A Multi-Center, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo- (Double-Dummy) and Active-Controlled, Parallel-Group Study of MR-107A-02 for the Treatment of Acute Postoperative Pain Following Bunionectomy

1. Previously dosed with this formulation of MR-107A-02.
2. Subjects with a contralateral foot bunionectomy in the past 6 months.
3. Subject has a concurrent acute or chronic painful physical/restrictive condition expected to require analgesic treatment in the postoperative period for pain that is not strictly related to the bunionectomy, and which may confound the postoperative assessments.
4. Known hypersensitivity to aspirin, NSAIDs or other medication used in the study.
5. Body mass index (BMI) >40 kg/m2 at screening.
