1. Advancing Pain Relief, Preventing Abuse
Francis S. Collins, M.D., Ph.D.
Director, National Institutes of Health
National Rx Drug Abuse Summit
April 22, 2014
2. “Science in pursuit of fundamental
knowledge about the nature and
behavior of living systems
and the application of that
knowledge to extend healthy life
and reduce illness and disability.”
...
NIH: Steward of Medical and Behavioral
Research for the Nation
3. NIH: Advancing Pain Relief;
Preventing Abuse of Pain Relievers
NIH supports wide array of programs and projects that
– Enhance our understanding and treatment of pain
– Improve our ability to monitor and prevent abuse of pain
relievers
Examples include:
– NIH Pain Consortium
– “Monitoring the Future” study
– Supporting research to curb
epidemic of opioid abuse
5. “Monitoring the Future”
Survey measures drug, alcohol, and cigarette use and
related attitudes among adolescent students nationwide
– Started in 1975
– Conducted at the University of Michigan
– Supported by NIH’s National Institute on
Drug Abuse (NIDA)
2013 survey included 41,675 students
from 389 public and private schools

8. Research: Finding New Responses to
Opioid Abuse
Develop abuse-resistant drug formulations
Devise user-friendly methods of antidote (naloxone)
administration
Create mHealth interventions to help prevent opiate
overdose
Produce new immunotherapies to treat addiction
9. Abuse-Resistant Drug Formulations:
Prodrugs
Problem: changing method of taking opioids – i.e.,
crushing, injecting – increases euphoria; abuse
Challenge: develop drugs that resist tampering; abuse
Research response: oxycodone prodrug
– Prodrugs: inactive compounds metabolized in the body to
produce active drug
– NIH-supported Signature Therapeutics’ Bio-MD™ opioid prodrug
• Resists extraction, tampering
• 2 prodrug types, for:
- Hydromorphone
- Oxycodone: priority
10. Abuse-Resistant Drug Formulations:
Oxycodone Prodrug
Two-step activation process in the body
– Taken orally, bioactivation by trypsin in GI tract
– Cyclization release reaction
Without activation, very little active opioid released
NIH support:
– NIDA
– National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences’ “Bridging
Interventional Development Gaps” (BrIDGs) program
• Supports application to FDA
11. User-Friendly Antidote Administration:
Naloxone
Opioid overdose antidote: naloxone
– Effective: reversed >10,000 overdose cases, 1996–2010*
– Until recently, only available in injectable formulation
• Practically, limited use to emergency medical personnel
New formulation, Evzio, approved April 3, 2014
– Hand-held auto-injector quickly delivers single dose
– Facilitates use by family members, caregivers
Simpler systems could expand availability even further
– NIH/NIDA supporting development of intranasal delivery systems
*Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
12. User-Friendly Antidote Administration:
NIH-Supported Naloxone Nasal Sprays
AntiOp
Developing single-dose, disposable nasal spray
– Combines proven nasal spray device with
stable, concentrated, specially-formulated
naloxone solution
– Investigational New Drug (IND) application
filed with FDA in 2012
– Could be on the market ~18 months
Lightlake Therapeutics
Conducting clinical trials with intranasal naloxone for
treatment of binge eating disorder
– Applying technology to treatment of opioid overdose
– Clinical trials began last fall

14. A Shift from Abuse of Prescription Pain
Relievers to Heroin
Cicero TJ et al. N Engl J Med 2012;367:187-189.
A recent increase in heroin use accompanied a downward trend in
OxyContin abuse – following introduction of an abuse-deterrent
formulation of OxyContin.

16. Vaccines using immune molecules to diminish effects of
abused drugs have been developed
Heroin vaccine development trickier
– Heroin is metabolized into many substances –
each with psychoactive effects
NIH-supported researchers used dynamic approach to
develop heroin vaccine
– Targets not only heroin, but chemicals into which it degrades
Recent tests promising
