Collegium to Present Xtampza ER(TM) Oral Human Abuse Potential Data at the College on Problems of Drug Dependence 77th Annual Meeting
The poster, titled "Oral Human Abuse Potential of Oxycodone DETERx®: An Abuse-deterrent, Extended-release Formulation in Recreational Opioid Users", summarizes data from a human abuse potential (HAP) study designed to evaluate the abuse potential and pharmacokinetics of oral administration of intact Xtampza ER™ (oxycodone extended-release), oral administration of chewed Xtampza ER, and oral administration of crushed immediate-release (IR) oxycodone in non-dependent, recreational drug abusers.
The oral HAP study demonstrated that chewed Xtampza ER had significantly lower peak "Drug Liking" (Emax) when compared with crushed IR oxycodone (p < 0.0001). Furthermore, there was no difference in the pharmacokinetics when Xtampza ER was chewed or taken intact as determined by bioequivalence measures (Cmax and AUC).
