    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    The primary purpose of this protocol is to evaluate the lowest plasma concentration (ie before the daily taking dose of duloxetine) in patients relieved of at least 30% of their neuropathic pain with duloxetine treatment. The secondary purpose of this protocol is to determine plasmatic concentration peak (ie 6 hours after taking duloxetine) in patients relieved of at least 30% of their neuropathic pain with duloxetine treatment. Others secondary purposes are to evaluate the intensity of neuropathic pain, to assess the degree of pain relief and to evaluate the sensation of the global improvement experienced by the patient.

    Arm Title
    patient treated by duloxetine
    Arm Type
    Other
    Intervention Type
    Drug
    Intervention Name(s)
    duloxetine
    Intervention Description
    The concentration of duloxetine is measured by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry on blood sample
    Primary Outcome Measure Information:
    Title
    Measurement of the lowest plasma concentration of duloxetine in pmol/mL.
    Time Frame
    The concentration of duloxetine is measured by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry on blood sample taken at the inclusion visit (V0), before the daily morning dose of duloxetine.
    Secondary Outcome Measure Information:
    Title
    Measurement of the plasma concentration peak of duloxetine in pmol/mL.
    Time Frame
    The concentration of duloxetine is measured by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry on blood sample taken during the V1 visit (28 days after V0, 6 hours after the daily morning dose of duloxetine).
    Other Pre-specified Outcome Measures:
    Title
    Intensity of his pain assessed by Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) in 11 points.
    Description
    The patient will daily report the intensity of his pain on a Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) in 11 points. The mean intensity of pain is measured at V0 and V1 visits.
    Time Frame
    at inclusion visit V0 and at V1 visit (28 days after the inclusion visit V0).
    Title
    Sensation of improvement
    Description
    The sensation of improvement experienced by the patient is assessed at V0 visit on a patient's global impression of change (PGIC) in 7 points scale.
    Time Frame
    at inclusion (V0 visit)
