Summary

This study tests a new drug called PF614, a modified form of oxycodone, for people with moderate to severe pain after tummy tuck surgery. About 320 adults will take either the drug or a placebo every 12 hours for up to 4 days. Researchers will measure pain relief and watch for side effects.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
PF614 (an oxycodone prodrug extended-release capsule)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a new option for managing pain after surgery with potentially less risk of misuse.
What could go wrong
This is a Phase 3 trial, but it's still testing against placebo, and results may not apply to other types of pain. As an opioid, PF614 carries risks of side effects and dependence.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Participant must provide written informed consent prior to the initiation of any protocol specific procedures. 2. Male or female participant, between 18 and 75 years of age, inclusive, at the time of Screening. 3. Participant must be scheduled to undergo a full abdominoplasty procedure without liposuction with no collateral procedures. 4. Participant must have physical status rated as I-II on the American Society of Anesthesiologists rating scale. 5. Participant must have a body mass index (BMI) within 18.0 to 32.0 kg/m2, inclusive (minimum weight of at least 50.0 kg). 6. If female, participant must be either not of childbearing potential (defined as postmenopausal for at least 1 year and confirmed with follicle stimulating hormone \[FSH\] \>40 mIU/mL as deemed necessary by the investigator, or surgically sterile \[bilateral tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy, or hysterectomy\]) or participant must use a medically acceptable method of birth control (oral or transdermal hormonal contraceptives; vaginal ring; contraceptive implant or injection; intrauterine contraceptive system \[with or without hormone\]; condom and spermicidal foam; heterosexual abstinence; or sterilization of partner) from 30 days prior to Screening through 90 days after the last study drug administration. Heterosexual abstinence is considered to be a highly effective method only if the participant agrees to refrain from heterosexual intercourse during the entire period from 30 days prior to Screening to 90 days after the last study drug administration. 7. If male, participant must agree to use medically acceptable methods of contraception (diaphragm/sponge/condom with spermicide, vasectomy); female sexual partners of childbearing potential must be using and willing to continue using medically acceptable contraception (i.e., oral or transdermal hormonal contraceptives, vaginal ring, contraceptive implant or injection intrauterine contraceptive system \[with or without hormone\]) from Screening and for at least 90 days after the last study drug administration. 8. Must be able to speak, read, and understand English or Spanish sufficiently to allow completion of all study assessments. 9. Participant must be willing and able to follow study instructions and be likely to complete all study requirements. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Participant has a history or presence of a clinically significant abnormality, as assessed by physical examination, medical history, electrocardiograms (ECGs; including a median QT interval corrected for heart rate \[Fridericia; QTcF interval\] of \>450 milliseconds if male or \>470 milliseconds if female at Screening and pre-operatively based on triplicate ECG; a repeat triplicate test is permitted and the median QTcF value will be used to determine eligibility), vital signs, or laboratory values, which, in the opinion of the investigator, would jeopardize the safety of the participant or the validity of the study results. Laboratory tests may be repeated once (one time) at Screening only, after approval by the medical monitor, if the investigator determines that the abnormal laboratory finding(s) was erroneous or caused by a temporary medical condition, for example, an acute infection, or by the temporary use of a prior medication. 2. Participant has a significant cardiac (e.g., ischemia or infarct, complete bundle branch blocks, symptomatic arrhythmias or predominantly non-sinus-conducted rhythm), pulmonary, gastrointestinal, endocrine, metabolic (except diabetes mellitus \[A1c ≤7.0\]), neurological, or psychiatric disorder (resulting in disorientation, memory impairment or inability to report accurately; for instance, schizophrenia, Alzheimer's disease), or any other clinically significant disease that, in the investigator's opinion, may affect efficacy or safety assessments, or that may compromise participant safety during trial participation. 3. Participant has a history of malignancy within the past 2 years, with the exception of basal cell carcinoma that has been treated and is no longer present. 4. Participant has a history or presence of acute respiratory depression, moderate or severe chronic pulmonary disease, cor pulmonale, delirium tremens, central nervous system (CNS) depression, or increased cerebrospinal or intracranial pressure. 5. Participant has a documented history of, or currently active, seizure disorder (excluding febrile seizures in childhood), or history of clinically significant head injury or syncope of unknown origin. 6. Participant has a current painful condition that could confound the interpretation of efficacy, safety, or tolerability data in the study, in the opinion of the investigator. 