Journal: Efficacy and Safety of Naldemedine for Opioid-Induced Constipation in Children. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 17, 2024 In some patients, grade 2 diarrhea required naldemedine discontinuation, suggesting that it should be used with caution in pediatric patients. Further studies are warranted to determine the optimal naldemedine dose in pediatric patients.

Other treatment options, including intestinal secretagogues like lubiprostone and linaclotide, selective 5-HT receptor agonists such as prucalopride, and emerging adjunctive therapies like transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and electroacupuncture were mentioned...Emerging therapies and adjunctive treatments offer promising results but require further validation through rigorous studies. Future research should focus on long-term outcomes, cost-effectiveness, and comparative effectiveness to better address the complex needs of patients with OIC and refine treatment protocols.

The prevalence of tapentadol-induced constipation following cancer pain treatment (Exhibition Hall/Poster Area) - Jul 18, 2024 - Abstract #IASP2024IASP_2498; More than half patients have not revealed constipation during tapentadol treatment, although the prevalence of chronic constipation since before was 34.8% (8/23). We conclude tapentadol should be prescribed for cancer pain treatment because of a high effectivity and better gastrointestinal tolerability profile.

Journal: Naldemedine and Magnesium Oxide as First-Line Medications for Opioid-Induced Constipation: A Comparative Database Study in Japanese Patients With Cancer Pain. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 11, 2024 The incidence of addition, change, or dose increase was significantly higher in the naldemedine arm than in the magnesium oxide arm of the early prescription group (hazard ratio (95% confidence interval), 1.08 (1.00, 1.17); p=0.0402); the incidence was comparable between the arms of the non-early group. Conclusion These findings may provide valuable insights into real-world clinical treatment patterns and preliminary evidence for the selection of first-line medications to mitigate opioid-induced constipation in Japanese patients with cancer pain.

Review, Journal: Opioid-induced Constipation: Old and New Concepts in Diagnosis and Treatment. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 5, 2024 The bowel functional index is the main tool for assessing the severity of OIC and for monitoring the response. The paper discusses the recent literature on the pathophysiology, clinical evaluation, and management of OIC and provides a pragmatic approach for its assessment and treatment.

Journal: Naldemedine-induced opioid withdrawal with restlessness as the predominant symptom in a palliative care setting. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 23, 2023 In the systematic review and meta-analysis, the use of PAMORAs (mainly methylnaltrexone) was safe and associated with a reduced intolerance to enteral feeding but no difference in the time to laxation. Patients receiving palliative care often exhibit psychiatric symptoms such as anxiety and depression, but OWS due to naldemedine should also be considered as a potential cause.

The fundamental reason is the lack of head-to-head clinical trials providing inter- and intragroup comparisons between PAMORAs, laxatives, and secretagogue agents. These investigations must be accompanied by further valid biopharmaceutical and economic evaluations, paving the way for rational clinical judgment in each context.

Journal: Survey of Prophylactic Administration of Naldemedine for Opioid-induced Constipation (Pubmed Central) - Feb 2, 2023 This study suggests that patients initiated with strong opioid analgesics during hospitalization often presented with poor performance status, and it is important to pay attention to constipation even under NAL prophylaxis. However, the incidence of diarrhea was low, and the safety of NAL prophylaxis was considered to be good.

(Pubmed Central) - Nov 27, 2022 Peripherally acting mu-opioid receptors antagonists (PAMORAs), such as naloxegol and naldemedine, are substrates of P-gp, which prevent their penetration in the central nervous system. In our review, we explore the interactions between P-gp and opioidergic drugs, with their implications in clinical practice.

Retrospective data, Journal: A retrospective study of the efficacy and safety of naldemedine for opioid-induced constipation in thoracic cancer patients. (Pubmed Central) - Aug 18, 2022 A total of 953 OIC cancer patients were treated with Naldemedine, and the response rate for Spontaneous Bowel Movements (SBM) is 72 % (95 % CI, p = 0.004). The efficacy and safety of naldemedine for thoracic cancer patients in clinical practice were comparable with those of prospective studies, which suggest that naldemedine may be effective and feasible for most thoracic cancer patients.
