About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Acute Pain
Eligibility Criteria
Key Inclusion Criteria:
Before Surgery
- Participants scheduled to undergo a primary unilateral bunionectomy with distal first metatarsal osteotomy (i.e., Austin procedure) and internal fixation under regional anesthesia (Mayo and popliteal sciatic block)
After Surgery
- Participant is lucid and able to follow commands
- All analgesic guidelines were followed during and after the bunionectomy
Key Exclusion Criteria:
Before Surgery
- Prior history of bunionectomy or or other foot surgery on the index foot; or bunionectomy on the opposite foot
- History of cardiac dysrhythmias within the last 2 years requiring anti-arrhythmia treatment(s)
- Any prior surgery within 1 month before the first study drug dose
After Surgery
- Participant had a type 3 deformity requiring a base wedge osteotomy, concomitant surgery such as hammertoe repair; or experienced medical complications during the bunionectomy
- Participant had a medical complication during the bunionectomy that, in the opinion of the investigator, should preclude randomization
Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply.