7. Participant has a history or presence of obstructive sleep apnea. 8. Participant has a known history of or presence of trypsin deficiency. 9. Participant has a history of acute or severe bronchial asthma, hypercarbia, or hypoxia. 10. Participant has any chronic gastrointestinal disease or major previous abdominal surgery (e.g., previous abdominoplasty surgery, Billroth procedure, enteroanastomosis, or bariatric surgery, including gastric bands and gastric sleeves, gastric bypass) that might affect the absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion of PF614. Prior cholecystectomy is allowed if the procedure was \>1 year prior to Screening. Prior Caesarean section is allowed if the participant does not have altered sensation to the scar area. 11. Participant has a history of pancreatitis, pancreatic insufficiency, gastric ulcers, or gastrointestinal bleeding. 12. Participant has evidence of clinically significant hepatic or renal impairment, including alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) \>3× the upper limit of normal (ULN), bilirubin \>2× ULN, estimated creatinine clearance \<60 mL/min (estimated by the 2021 Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration \[CKD-EPI\] creatinine equation). 13. Participant has used chronic opioid therapy, defined as \>15 mg oral morphine equivalent units per day, for \>3 out of 7 days per week, for \>1 month, within 12 months prior to first study drug administration. 14. Participant has used any analgesic medication within 5 half-lives (or, if half-life is unknown, within 48 hours) before the abdominoplasty procedure, or has used chronic non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) therapy, defined as daily use for \>2 weeks within 2 months prior to first study drug administration (aspirin ≤325 mg daily is permitted for cardiovascular prophylaxis if the participant has been on a stable regimen for ≥30 days before the abdominoplasty procedure). 15. Participant has used systemic steroid therapy within 3 months prior to first study drug administration, excluding over-the-counter (OTC) corticosteroid nasal spray products. 16. Participant has used any enzyme-modifying drugs or products, including strong inhibitors of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 and 2D6 enzymes (e.g., clarithromycin, itraconazole, ketoconazole, nefazodone, posaconazole, telithromycin, voriconazole, cimetidine, fluoxetine, quinidine, erythromycin, ciprofloxacin, fluconazole, diltiazem, and human immunodeficiency virus \[HIV\] antivirals) or strong inducers of CYP enzymes (e.g., rifampin, phenytoin, carbamazepine, phenobarbital, and St. John's Wort) within 30 days of first study drug administration. 17. Participant has used medications that, in the opinion of the investigator, could affect the analgesic response (such as central alpha-adrenergic agents \[clonidine and tizanidine\], antiepileptic drugs, gabapentinoids, benzodiazepines, antidepressants, neuroleptic agents or other antipsychotic agents) that are not stably dosed within at least 30 days prior to first study drug administration. Antidepressants are permitted if prescribed for anxiety or depression and doses have been stable for at least 30 days. 18. Participant has used a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, such as semaglutide, within 30 days prior to first study drug administration. 19. Participant is unable to discontinue any of the prohibited medications (Section 9.7.1). 20. Participant has a history or presence of any substance or alcohol use disorder, as defined by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders - 5th Edition, Text Revision (DSM V TR). 21. Participant has a positive urine drug screen (UDS) or alcohol breathalyzer test at Screening (other than THC) or on the day of the abdominoplasty procedure. A positive UDS resulting from use of a prescribed medication not prohibited by the protocol may be allowed if, in the opinion of the investigator, the medication will not interfere with the study. 22. Participant has a history of suicidal ideation or suicidal behavior in the past 12 months, as assessed by the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS; baseline version). 23. Participant has a history of allergy or hypersensitivity to any opioid analgesics, anesthetics, ondansetron, acetaminophen, or NSAIDs. 24. Female participant is currently pregnant (positive pregnancy test) or lactating, or is planning to become pregnant within 30 days of last study drug administration. 25. Participant is positive for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis C, or HIV. 26. Participant has previously participated in a clinical trial using PF614. 27. Participant has received any investigational drugs or devices within 4 weeks (or 5 times the half-life of the drug, if known) prior to first study drug administration. 28. Participant has any medical condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, might interfere with the study procedures or data integrity or compromise the safety of the participant. Medical records may be requested at the opinion of the Investigator. 29. Participant is an employee of the sponsor or research site personnel directly affiliated with this study, or is their immediate family member, defined as a spouse, parent, child or sibling, whether biological or legally adopted. 30.
