The full spectrum of opioid effects
Opioids are irreplaceable and effective analgesics– at the group level. However, clinicians still cannot predict how much pain relief each patient will achieve, nor who will develop addiction. By treating the variability of opioid effects as noise, the group-based efficacy studies fail to explain why opioids relieve pain in some people, but not in others. Here, I will turn the current approach on its head. By harnessing the valuable information inherent in opioids’ variable and diverse effects, I aim to achieve a breakthrough in our ability to predict individual patient responses to opioids and enable effective personalised pain treatment. SpectrO has three main objectives: 1) First, I will…
