The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CB-5945 for the treatment of opioid-induced constipation (OIC) in adults taking opioid therapy for chronic non-cancer pain.
This is a multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study in participants with OIC taking opioid therapy for chronic non-cancer pain. Approximately 600 participants (300 participants per treatment group) with OIC will be randomized at approximately 75 study centers to receive either oral 0.25 mg CB-5945 BID or oral matching placebo BID for the 12-week double-blind treatment period, followed by a 4-week follow-up period. All randomized participants will be evaluated for clinical response for duration of their study participation. All participants will be followed for safety for 4 weeks after last dose of the study medication, regardless of when they discontinue study medication. The clinical study report for this study includes pooled results for studies 5945-OIC-12-02 (NCT01901302) 5945-OIC-12-03 (NCT01901328), and 5945-OIC-12-04 (NCT01901341).

Overall Spontaneous Bowel Movement (SBM) Responder Rates at the 12-weeks
A Spontaneous Bowel Movement (SBM) Weekly Responder (calculated for each week of the 12-week double-blind treatment period) is a participant who has ≥ 3 SBMs for the week and an increase from baseline of ≥1 SBM for the specified week, based on at least 4 Available Data Days (ADDs) during the week. For the definition of the primary efficacy endpoint, Overall SBM Responder is a participant who is a Weekly SBM Responder for 9 of the 12 weeks of the double-blind treatment period, including 3 of the last 4 weeks (Weeks 9, 10, 11 and 12).
Time frame: 12 weeks
Change From Baseline of Chronic Opioid-Related Gastrointestinal Symptom Scale (CORGISS) Scores at 12 Weeks
The CORGISS is designed to assess GI symptoms related to opioid use in patients with chronic non-cancer pain. The CORGISS asks participants to rate the severity of GI symptoms over the previous 24 hours, with answers ranging from 0 ("did not experience") to 4 ("very severe").
Time frame: Baseline, 12 weeks
Overall Complete Spontaneous Bowel Movement (CSBM) Responder Rates at 12 Weeks
A CSBM Weekly Responder is a subject who has ≥ 3 CSBMs for the specified week and an increase from baseline of ≥1 CSBM for the week. An Overall CSBM Responder is a subject who is a Weekly CSBM Responder for 9 of the 12 weeks of the double-blind treatment period, including 3 of the last 4 weeks (Weeks 9, 10, 11 and 12).
Time frame: 12 weeks
