| Official Title: | A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo- & Positive-Controlled, Parallel Group, Dose Escalating Study to Evaluate the Effect of Buprenorphine Delivered by Buprenorphine Transdermal System at 10- and 40-mg Dose Levels on QT Intervals in Healthy Adult Volunteers |
- The Comparison of BTDS to Placebo Transdermal System (TDS): the Average Difference From Baseline Using QT Corrected From Within-subject Data (QTci) on Day 13 [ Time Frame: Baseline to Day 13 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
Observed time from start of the QRS complex to end of the T wave (QT), and the time between the 2 R waves (RR) data for each of 4 electrocardiographs (ECGs) over an approximate 10-minute interval at each nominal time point. The average QT and QTc data over the 2 pretreatment days were used as the baseline.
Observed time from start of the QRS complex to end of the T wave (QT); interval corrected for heart rate (QTc) msec; interval corrected from within-subject data (QTci) msec.
