Endpoints

Primary: Dose-limiting toxicity of lacosamide in combination with opioids in CP patients will be measured by the number of grade 3 or4 toxicities reported via the CTCAE v5.0, between Day 1 through 21 day follow up., Tolerability of lacosamide in combination with opioids in CP patients will be evaluated by the percentage of compliance in taking lacosamide pills as directed between Day 1 and Day 7.

Secondary: Efficacy of adding lacosamide to opioid therapy for the treatment of abdominal pain due to CP by a 25% decrease in morphine milligram equivalents (MME) of opioid use from the Screening visit to Follow-up visit day 8., Efficacy of adding lacosamide to opioid therapy for the treatment of abdominal pain due to CP by a 50% decrease in BPI-SF average pain score from the Screening visit to the Day 8 visit., Efficacy of adding lacosamide to opioid therapy for the treatment of abdominal pain due to CP by a 50% decrease in the VAS score from the Screening visit to the Follow-up visit day 8.., Efficacy of adding lacosamide to opioid therapy for the treatment of abdominal pain due to CP by a 50% decrease in total score of the Compat-SF pain severity from the Screening visit to Follow-up visit day 8.
