NCT ID NCT05142267

Summary

This study aims to understand how stress affects a person's response to opioid pain medication and their risk of misusing it. Researchers will enroll 120 adults with chronic back pain to measure their stress levels and then test their pain relief and feelings about the drug oxycodone in a controlled lab setting. The goal is to gather knowledge that could one day help doctors personalize pain treatment to reduce addiction risk.
