BACKGROUND: Bupivacaine extended-release liposome injection is a novel formulation of bupivacaine designed to achieve long-acting postoperative analgesia.OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to compare the magnitude and duration of postoperative analgesia from a single dose of bupivacaine extended-release injection with placebo administered intraoperatively in patients undergoing hemorrhoidectomy.DESIGN: This evaluation was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled phase 3 study.SETTINGS: Data were obtained from 13 centers in the Republic of Georgia, Poland, and Serbia.PATIENTS: Included in this study were patients aged 18 to 86 years undergoing excisional hemorrhoidectomy.INTERVENTIONS: All patients received either a single dose of bupivacaine extended-release 300 mg or placebo administered intraoperatively via wound infiltration.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: The cumulative pain score was assessed by measurement of the area under the curve of pain intensity through 72 hours after study drug administration.RESULTS: One hundred eighty-nine patients were randomly assigned and treated; 186 completed the study. Pain intensity scores were significantly lower in the bupivacaine extended-release group in comparison with the group receiving placebo (141.8 vs 202.5, P < .0001). More patients in the bupivacaine extended-release group remained opioid free from 12 hours (59%) to 72 hours (28%) after surgery compared with patients receiving placebo (14% and 10%; P < .0008 through 72 h). The mean total amount of opioids consumed through 72 hours was 22.3 mg and 29.1 mg in the bupivacaine extended-release and placebo groups (P
