Brief Summary:
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of NKTR-181 on brain activity in healthy, non-physically dependent recreational opioid users. This study will last about 88 days for each participant.
Detailed Description:
This study is a single-center study in which approximately 24 subjects will be randomized to one of two treatment groups. Subjects will enter a screening period between Day -28 and Day -2. Upon meeting all criteria for enrollment, on Day -1 subjects will enter the clinical research study unit (CRSU) for an overnight confinement. On Day 1, subjects will undergo a baseline MRI and will then be randomized to NKTR-181 or oxycodone immediate release (IR). Once randomized, subjects will receive a single dose of study drug (NKTR-181 or oxycodone IR) and matched alternate-treatment placebo. Subjects will undergo a series of three fMRIs (functional magnetic resonance imaging) post dose (at hours 1, 2, and 4). At post-dose hours 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 8, pupillometry will be performed and PK blood samples will be drawn. Following a 14- to 17-day safety follow-up period, subjects will return to the research facility clinic for the End of Study (EOS) visit (Day 16-19).
