1 A Multi-site, Double-blind, Parallel Arm, Block Randomised, Placebo Controlled, Factorial Phase III Study of Opioids for Chronic Refractory Breathlessness in People With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease.
Breathlessness, the sensation of breathing discomfort, is a major problem in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Breathlessness that persists despite optimal management of the underlying disease(s) is said to be refractory. Preliminary evidence suggests that a small, regular dose of morphine helps to reduce safely the sensation of breathlessness. However, this research on morphine for breathlessness has not defined the best way to adjust the dose of the medication, or refined which people are most likely to have benefit, no response or side effects. This is a randomized, double-blind phase III trial in people with COPD and significant refractory breathlessness, which will explore several important questions: - Are regular, low dose opioids (morphine) at four possible doses over 3 weeks more effective than placebo medication (containing no active ingredient) at improving breathlessness? - Does the medication have any effect on daily activity, breathlessness, and quality of life? - What are the common side effects of this intervention? - Does the benefit from the drug outweigh the side effects it produces? - Are there specific characteristics of people who are more likely to receive benefit from sustained release morphine? Participants will be allocated to receive three weeks of morphine sulfate (and laxative, docusate with senna), or placebo (and placebo laxative). The dose of morphine may be increased each week for weeks two and three. All medicines will appear the same (blinded) and neither the doctor nor the participant will know which medication the participant is receiving. Participants will have a medical interview, physical examination to collect some general health information, and baseline measurements including; daily activity, symptoms, and quality of life. A small amount of blood may be required to check eligibility. Further blood samples may be taken at week 1 and 3 to enable testing on how individuals respond to opioids, further consent will be obtained for these samples. Data on benefits, side effects, and medical care will be collected during comprehensive weekly visits. Participants will also fill out a simple diary twice daily for weeks one to three of the study, and for one day each week during an optional 3 month extension stage. The outcome of this study may enable better management of symptoms and activity in people COPD with medicines that are shown to be effective and safe.

Breathlessness is an overwhelming symptom affecting tens of thousands of Australians every day. For many people, it persists even when all the underlying causes have been optimally managed (chronic breathlessness). In these circumstances, it often occurs at rest or with minimal exertion. Evidence from a number of clinical studies suggests that a small, regular dose of morphine helps to reduce safely the sensation of breathlessness. However, it is not well established which patients derive more benefit and what is the net clinical effect of this treatment (weighing benefits and harms). This is a phase III, multi-site, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and severe chronic breathlessness which will explore several important questions: - Are regular, low doses of morphine at four possible doses over 3 weeks more effective than placebo at improving breathlessness? - Does increasing the dose in people who already are experiencing some benefit provide even greater reduction in worst breathlessness? - Does the medication have any effect on daily activity and quality of life? - What are the common or serious side effects of this intervention? - Does the benefit from the medication outweigh the side effects it produces? - Are there specific characteristics of people who are more likely to receive benefit from extended release morphine? Participants will receive once daily extended release morphine (plus laxative, docusate with senna), or placebo (placebo laxative) in addition to their usual medication for up to 3 weeks at increasing doses. Participants will have a medical interview and physical examination to collect some general health information, and baseline measurements including; daily activity, symptoms, and quality of life. A small amount of blood may be required to check eligibility. Further blood samples may be taken at week 1 and 3 to enable testing on how individuals respond to opioids, further consent will be obtained for these samples. Data on benefits, side effects, and medical care will be collected during comprehensive weekly visits. Participants will also fill out a simple diary twice daily for weeks one to three of the study, and for one day each week during an optional 6 month extension stage. The outcome of this study may enable better management of symptoms and activity in people COPD with medicines that are shown to be effective and safe.
