(morphine sulfate and naltrexone hydrochloride) Extended
Release Capsules for oral use.
ASENT 12th Annual Meeting
#21 Meisner
EMBEDA™
Extended release morphine sulfate with a sequestered core of
naltrexone hydrochloride (antagonist) in a ratio of 25:1
Indicated for moderate to severe pain when a continuous, aroundthe-clock opioid analgesic is needed for an extended period of time
Six dosage strengths (20 mg to 100 mg morphine sulfate
with 0.8 to 4 mg naltrexone hydrochloride)
Sequestered
Naltrexone

EMBEDA™ – Preliminary Efficacy & Safety
(ALO-202)
STUDY DESIGN:
Double-blind, two way crossover of EMBEDA™ and KADIAN® [extended release
morphine sulfate (ERMS)]
ERMS initiated at 20 mg BID and titrated to a maximum of 160 mg BID
113 patients with Chronic Pain Due to Osteoarthritis of the Hip or Knee enrolled into
Period 1, 72 randomized into Period 2 and 69 completed
RESULTS:
Plasma morphine from KADIAN® (ERMS) and EMBEDA™ formulations are
bioequivalent limited to extent of exposure at steady state (AUC0-12h)
The minimal release of naltrexone and its metabolite, 6-β-naltrexol, from EMBEDA™
after chronic dosing did not increase pain scores
EMBEDA™ appears to be safe and effective in treating chronic pain of osteoarthritis
of the knee and hip
Most patients rated both medications as good or excellent (KADIAN® (ERMS),
78.9%; EMBEDA™, 91.5%)
EMBEDA™ – Pivotal Efficacy Study (ALO-301)
STUDY DESIGN:
Patients with Moderate to Severe Chronic Pain Due to Osteoarthritis of the Hip or
Knee
EMBEDA™ initiated at 20mg BID and titrated to maximum of 80mg BID
RESULTS:
Statistically significant improvements in efficacy (primary and secondary) were
seen compared to placebo

EMBEDA™- Phase IV Plans
Clinical Trials
Pediatric studies in ages 2- <12 years and 12-17 years (post-approval
commitment)
Effects of crushed EMBEDA™ in opioid tolerant patients (withdrawal
study)
Abuse potential of EMBEDA™ via intranasal route
Role of EMBEDA™ in the Universal Precautions approach to pain
management
Specific patient populations e.g. fibromyalgia, neuropathic pain
EMBEDA™ Epidemiology Program-To determine if there is a lower rate
of EMBEDA™ abuse compared to other ER opioids, with particular
focus on the method of abuse.
