Purpose
This non-interventional, observational study is set up on request of the Belgian reimbursement authorities and evaluates the efficacy of Targinact with regard to pain relief and constipation in daily clinical practice in Belgium compared to the previous analgesic treatment with prolonged release oxycodone. Only patients eligible for Targinact® reimbursement in Belgium are included.

- Percentage of responders after Targinact treatment compared to the previous treatment with prolonged release oxycodone. [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]A responder is defined as a patient who shows no worsening of pain (pain score has increased ≤ 1 unit on a 11-points pain NRS) at V3/the last visit compared to V1 or has a NRS ≤4 on a 11-points pain NRS at V3/the last visit AND has a reduction in BFI ≥ 12 units at V3/the last visit compared to V1 or has a BFI ≤30 at V3/ the last visit.
- To assess laxative use during Targinact® treatment compared to previous PR oxycodone treatment (by physician) [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]To assess laxative use during Targinact® treatment compared to previous PR oxycodone treatment (by physician)
- To assess the use of analgesic rescue medication during Targinact® treatment compared to previous PR oxycodone treatment (by physician) [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]To assess the use of analgesic rescue medication during Targinact® treatment compared to previous PR oxycodone treatment (by physician)
- To evaluate the quality of life (EQ-5D questionnaire) during Targinact® treatment compared to previous PR oxycodone treatment (by patient) [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]To evaluate the quality of life (EQ-5D questionnaire) during Targinact® treatment compared to previous PR oxycodone treatment (by patient)
- To assess safety of Targinact® treatment (by physician) [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Safety will be assessed by documentation of adverse events, collected via spontaneous reports and patient documentation.

Patients are treated with Targinact® according to daily clinical practice during at least 12 weeks and are monitored during study 3 visits. Parameters assessed are pain relief, constipation, use of laxatives, use of analgesic rescue medication, use of concomitant medication, quality of life and safety of Targinact® treatment. These parameters, except for safety assessment, are compared between Targinact® treatment and previous analgesic treatment with prolonged release oxycodone.
