Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Other Number of Participants With Subcutaneous Doses of Study Medication Number of participants are reported based on the maximum number of Subcutaneous doses of either tanezumab or placebo received. Day 1 up to Week 8
Primary Change From Baseline in Average Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN) Pain Score at Week 16 Participants assessed their DPN pain during the past 24 hours using 11-point Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) with score range of 0 (no pain) to 10 ( worst possible pain). Baseline score was calculated as the mean of the average pain scores over the 3 days in the initial pain assessment period. The Week 16 value was the average DPN Pain score calculated for the 7 days prior to and including Day 113 (Week 16). Baseline, Week 16
Secondary Change From Baseline in Average Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN) Pain Score at Week 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 12 Participant rated their DPN pain using 11-point NRS with score ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain) during past 24-hour period. Higher score indicated greater level of pain. Change: score at observation minus score at baseline. Baseline, Week 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12
Secondary Number of Participants With Cumulative Reduction From Baseline in Average Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN) Pain Score at Week 16 Participant rated their DPN pain using 11-point NRS with score ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain) during past 24-hour period. Higher score indicated greater level of pain. Week 16
Secondary Number of Participants With at Least 30 Percent (%), 50%, 70% and 90% Reduction From Baseline in Average DPN Pain Score: Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF) Participant rated their DPN pain using 11-point NRS with score ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain) during past 24-hour period. Higher score indicated greater level of pain. Change: score at observation minus score at baseline. Week 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16
Secondary Change From Baseline in Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form (BPI-sf) Worst and Average Pain Score at Week 8 and 16 BPI-sf (Brief Pain Inventory-short form) is a participant-administered questionnaire developed to assess the severity of pain and the impact of pain on daily functions during the 24-hour period prior to evaluation. It consists of 5 questions. Questions 1-4 measure the magnitude of pain at its worst and least (in the last 24 hours), average, and right now. Responses are provided by the participant on an 11-point numeric rating scale with anchors at 0 (No Pain) and 10 (Pain as bad as you can imagine). Question 5 consists of 7 item subsets (A to G) which measure the level of interference of pain on daily functions. Responses are given on an 11-point numeric rating scale with anchors at 0 (Does not interfere) and 10 (Completely interferes). The instrument is scored by item and by dimension, with lower scores indicating less pain or pain interference. Baseline, Week 8, 16
Secondary Change From Baseline in Neuropathic Pain Symptom Inventory (NPSI) Total Score at Week 8 and 16: Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF) Participant rated questionnaire to evaluate different symptoms of neuropathic pain (burning [superficial] spontaneous pain, pressing [deep] spontaneous pain, paroxysmal pain, evoked pain, and paresthesia/dyesthesia [P/D]) during past 24-hour period and included 10 descriptors quantified on a 0 (no symptoms) to 10 (worst symptoms imaginable) and 2 temporal items assessing duration of spontaneous ongoing and paroxysmal pain. Questionnaire generated a score in each of the relevant dimensions and a total score of 0-100. Higher score indicated a greater intensity of pain. Baseline, Week 8, 16
Secondary Change From Baseline in BPI-sf Pain Interference Index and Pain Interference Score for General Activity, Walking Ability, Sleep and Normal Work at Week 8 and Week 16 BPI-sf (Brief Pain Inventory-short form) is a participant-administered questionnaire developed to assess the severity of pain and the impact of pain on daily functions during the 24-hour period prior to evaluation. It consisted of 5 questions. Questions 1-4 measure the magnitude of pain at its worst and least (in the last 24 hours), average, and right now. Responses were provided by the participant on an 11-point numeric rating scale with anchors at 0 (No Pain) and 10 (Pain as bad as you can imagine). Question 5 consisted of 7 item subsets (A to G) as being pain interference with general activity; mood; walking ability; normal work (outside home and housework); relations with other people; sleep and enjoyment of life. Responses were given on an 11-point numeric rating scale with anchors at 0 (Does not interfere) and 10 (Completely interferes). The instrument was scored by item and by dimension, with lower scores indicated less pain or pain interference. Baseline, Week 8, 16
