Summary

This Phase 2 open-label trial investigates the pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics, and safety profile of TLC590 across various surgical procedures. Researchers aim to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of TLC590 via Safety Monitoring Committee (SMC) in a highly vascular surgical model. The study evaluates TLC590 in bunionectomy, laparoscopy-assisted open ventral hernia repair, breast augmentation, abdominoplasty, and total knee arthroplasty models. Additionally, it determines the relative bioavailability of TLC590 to ropivacaine injection.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals undergoing certain surgeries (like bunionectomy, hernia repair, breast augmentation, tummy tuck, or knee replacement) who need pain management post-operation. Specific eligibility criteria are not provided here.
What is being tested?
The study is testing TLC590 to see how it's processed in the body and its safety across different surgeries. It compares TLC590 with a standard pain relief injection called ropivacaine to find the highest dose patients can tolerate without severe side effects.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects of TLC590 aren't listed here, similar drugs often cause issues like nausea, numbness around the injection site, low blood pressure, dizziness or headaches. The trial will monitor these closely.
