About this trial

Prostate cancer often leads to bone metastases, which require adequate pain management with opioids such as oxycodone. This study investigates whether abiraterone - a drug used in the treatment of prostate cancer - affects the pharmacokinetics of oxycodone in order to improve pain management.

Disqualifiers

Use of oxycodone short acting <48 hours, or long acting <96 hours prior to the study day;

Use of other opioids in the 14 days prior to the study day (see also appendix A);

Use of other medication that has pharmacokinetic or pharmacodynamics interactions with oxycodone (see also appendix A);
