Study Details

This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, dose-escalation study evaluating the safety, pharmacokinetics, efficacy, and pharmacodynamics of ALX006, an extended-release bupivacaine formulation, administered as a single-dose sciatic nerve block in the popliteal fossa in adult subjects undergoing primary unilateral bunionectomy. Approximately 60 subjects will be enrolled across 3 sequential dose cohorts (100 mg, 150 mg, 200 mg ALX006), with each cohort comparing ALX006 against MARCAINE 0.25% (bupivacaine HCl 50 mg) as the active comparator at a 3:1 randomization ratio. Dose escalation between cohorts is governed by an Independent Data Monitoring Committee.

Arms

  • Experimental: ALX006 100 mg
    Single-dose ALX006 100 mg (50 mg/mL bupivacaine free base) administered as ultrasound-guided sciatic nerve block in the popliteal fossa, 60 min (±15 min) prior to bunionectomy.
  • Experimental: ALX006 150 mg
    Single-dose ALX006 150 mg (50 mg/mL bupivacaine free base) administered as ultrasound-guided sciatic nerve block in the popliteal fossa, 60 min (±15 min) prior to bunionectomy.
  • Experimental: ALX006 200 mg
    Single-dose ALX006 200 mg (50 mg/mL; bupivacaine free base) administered as ultrasound-guided sciatic nerve block in the popliteal fossa, 60 min (±15 min) prior to bunionectomy.
  • Active Comparator: MARCAINE 0.25%
    Single-dose MARCAINE 0.25% (bupivacaine HCl 50 mg; 20 mL), administered as ultrasound-guided sciatic nerve block in the popliteal fossa, 60 min (±15 min) prior to bunionectomy.
