Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 65 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in Adjusted Mean (AM) Percentage (%) of CMAP Total Amplitude at Week 28
Time Frame: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 28
The CMAP procedure was performed on the injected foot by a neurophysiologist. Percentage relative to baseline was calculated as (value at Week 28 [mean of the 3 measurements]/baseline value) multiplied by (*) 100. The adjusted mean was obtained from a mixed-effects model for repeated measures (MMRM) model with Fisher scoring. Baseline was defined as the last non-missing measurement taken prior to study drug administration. Baseline value used for this analysis was the average of 6 measurements, the 3 measurements at screening and the 3 measurements at baseline.
Baseline (Day 1) and Week 28

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in AM % of CMAP Total Amplitude at Week 40
Time Frame: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 40
The CMAP procedure was performed on the injected foot by a neurophysiologist. It was measured as percentage relative to baseline defined as CMAP at the corresponding visit (mean of the 3 measurements)/CMAP at baseline (mean of the 6 measurements)*100. The adjusted mean was obtained from a MMRM model with Fisher scoring. Baseline was defined as the last non-missing measurement taken prior to study drug administration. Baseline value used for this analysis was the average of 6 measurements, the 3 measurements at screening and the 3 measurements at baseline.
Baseline (Day 1) and Week 40
Percentage of Participants With Recovery of CMAP Total Amplitude
Time Frame: At Weeks 28 and 40
The recovery was considered to be reached for all the visits occurring after the time to recovery, that is (i.e.) the first visit for which CMAP total amplitude returned to at least 85% of the baseline value. Percentage of participants with recovery of CMAP total amplitude was analyzed at Weeks 28 and 40.
At Weeks 28 and 40
Time to Onset of Action of Study Intervention
Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 1) up to Week 40
Time to onset of action was defined as the first timepoint when EDB CMAP total amplitude was less or equal to 85% of the baseline value.
From Baseline (Day 1) up to Week 40
Duration of Response
Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 1) up to Week 40
Duration of response was calculated as time to recovery of CMAP total amplitude - time to onset. Time to recovery was defined as the first timepoint where EDB CMAP total amplitude returned to at least 85% of the baseline value.
From Baseline (Day 1) up to Week 40
Percentage of Maximal Inhibition (Maximal Effect) of CMAP Total Amplitude
Time Frame: Up to Week 40
Maximal inhibition was defined as the maximal measured inhibition of CMAP total amplitude of stimulated EDB.
Up to Week 40
Number of Participants Who Achieved Maximal Effect of CMAP Total Amplitude
Time Frame: At Weeks 1, 4, 8 and 20
Time to maximal effect was defined on an individual basis as the time between baseline and the timepoint of maximal inhibition of CMAP amplitude of stimulated EDB. Participants with maximal effect of CMAP total amplitude were reported.
At Weeks 1, 4, 8 and 20
