Abstract

The embodiments provide Compound KC-7, N-1-[(S)-2-(oxycodone-6-enol-carbonyl-methyl-amino)-2-carbonyl-sarcosine-ethyl amine]-arginine-glycine-acetate, or acceptable salts, solvates, and hydrates thereof. The present disclosure also provides compositions, and their methods of use, where the compositions comprise a prodrug, Compound KC-7, that provides controlled release of oxycodone. Such compositions can optionally provide a trypsin inhibitor that interacts with the enzyme that mediates the controlled release of oxycodone from the prodrug so as to attenuate enzymatic cleavage of the prodrug.
