Cryptogenic Sensory Peripheral Neuropathy in Metabolic Syndrome Clinical Trial
Official title:
Topiramate as a Disease Modifying Therapy for Cryptogenic Sensory Peripheral Neuropathy in Metabolic Syndrome (CSPN)
The TopCSPN trial is a double blinded randomized placebo controlled study of oral topiramate as a potential disease modifying therapy for cryptogenic sensory peripheral neuropathy (CSPN). Patients with CSPN who also have metabolic syndrome (defined by the ATPIII criteria) who do not have an alternative cause for neuropathy will be potentially eligible. The co primary outcome measures are change in the Norfolk Quality of Life - Diabetic Neuropathy (NQOL-DN) Scale and intraepidermal nerve fiber density (IEFND) at the distal thigh. The treatment phase will last 24 months.
