Dr. Neil Singla, Chief Executive Officer of Lotus Clinical Research, will discuss ‘Opioid Sparing Outcomes: Practical Perspectives from 20 Years of Acute Pain Clinical Trials’ at the 19th Annual Pain Therapeutics Conference, taking place in London, UK on May 13-14, 2019.
PASADENA, CA January 25, 2019
“There is significant commercial and societal demand for opioid-sparing medications that could provide relief from opioid-related side effects; however, due to a lack of validated measurements and inadequate study powering, drug developers have yet to meet the rigorous evidence standards required to secure a complete opioid-sparing label claim,” said Dr. Neil Singla, Chief Executive Officer of Lotus Clinical Research.
“The global opioids market size was valued at $22.96bn USD in 2016 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of 4.8% between 2018 and 2025. Rising prevalence of diseases that cause chronic pain, such as cancer, lower back pain, postsurgical pain, arthritis, and fibromyalgia, is driving growth.” – SMi Pain Therapeutics
Dr. Singla will discuss an overview of the strengths and weaknesses of current opioid-sparing outcomes, outline clinical trial design concerns in opioid-sparing studies, and discuss the potential utility of a new study endpoint: proportion of opioid-free patients at the 19th Annual Pain Therapeutics Conference, taking place in London, UK on May 13-14, 2019.
