Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Other | To assess the effect of NRD135S.E1 in comparison to placebo with respect to Pain Catastrophizing Scale - Short Form 6 (PCS-SF6) | Catastrophizing is a pain-specific psychosocial construct comprising cognitive and emotional processes such as helplessness, pessimism, rumination about pain-related symptoms, and magnification of pain reports. The PCS-SF6 is a 6-item, self-report measure of catastrophic thinking associated with pain. Scores range from 0-24, with higher scores indicating more catastrophizing. | 13 weeks | |
Other | To assess the effect of NRD135S.E1 in comparison to placebo with respect to the Pain, Enjoyment, and General activity scale (PEG). | The PEG is a three-item (each scored 0-10) multidimensional pain measure designed and validated for use in primary care and other ambulatory clinic patients, as a practical and useful tool to improve assessment and monitoring of chronic pain in primary care. | 13 weeks | |
Other | To assess the effect of NRD135S.E1 in comparison to placebo with respect to the PROMIS Physical Functioning Short-Form 6b | The Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Physical Functioning short form is a 6-item scale that is widely used in pain research. It is a unidimensional scale that shows broad coverage of the physical function construct, good construct validity, and high levels of temporal stability. The PROMIS Physical Function Scale is expressed as a T-score, with a population mean of 50 and SD of 10. Higher scores represent better physical functioning; possible T scores in this distribution range from 21 to 59 (PROMIS, 2020). | 13 weeks | |
Other | To assess the effect of NRD135S.E1 in comparison to placebo with respect to the Pain Health Questionnaire (PHQ-2). | The 2-item PHQ-2 is a brief depression screening tool that correlates strongly with PHQ-9 scores and shows good sensitivity for identifying individuals with depressive disorders in the general population in a variety of medical samples. Scores range from 0-6, with higher scores indicating more depressive symptomatology. | 13 weeks | |
Other | To assess the effect of NRD135S.E1 in comparison to placebo with respect to the Generalized Anxiety Disorder - 2 item scale (GAD-2). | The GAD-2 is a 2-item screening tool that is widely used to screen for clinically significant anxiety symptoms and anxiety disorders in clinical settings. It shows good sensitivity and specificity as a screening tool for anxiety disorders. Scores range from 0-6, with higher scores indicating more anxiety symptomatology. | 13 weeks | |
Other | To assess the effect of NRD135S.E1 in comparison to placebo with respect to the Tobacco, Alcohol, Prescription medication, and other Substance use Tool (TAPS-1). | The TAPS-1 is the screening component of the TAPS tool and consists of a single stem question with four items covering the frequency of past-12-month use of tobacco, alcohol, and illicit drugs, and non-medical use of prescription medications. Scores range from 0-4; higher scores indicate a higher likelihood of problematic substance use. The TAPS-1 shows good sensitivity and specificity for identifying substance use disorders. | 13 weeks | |
Other | To assess the effect of NRD135S.E1 in comparison to placebo with respect to the PROMIS Sleep Disturbance - 6A. | The PROMIS Sleep Disturbance short form is a convenient 6-item scale that correlates strongly with the longer forms. The PROMIS Sleep Disturbance Scale is expressed as a T-score, with a population mean of 50 and standard deviation (SD) of 10. Possible T scores in this distribution range from 31.7 to 76.1 (PROMIS, 2021). | 13 weeks | |
Other | To assess the effect of NRD135S.E1 in comparison to placebo with respect to the Sleep Duration Scale. | A single-item scale measuring the duration of actual sleep a participant has gotten, on average, over the past month. Numerical responses will be provided in hours and minutes. | 13 weeks | |
Other | To assess the effect of NRD135S.E1 in comparison to placebo with respect to the Opioid Use Questionnaire (OUQ). | The OUQ is an indicator of past or present use of any of the listed opioid medications. There are a total of three yes/no items where a yes indicates the use of such medications. | 13 weeks | |
Other | To assess the effect of NRD135S.E1 in comparison to placebo with respect to the Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC). | The PGIC is a single-item measure of patient-reported improvement that is widely used as a general outcome measure in studies of chronic pain patients. It is often used as an index of treatment-associated change, and patient-reported improvements in the form of PGIC scores correlate robustly with significant improvement in pain intensity, pain interference with activities of daily living, mood, and quality of life (Perrot and Lanteri-Minet, 2019). | 13 weeks | |
Other | To assess the effect of NRD135S.E1 in comparison to placebo with respect to the Norfolk Quality of Life - Diabetic Neuropathy (Norfolk QOL-DN) | The Norfolk QOL-DN is a validated 47-item, patient-reported outcome measure, sensitive to the different features of diabetic neuropathy (DN) including small fiber, large fiber, and autonomic function. A higher score indicates higher levels of neuropathic pain. | 13 weeks | |
Other | To assess the effect of NRD135S.E1 in comparison to placebo with respect to the Neuropathy examination. | The neuropathy examination will be a single procedure consisting of visual inspection of the feet, brief distal motor exam, ankle and knee deep tendon reflexes, and a standardized sensory exam. This exam will collect the data needed to calculate several common scores including: the Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI) Part B, the Utah Early Neuropathy Scale (UENS) and the Toronto Clinical Scoring System (TCNS). The MSNI Part B consists of visual inspection of the feet and assessment of ankle reflexes, vibration sense, and monofilament testing. The TCNS is quantitative scoring system for evaluating the severity of peripheral neuropathy. Most of the test is done on or near the toes, light touch testing is done with a 10gm monofilament fiber. The UENS consists of testing the distal lower extremities for motor function, sharp sensation, allodynia, vibration sensation, and deep tendon reflexes. It is scored on a scale of 0-42 where zero is normal. | 13 weeks | |
Other | To assess the effect of NRD135S.E1 in comparison to placebo with respect to the actigraphy step count. | Mean daily step counts will be used as an index of physical activity. | 13 weeks | |
Primary | To demonstrate that NRD135S.E1 80 mg daily is superior to placebo in relieving neuropathic pain associated with PDPN, after 13 weeks' treatment. | Change from Baseline to Week 13 in the weekly mean of the daily 24-hour average pain measured by Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) (abbreviated herein as WAP for weekly average pain). The NRS is a 0-10 scale, with 0 indicating no pain, and 10 being the worst possible pain. | 13 weeks | |
Primary | The frequency (i.e. number of participants) with treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) reported in the time period defined by first administration of IP until 7 days after the last dose of IP. | A treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) is any AE temporally associated with the use of study treatment whether or not considered by the investigator as related to study treatment. | 13 weeks | |
Secondary | Occurrence of 30% reduction of WAP from Baseline to Week 13. | Weekly Average Pain is abbreviated as WAP. | 13 weeks | |
Secondary | Occurrence of 50% reduction of WAP from Baseline to Week 13. | Weekly Average Pain is abbreviated as WAP. | 13 weeks |
