This is a randomized (study drug assigned by chance), double-blind (neither the physician nor the patient knows the name of the assigned drug) study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of JNJ-42160443 compared with placebo in the treatment of men and women 18 years of age or older who are terminally ill (ie, patients who are in or who are candidates for hospice or palliative \[other medical care\] care for end-of-life management) with moderate to severe, chronic, cancer-related pain that is not controlled by standard pain medications and who have a diagnosis of active cancer. The duration of the study will be approximately 62 weeks (includes screening, the 4-week double-blind phase followed by the 48-week open-label \[study doctor and patient knows the name of the assigned treatment\] extension phase and a posttreatment phase). A single dose of JNJ-42160443 or matching placebo given as an (subcutaneous \[SC\]) injection under the skin during the double-blind treatment period. During the open-label period, JNJ-42160443 will be given once every 4 weeks for up to 48 weeks.
