A Multi-center, Randomized, Multiple-dose, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Parallel Group, Phase 3 Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Abuse-deterrent Capsules Oxycodone Hydrochloride Plus Naltrexone Hydrochloride (a) or Oxycodone Hydrochloride Plus Naltrexone Hydrochloride (b) for the Treatment of Adults With Moderate to Severe Pain Following Bunionectomy Surgery

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, Phase 3
study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the administration of multiple doses of
Oxycodone Hydrochloride plus Naltrexone Hydrochloride (a) or Oxycodone Hydrochloride plus
Naltrexone Hydrochloride (b) in patients who have undergone primary, unilateral, distal
first metatarsal bunionectomy with osteotomy and internal fixation.

The study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of oxycodone/naltrexone (a) and
oxycodone/naltrexone (b) versus placebo. During the blinded phase of the study (inpatient
portion) the dosing regimen is 1 capsule containing Oxycodone Hydrochloride plus Naltrexone
Hydrochloride (a) or Oxycodone plus Naltrexone Hydrochloride (b) or placebo taken with 4 to
6 ounces (oz) of water every 6 hours (q6h) for 48 hours following the first dose
(Multiple-dose Period) while in-house. Then for the open-label phase of the study
(outpatient portion) dosing will occur every 4 to 6 hours prn with Oxycodone plus
naltrexone. The active and placebo study medications will appear identical. Study subjects
with acute postoperative pain of moderate to severe intensity following unilateral
bunionectomy surgery will be randomized after surgery, and will stay at the study center for
the duration of the 48-hour double-blind period after dose 1 of study medication. The study
will be conducted in the following 4 periods: 1) a pre-treatment period, 2) a multiple-dose
inpatient period (double-blind), 3) a multiple-dose outpatient period (open-label), and 4)
End of Study/Follow-up.

7. Subjects must experience postoperative pain (Day 1) that is at least moderate as
measured by a NRS score ≥ 4 on a 0-10 NRS, less than 9 hours after discontinuing the
nerve block.

Exclusion Criteria:
