Detailed Description

A 3 week randomised crossover study to investigate the effect of repeat oral dosing of CNV2197944 75 mg tid versus placebo for on the pain experienced in diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). Each 3 week treatment period is seperated by a 2 week washout period. The primary outcome measure is the change from baseline in the PI-NRS after three weeks of treatment. Secondary outcome measures include pain responder rates, clinical and patient global impressions of pain, and the Neuropathic Pain Symptom Inventory.
