Filter by:The objective of this study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of an investigational drug, V3381, for the treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathic (DPN) pain (pain in one's feet and legs, or even in one's hands and arms, sometimes experienced by people with diabetes). An investigational drug is one that is not approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and/or Health Canada.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of pregabalin, duloxetine and amitriptyline compared with placebo in reducing pain in diabetic patients as assessed by Brief Pain Inventory (BPI).
The purpose of this trial is to assess whether 400mg/day of lacosamide is effective in reducing pain caused by distal diabetic neuropathy. Two dose-escalation schemes for lacosamide will be used to further determine the efficacy of the "standard" scheme and to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a more rapid titration scheme. Subjects will be randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups. Subjects in two of the groups will receive lacosamide at a dose of 400mg/day, but different dose-escalation schemes will be used to reach this final dose. The third group of subjects will receive a placebo. Subjects will have a 2 in 3 (66 %) chance of getting lacosamide. The maximum lacosamide dose in this trial will be 400mg/day. The maximum treatment duration will be 18 weeks, including a two-week Pre-Treatment Phase and a 12 weeks period on a stable dose of lacosamide or placebo.
The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of [S,S]-Reboxetine in patients with chronic painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy
We postulate that frequency-modulated electromagnetic stimulation (FREMS) may decrease pain in patients with painful diabetic neuropathy.
The primary objective of the trial is to determine the optimal dose of orally (tablet) administered thioctic acid in the treatment of symptoms of diabetic polyneuropathy (dPNP). It is expected that at least one of the three dosages to be tested (600, 1200, or 1800 mg tablets) of orally administered thioctic acid improves the symptoms of dPNP as compared to placebo. Secondary objectives are evaluations of other variables pertinent to dPNP, safety, and tolerability.
To determine if duloxetine 60 mg once daily can work up to 6 months in treating pain from Diabetic Neuropathy.
The primary objectives of the study are to evaluate the efficacy and safety of three doses of MCC-257 in patients with mild to moderate diabetic polyneuropathy
Foot ulcers develop in diabetics with neuropathy because of cumulative injury over the course of several days. These patients do not feel pain, and do not recognize their foot is being injured until a wound develops. Areas about to ulcerate become inflamed and “hot spots” can be identified. This study’s purpose is to evaluate the effectiveness of a home infrared temperature probe designed to forewarn patients that an area on the foot is inflamed so they can take preventive measures. The study will evaluate the incidence of diabetic foot ulcers among high-risk patients, evaluate the cost of home temperature monitoring compared to standard therapy, and evaluate patient satisfaction. 180 diabetics at high-risk of having foot complications will be randomized into 3 treatment arms: 1) standard therapy consisting of regular foot care; 2) standard therapy plus recording of a structured foot evaluation using a hand mirror; and 3) standard therapy plus infrared home temperature assessment to identify “hot spots.” Device patients will measure temperatures at 6 sites on the foot each day. When temperatures are elevated >4°F patients will contact the research nurse and decrease activity. The primary study outcome will be incident foot ulcers and Charcot fractures.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of DVS SR in the treatment of neuropathic pain associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy.
