Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Investigate the efficacy of lacosamide compared with placebo in reducing pain in subjects with painful distal diabetic neuropathy will be determined by pain score ratings assessed in a patient's diary and at clinic visits.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Investigate effect of lacosmide on subjects' perception of sleep, activity, quality of life, and safety, determined by rating scales assessed in a patient's diary and at the clinic visits.

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
This trial was conducted at about 50 sites in Europe and has been clinically completed. Patients had symptoms of painful diabetic neuropathy for 6 months up to 5 years with an optimized diabetic control and at least moderate pain. Patients were not eligible with other chronic pain or any other medical or psychiatric condition, that would have jeopardized or compromised the patient's ability to participate in the trial. After a 2-week run-in phase patients were randomly assigned to one of three treatment arms. All patients who had completed the 6-week titration phase to reach their target dose entered a 12-week maintenance phase. At the end of the maintenance phase, subjects were offered the option of entering the open-label, follow-on trial. The change in pain was measured daily as well as interference of pain with sleep and general activity.
