Study summary

This is an extension to a previous research trial testing SABER™-Bupivacaine (an experimental pain-relieving medication). The purpose of this extension trial is to assess whether treatment with SABER™-Bupivacaine or SABER™-Placebo has had any effect on healing of the participant's shoulder, wound, or the skin near their scar. This trial will also assess safety (side effects).

Read the detailed description

This research trial will involve all available subjects who received treatment in DURECT Protocol C803-017. All subjects will have the same follow-up safety assessments performed. No experimental treatment will be given in this trial. Subjects, Investigators, and caregivers will remain blinded to the treatment subjects received in the previous trial.
