Herniorrhaphy for Postoperative Pain

1. Is the biology right?

• Somatic driver evidence: no · None of SCN1A, SCN5A, SCN4A, OPRM1, PTGS2, PTGS1, FAAH has somatic-mutation evidence in chromosome 9p deletion syndrome

  Rule: Open Targets has somatic-mutation evidence for the target in this cancer. Source: Open Targets: SCN1A in chromosome 9p deletion syndrome, 2026-11-11
• Human genetic evidence: no · No germline or somatic evidence for SCN1A, SCN5A, SCN4A, OPRM1, PTGS2, PTGS1, FAAH in chromosome 9p deletion syndrome

  Rule: Any germline or somatic human genetic evidence for the target in this cancer, counted apart from animal-model and literature evidence. Source: Open Targets: SCN1A in chromosome 9p deletion syndrome, 2026-11-11
• Pediatric target: no · Not on the FDA list

  Rule: Target is on FDA's Pediatric Molecular Target List (relevant targets); membership alone neither requires nor waives a study. Source: FDA Pediatric Molecular Target List (Listed as February 2026 on the FDA Pediatric Oncology page; the file served is 9.7.22_the_relevant_molecular_target_list.xlsx, whose Summary of Changes sheet is headed 'SEPTEMBER 2022 UPDATE' (footnote date 2022-09-01)), 2026-11-11
• Haematologic cancer: no · Solid tumour

  Rule: From the indication, or the registry conditions when no indication matches. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05813847, 2026-11-11

  Published context: Likelihood of approval from phase 1: 7.5% haematologic vs 4.6% solid (BIO / Informa / QLS 2021, 2011–2020). Population-level, not a prediction.

• SCN1A (via local anaesthetic): Open Targets has no association between SCN1A and chromosome 9p deletion syndrome. · Open Targets: SCN1A in chromosome 9p deletion syndrome
• SCN5A (via local anaesthetic): Open Targets has no association between SCN5A and chromosome 9p deletion syndrome. · Open Targets: SCN5A in chromosome 9p deletion syndrome

• PTGS2 (via Acetaminophen): Open Targets has no association between PTGS2 and chromosome 9p deletion syndrome. · Open Targets: PTGS2 in chromosome 9p deletion syndrome

2. Can the result be trusted?

• Randomised: yes · Randomised allocation

  Rule: Registry allocation field. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05813847, 2026-11-11
• Small denominator: no · 518 enrolled; each patient moves a rate by 100 ÷ 518 = 0.2 points

  Rule: Enrolment under 30; the arithmetic is shown, not a benchmark. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05813847, 2026-11-11
• Primary endpoint is overall survival: no · Pain control

  Rule: A registered primary outcome measure names overall survival. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05813847, 2026-11-11

  Published context: Non-OS primary endpoint: odds ratio 2.79 for a positive phase 3 (Otsuka 2021, 400 phase 3 oncology trials, to 2020). Shown with the next figure: a surrogate is easier to hit, and often a weak guide to survival.

  Published context: 52% of surrogate-to-OS correlations are low (Prasad 2015, published to 2014). Shown with the figure above.
• Results overdue: yes · Primary completion 2025-09-15, 13 months ago; no results posted

  Rule: Primary completion (actual) more than 12 months ago and no results posted to the registry. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05813847, 2026-11-11

  Published context: 40.9% of applicable trials report results within a year (Results-reporting studies summarised in spec §11, all therapy areas). All areas, not oncology only.

4. Too crowded, or too late?

• Stopped on this target: 125 terminated, withdrawn or suspended trials of drugs against SCN1A; 19 give no reason. Reasons are quoted as the registry gives them on the target page. · SCN1A: what already stopped

5. Can it be approved, and stay approved?

• Single-country: yes · The only site is in United States

  Rule: All listed sites are in one country; the share of US sites is shown. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05813847, 2026-11-11
