Effect of Extended-release Oxymorphone Hydrochloride (Opana® ER), Taken Fasting Versus With Food, on Cognitive Functioning in Opioid-tolerant Subjects: a Randomized, Single-blinded, Cross-over Study

The purpose of the study is to determine whether extended-release oxymorphone hydrochloride
taken orally with a high-fat meal, generating an approximately 50% higher Cmax, impacts
cognitive functioning, using Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery (CANTAB)
tests, to a greater extent than when taking under conditions of fasting.
