-release oral opioids (morphine sulfate or hydromorphone or oxycodone) administration. The PID calculation is based on a 100 mm pain intensity VAS were 0 mm is the minimum and 100 mm the maximum with higher score representing a worse outcome.
Time frame: 5, 10, 15, 30 and 60 minutes after dosing
Subjective pain relief evaluated with a self-administered scale. The pain relief is measured with a five-point scale (0 = none to 4 = complete relief) with a higher score representing a better outcome.
