Phase 4, multicenter, open-label, multiple-dose study of the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety of XARTEMIS XR in postsurgical adolescent subjects aged 12 to 17 years with moderate to severe acute pain. The study will assess the safety of administering multiple doses of XARTEMIS XR in this population.

Time to Reach Steady State
The time to reach steady state in participants who received all 5 doses
Time frame: within 60 hours
Area Under the Concentration-time Curve (AUC) From Time Zero (AUC0) to the Time of the Last Quantifiable Plasma Sample (AUClast)
Elimination constant estimates required for the calculation of the planned AUC0-12 hours were not available. AUClast therefore provided the best available measure of exposure, effectively representing AUC0-12 hours for both moieties. While considered the best available measure, it also remains inaccurate because of the extended-release formulation and the lack of data beyond the 12.08-hour time point.
Time frame: within approximately 12 hours (12.08 hours)
Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax)
The highest concentration of study drug within 12 hours.
Time frame: within approximately 12 hours (12.08 hours)
Apparent Plasma Terminal Drug Elimination Half-life (T1/2)
PK parameters are determined after a single administration of study drug on Day 1. Plasma concentrations that are below the level of quantification (BLQ) are set to 0 before Tmax, with the exception that a BLQ value occurring between measurable concentrations is set to missing. BLQ values that occur after Tmax are set to missing.
Time frame: within approximately 12 hours (12.08 hours)
Time of Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Tmax)
The time at which the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) is reached.
Time frame: within approximately 12 hours (12.08 hours)
