Summary

This is a national, single-center, single-arm, open-label Phase II clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Ropiclobet, a fixed-dose injectable solution containing Ropivacaine HCl, Betamethasone Sodium Phosphate, and Clonidine HCl.

The study includes three non-randomized dose groups and will enroll a total of 60 adult volunteers undergoing upper extremity surgery (arm, elbow, forearm, or hand). All participants will receive a single administration of Ropiclobet via supraclavicular brachial plexus block (SCB) under ultrasound guidance. Sedation may be provided if necessary; however, participants requiring general anesthesia will be excluded from the study.

Postoperatively, volunteers will be monitored in the PACU for 2 hours, followed by transfer to a regular hospital ward under anesthesiology supervision. All participants will remain under clinical observation for 48 hours following the procedure. If the sensory or motor block persists beyond this period, monitoring will continue until full resolution and an additional 6 hours of observation will be provided. Follow-up visits are scheduled for Day 15 and Day 30 post-procedure.

The primary efficacy endpoint is the duration of analgesia and the primary safety endpoint is the incidence and characterization of all adverse events occurring during the procedure and within 30 days postoperatively.
