Study summary

This is a Phase II dose-ranging study to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of DA-9801 in the treatment of pain associated with diabetic neuropathy. Subjects will receive either 300mg, 600mg, 900mg or placebo, three times daily for eight weeks. During treatment, pain score by Likert numerical rating scale, Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) and Change in Clinical Global Impression(CGI)are accessed to evaluate the effectiveness.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Difference in average 24-h pain intensity (Likert scale) between before and after IP administration

    Subject records the average pain intensity for the past 24 hours in the patient diary at the same time every morning.

    Time frame: 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes

  1. Inter-group difference in average 24-h pain intensity (Likert scale)

    The mean value of the last one week since the date of visit was calculated to compare the difference between treatment groups.

    Time frame: 8 weeks

  2. Most severe mean pain intensity (Likert Scale)

    Subject records the most severe pain intensity for the past 24 hours in the patient diary at the same time every morning.

    Time frame: 4, 8 weeks

  3. Overnight pain intensity (Likert Scale)

    Subject records the overnight pain intensity during the previous night in the patient diary at the same time every morning.

    Time frame: 4, 8 weeks

  4. Patient's Global Impression of improvement (1 point ~ 7 point)

    Subject evaluated the level of symptom improvement during the visits after IP administration.

    Time frame: 4, 8 weeks

  5. Clinical Global Impression of severity (1 point ~ 7 point)

    Investigator evaluated the level of symptom severity when a subject visited the institution.

    Time frame: 4, 8 weeks

  6. Average daily dose of acetaminophen

    Subject records dose of acetaminophen during the past 24 hours in patient diary at the same time every

    Time frame: everyday(-2 weeks~0), everyday(0~8 weeks)