Secondary Change From Baseline in Patient's Global Assessment (PGA) of Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN) at Week 4, 8, 12 and 16 The PGA is a global evaluation that utilizes a 5-point Likert scale with a score of 1 being the best (very good: Asymptomatic and no limitation of normal activities) and a score of 5 being the worst (very poor: Very severe symptoms which are intolerable and inability to carry out all normal activities). Baseline, Week 4, 8, 12, 16
Secondary Number of Participants With Improvement of at Least 2 Points in Patient's Global Assessment (PGA) of Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy The PGA is a global evaluation that utilizes a 5-point Likert scale with a score of 1 being the best (very good: Asymptomatic and no limitation of normal activities) and a score of 5 being the worst (very poor: Very severe symptoms which are intolerable and inability to carry out all normal activities). Week 4, 8, 12, 16
Secondary Change From Baseline in Euro Quality of Life (EQ-5D)- Health State Profile Utility at Week 16 EQ-5D: participant rated questionnaire to assess health-related quality of life in terms of a single utility score. Health State Profile component assesses level of current health for 5 domains: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain or discomfort, and anxiety or depression; 1 indicates better health state (no problems); 3 indicates worst health state (extreme problems). Scoring formula developed by Euro Quality of life group assigns a utility value for each domain in the profile. Score is transformed and results in a total score range -0.594 to 1.000; higher score indicated a better health state. Baseline, Week 16

Secondary Change From Baseline in Neuropathy Impairment Score (NIS) at Weeks 2, 4, 8, 12, 16 and 24: Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF) Neurologic examination assessed strength of groups of muscles of the head and neck, upper limbs and lower limbs, deep tendon reflexes and sensation (tactile, vibration, joint position sense and pin prick) of index fingers and great toes in order to complete the NIS. The NIS consists of 74 items (37 items assessed on the right side and 37 items assessed on the left side). Each item was rated on a scale of either 0 to 4 or 0 to 2 points, which were summed to calculate a total score. The NIS total score ranges from 0 to 244, where higher scores represent greater impairment. Baseline, Weeks 2, 4, 8, 12, 16 and 24
Secondary Change From Baseline Neuropathy Symptoms and Change (NSC) Score at Week 16: Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF) The NSC (Neuropathy symptoms and change) is a standardized instrument and has been used to evaluate participants for number of symptoms of peripheral neuropathy. The NSC score included 38 (muscle weakness, Q1-19; sensation, Q20-29; and autonomic symptoms, Q30-38) symptom questions where the participants indicated experiencing the number of symptoms (to any severity). The score ranged from 0 to 38, with higher scores indicated more symptoms. The change score is the participant's comparison of the symptoms at last evaluation to the symptoms at onset. A change from baseline > 0 indicated increased neuropathy. Baseline, Week 16
Secondary Change From Baseline in Quantitative Sensory Testing (QST) at Week 16 QST was performed on dorsum of foot and anterior thigh (at midpoint of a line from inguinal crease to midpoint of patella) to assess and quantify sensory function in lower extremity. Parameters were selected to assess small fiber function such as cooling detection threshold (mainly small diameter myelinated fibers, A delta), heat pain detection threshold (A delta and C fiber functions), and large fiber function via vibration detection threshold. normal deviate scores derived from a normal distribution of a reference population. A standard deviate score of 0 corresponds to 50th percentile of control population. Standard deviate score 1.96 corresponds to 95th percentile of normal distribution and -1.96 corresponds to 5th percentile of normal distribution. A normal deviate score indicated how many standard deviations higher (in case of positive normal deviate score) or lower (in case of negative normal deviate score) participant's value was relative to mean of reference population. Baseline, Week 16
Secondary Change From Baseline in the Average Density of Protein Gene Product (PGP) 9.5-Positive Intraepidermal Nerve Fiber (IENF) at Week 16: LOCF IENF density was quantified in 3 millimeter (mm) immunostained skin punch biopsies containing epidermis and superficial dermis to evaluate the amount and morphological appearance of small diameter nerve fibers, both somatic and autonomic, in sensory neuropathies. IENF density was assessed from skin biopsies taken from the distal calves and distal thigh. Baseline, Week 16
Secondary Plasma Tanezumab Concentration Baseline(Day 1), Week 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 24
Secondary Serum Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) Serum samples were analyzed for determining total NGF concentration. Total NGF was analyzed using a validated, sensitive and specific immunoaffinity enrichment liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometric (IA/LC/MS/MS) method. Day 1, Week 8, 16, 24
