A Multicenter, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Clinical Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of ARX-F01 Sublingual Sufentanil in Patients Undergoing Elective Unilateral Total Knee Replacement

Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate three different dosage strengths of sublingual ARX-F01 (Sufentanil NanoTab) versus a sublingual Placebo NanoTab for the treatment of post-operative pain in subjects following total knee replacement surgery. We hypothesize that subjects receiving placebo will have poor pain relief and will drop out of the study sooner and more often than the ARX-F01-treated subjects.
