About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Painful Diabetic Neuropathy focused on measuring Lacosamide, Vimpat®
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Subject has clinically diagnosed pain attributed to diabetic distal sensory motor polyneuropathy for 1-5 years and a diagnosis of diabetes mellitus (Type I or Type II).
- Subjects must have at least moderate pain (mean pain intensity ≥ 4 out of 10 during the baseline week on Likert scale).
- subjects must have good or fair diabetic control (Hgb A1c < 10%)
Exclusion Criteria:
- Subject has other conditions that cause neuropathic pain at least as severe as the diabetic pain i.e. peripheral arterio-vascular disease.
- Subject receives treatment for seizures.
- Subject has had any amputations other than diabetically-related toe amputations.
- Subject has major skin ulcers.
- Subject has clinically significant ECG abnormalities.
- Subject is expected to take within 7 days prior to randomization and during the study: TCAs, mexiletine hydrochloride, lidoderm patch, tramadol, AEDs, dextromethorphan, opioids, capsaicin, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, acetaminophen / paracetamol, skeletal muscle relaxants, benzodiazepines, alpha-2-agonists (e.g. clonidine), drugs indicated for sleep disturbance (e. g. zolpidem tartrate, zaleplon) and over-the-counter medications with centrally acting properties.
- Subject has laboratory values which are outside the normal range and judged by the investigator to be clinically significant.
- At study entry, subject has liver function tests values (AST, ALT,alkaline phosphatase, total bilirubin and GGT) 2 times upper limit of normal.
- subject has impaired renal function, i.e., creatinine clearance is lower than 60 mL/min.
