Naldemedine is indicated for the treatment of opioid-induced constipation (OIC), but reports on its efficacy in preventing OIC are few. Therefore, we retrospectively investigated factors affecting the efficacy of concurrent prescription of naldemedine on OIC. Outpatients with cancer who were started on oxycodone 10 mg/d were included in the study. The eligible patients were classified by their physicians into the following three groups: Group A used regular laxatives before the introduction of oxycodone and initiated naldemedine treatment simultaneously with oxycodone administration, Group B did not take laxatives before the introduction of oxycodone and started naldemedine simultaneously with oxycodone administration, and Group C had been administering regular laxatives before the introduction of oxycodone and were not prescribed naldemedine simultaneously with oxycodone treatment. The Support Team Assessment Schedule Japanese edition score for constipation, frequency of defecation, Bristol Stool Form Scale, sense of incomplete rectal evacuation, and development or worsening of straining to pass bowel movements were compared among the three groups before and after oxycodone administration. In Group B, there was significant worsening of the four parameters except for the sense of incomplete rectal evacuation, whereas Groups A and C did not present any changes. In logistic regression analysis, body weight ≥51.8 kg was a factor significantly decreasing the preventive effect of naldemedine on OIC, and regular use of laxatives was a factor significantly increasing the preventive effect of naldemedine on OIC. Thus, the initiation of naldemedine should be considered depending on the body weight and regular laxative use.
