Trial Outcomes & Findings for HTX-011 for Post-bunionectomy Analgesia (NCT NCT02471898)

NCT ID: NCT02471898

Last Updated: 2026-07-17

Results Overview

Summed Pain Intensity (SPI) Scores over the first 24 hours, which was the sum of the pain intensity scores at the scheduled 1 hour assessment, the assessments scheduled for every 2 hours between Hours 2 and 14, and the assessments scheduled at Hours 18 and 24; with the assessments at Hours 1 and 2 each weighted by 1, the assessments between Hours 4 and 14 each weighted by 2, the assessment at Hour 18 weighted by 4, and the assessment at Hour 24 weighted by 6. Pain was assessed using an 11-point scale, where 0 equaled no pain and 10 equaled the worst pain imaginable. Thus, the minimum and maximum possible SPI0-24 scores were 0 and 240, respectively.
