New drug aims to cut opioid use after joint replacement surgery

NCT ID NCT07687966

First seen Jul 07, 2026 · Last updated Jul 08, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether a new drug called CBP-0276 can help people who have had hip or knee replacement surgery use fewer opioid painkillers. Participants take either CBP-0276 or a placebo alongside standard oxycodone for 28 days after surgery. The goal is to see if CBP-0276 reduces the number of oxycodone tablets needed to control pain, potentially lowering the risk of opioid dependence.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
CBP-0276
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a way to manage post-surgery pain with fewer opioids, reducing the risk of addiction and side effects.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage (Phase 2) proof-of-concept study with only 80 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The drug may not reduce opioid use more than placebo.
