| AMT-143 | Drug | AMT-143 is provided as a hydrogel containing 385 mg/mL ropivacaine (on a ropivacaine hydrochloride equivalence basis). Participants undergoing primary open hernia repair, will be randomized to one of three treatment cohorts of escalating doses of AMT-143 hydrogel:

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events to evaluate the safety and tolerability of AMT-143 | To evaluate the safety and tolerability of AMT-143 for postsurgical pain management following inguinal hernia repair surgery. The safety endpoint of the study will be the incidence of Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs). This will include reported Adverse Events as well as all clinically significant abnormalities in clinical laboratory investigations, vital signs, physical examination results, and ECG tracings. | From surgery to Day 28 follow-up |
| Pharmacokinetics of AMT-143 | To assess the PK profile of AMT-143. Plasma samples will be analyzed for ropivacaine concentrations using a validated liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method. Incurred sample reanalysis will be performed on approximately 10% of study samples with a minimum of 20 samples for confirmation of results. At least two thirds of the incurred samples analyzed should have a percent difference between re-assay & original concentrations within ±20%. Plasma concentration-time data for AMT-143 will be analyzed by the noncompartmental method to obtain the PK parameters using validated Phoenix WinNonlin® version 8.3 or higher software (Pharsight Corp). | From surgery to Day 28 follow-up |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Analgesic efficacy of AMT-143 | To evaluate analgesic efficacy of AMT-143 for postsurgical pain management following inguinal hernia repair surgery utilizing the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). The NRS runs from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain). | From surgery to Day 28 follow-up |
