Neither group, or both, names a comparator, so the groups keep ClinicalTrials.gov's order.

GroupTitleDescriptionWith the outcomeAnalysedClinicalTrials.gov code
Group 1Prevention of Opioid Withdrawal
Chronic back pain patients titrated onto sustained release oral morphine for 30 days, then were randomized to take either ondansetron 8 mg or matching placebo thirty minutes prior to naloxone-induced withdrawal in clinic (naloxone dose: 0.4 mg/70 kg; if deemed necessary by the clinician to induce withdrawal, a second naloxone dose may be administered at 0.8 mg/70 kg). Participants returned to their titrated morphine dose for one week and then returned for the opposite pre-treatment followed by naloxone-induced withdrawal in clinic. Participants then tapered back to their original dose of morphine for one week.

Group 2Prevention of Physical Dependence
Chronic back pain patients titrated onto sustained release oral morphine for 30 days; during morphine treatment, participants were randomized to take either ondansetron 8 mg or matching placebo three times daily along with the oral morphine treatment. After thirty days, participants returned to the lab to undergo naloxone-induced withdrawal in clinic (naloxone dose: 0.4 mg/70 kg; if deemed necessary by the clinician to induce withdrawal, a second naloxone dose may have been administered at 0.8 mg/70 kg). Participants then tapered back to their original dose of morphine for one week.
