Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of SR419 in PHN patients. Each subject will participate in the study for up to approximately 14 weeks. This includes a screening period, drug treatment period, and post-treatment safety follow-up period. This is a crossover design study, in which subjects will be administered with SR419 and placebo according to their randomized sequence, that is, eligible subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to 1 of 2 double-blind treatment sequences: 30 mg of SR419 administered TID followed by placebo administered TID or placebo administered TID followed by 30 mg of SR419 administered TID.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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 and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Adult male or female over 18 years old;
  2. Having neuropathic pain of postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) that persists for >3 months after the herpes zoster rash is healed, with the pain area of a continuous area of affected rash.
  3. DN4 score is ≥4 at Screening;
  4. Average PI-NRS score of PHN-associated neuropathic pain over the last 24 hours at Screening is ≥4 and ≤9;
  5. Female subjects must be non-pregnant and non-lactating;

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Other pains that cannot be clearly differentiated from PHN and may interfere with PHN assessment;
  2. Circumstances that may affect pain assessment as determined by the investigator, such as skin disorders in the affected skin area that may affect sensation;
  3. Active herpes zoster infection at screening;
  4. Serious acute or chronic medical condition that, as assessed by the investigator, could increase the risks in subjects for participating in the trial or taking the study drug, or interfere with the study results;
  5. Previous administration of other study drugs within 30 days or 5 half-lives before the study intervention used in this study (whichever is longer).

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
Daily Average Pain Score (DAPS)
Time Frame: up to Day 64
To assess the difference between the two treatment periods in the weekly average of Daily Average Pain Score (DAPS) at the last week. The pain intensity numerical rating scale (PI-NRS) consists of an 11-point numeric scale ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst imaginable pain). Participants described their pain during the past 24 hours by choosing the appropriate number between 0 and 10.
up to Day 64

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
Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC)
Time Frame: up to Day 64
To assess the proportion of subjects who rate their pain as "much improved" or "very much improved" on the Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) at the end of each treatment period.
up to Day 64
Daily Sleep Interference Score
Time Frame: up to Day 64
To assess the within-subject difference between the two treatment periods in the weekly average of daily sleep interference scores at the last week. Pain-related sleep interference score was assessed on Daily Sleep Interference Scale (DSIS) which is an 11-point numerical rating scale ranging from 0 (did not interfere with sleep) to 10 (completely interfered [unable to sleep due to pain]). Participants were to describe how their pain had interfered with their sleep during the past 24 hours by choosing the appropriate number between 0 and 10.
up to Day 64
Adverse events
Time Frame: up to Day 70
To collect the adverse events during the study
up to Day 70

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Plasma concentration of SR419
Time Frame: on Day 15 and Day 36
To measure the plasma concentration of SR419 after dosing
on Day 15 and Day 36
