Rapid onset of pain relief
in 1-3 minutes1*†
Most patients start to feel pain relief in one to three minutes with many of them feeling relief in 5 minutes after getting OLINVYK. OLINVYK's pain relief is better than sugar pill and just as good as morphine. Very few patients stopped the study because they did not feel pain relief.
Superior efficacy vs placebo in hard tissue (P <0.01) and soft tissue (P <0.02) surgical models1,3-5‡§
Non-inferior to 1 mg morphine at 0.35 mg and 0.5 mg demand doses in exploratory analyses5‡§
≤5% of patients in approved dosing regimens discontinued due to lack of efficacy in clinical trials1‡§‖
* Median onset of pain relief 1-3 minutes after initial dose. Perceptible pain relief achieved in majority of patients within 5 minutes.
† Onset of pain relief was evaluated in a phase 2, fixed-dose bunionectomy trial in which 192 patients were treated with OLINVYK IV every 3 hours, placebo IV, or morphine IV every 4 hours. Time to onset of analgesia was determined using the 2-stopwatch method, for which patients were given 2 stopwatches and instructed to stop the first for perceptible improvement in pain and the second for meaningful improvement in pain.6
‡ In a phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo- and morphine-controlled study, patients (placebo [n=79], OLINVYK 0.1 mg [n=76], OLINVYK 0.35 mg [n=79], OLINVYK 0.5 mg [n=79], and morphine [n=76]) with moderate to severe acute pain following bunionectomy were treated for up to 48 hours (N=389). All patients received PCA dosing. Sum of pain intensity difference (SPID-48) was used to measure the analgesic effect for the purpose of approval and a statistically significantly greater analgesic effect was observed in both 0.35 mg and 0.5 mg OLINVYK treatment groups vs placebo.4
§ In a phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo- and morphine-controlled study, patients (placebo [n=81], OLINVYK 0.1 mg [n=77], OLINVYK 0.35 mg [n=80], OLINVYK 0.5 mg [n=80], and morphine [n=83]) with moderate to severe acute pain following abdominoplasty were treated for up to 24 hours (N=401). All patients received PCA dosing. Sum of pain intensity difference (SPID-24) was used to measure the analgesic effect for the purpose of approval and a statistically significantly greater analgesic effect was observed in both 0.35 mg and 0.5 mg OLINVYK treatment groups vs placebo.5
‖ 4% and 5% of patients in the 0.35 mg and 0.5 mg OLINVYK treatment groups, respectively, discontinued study medication due to lack of efficacy (vs 34% of patients treated with placebo) following a bunionectomy. 3% and 5% of patients in the 0.35 mg and 0.5 mg OLINVYK treatment groups, respectively, discontinued study medication due to lack of efficacy (vs 22% of patients treated with placebo) following an abdominoplasty.
