143This study is designed to determine if opioid dependent subjects who are already receiving Subutex and/or Suboxone can transfer to RBP-6300. Upon completing the study, subjects will continue their pre-study prescribed dosage of Subutex and/or Suboxone
During the open-label Run-In Period (study days -7 to -1), participants receive Subutex®/Suboxone® at one of three dose levels, depending on the dose level for that subject on entry to the study: 8 mg/day, 16 mg/day, or 24 mg/day.
During the 7-day, active drug-controlled, double-blind Transfer Period (study days 1-7), participants are randomized to either Subutex®/Suboxone® or RBP-6300 active drug at dosing levels equivalent to the level during the Run-In Period plus placebo matching the other drug.
This is followed by a 3-day single-blind Subutex®/Suboxone® Transition Period in which participants receive the same dose given during the Run-In Period.
Participants randomized to the RBP-6300 treatment arm take either 10, 20 or 30 mg/day RBP-6300 tablets during the Transfer Period (study days 1-7). Oral RBP-6300 tablets containing 10 mg buprenorphine hemiadipate HCl and 10 mg naloxone HCl dehydrate.
Participants randomized to the Subutex®/Suboxone® treatment arm take the dosage of either drug on which they were previously stabilised during the Run-In, Transfer, and Transition Periods. Participants randomized to the RBP-6300 treatment arm take the dosage of either drug on which they were previously stabilised during the Run-In and Transition Periods. Sublingual Subutex® tablets containing 8 mg buprenorphine and and sublingual Suboxone® tablets containing 8 mg buprenorphine and 2 mg naloxone.
Participants randomized to the Subutex®/Suboxone® treatment arm take Placebo for RBP-6300 during the Transfer and Transition Periods. Participants randomized to the RBP-6300 treatment arm take Placebo for RBP-6300 during the Transition Period.
Participants randomized to the RBP-6300 treatment arm take Placebo for Subutex®/Suboxone® during the Transfer Period.
During the Double-Blind Transfer Period (Days 1-7), participants take RBP-6300 at a level (either 10, 20 or 30 mg/day) equivalent to dosing during the Run-In Period, plus Placebo for Subutex®/Suboxone®. This is followed by a 3-day Transition Period (Days 8-10) in which participants take active Subutex®/Suboxone® equal to the dose taken during the Run-In Period plus placebo matching RBP-6000.
During the Double-Blind Transfer Period (Days 1-7), participants take Subutex®/Suboxone® at a level (either 8, 16 or 240 mg/day) equivalent to dosing during the Run-In Period, plus Placebo for RBP-6000. This is followed by a 3-day Transition Period (Days 8-10) in which participants take active Subutex®/Suboxone® equal to the dose taken during the Run-In Period plus placebo matching RBP-6000.
