Trial Outcomes & Findings for Maintenance of Effect of Duloxetine in Patients With Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathic Pain (DPNP) (NCT NCT00322621)

NCT ID: NCT00322621

Last Updated: 2011-02-07

Results Overview

Maintenance effect of duloxetine 60 mg in patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain (DPNP) was assessed by the change in BPI 24-hour average pain item score from baseline of the maintenance therapy arm (week 8) to 34 week endpoint in patients who achieved at least a 30 percent reduction on the BPI 24-hour average pain item after 8 weeks of acute therapy (Acute Therapy Phase). BPI is a self-reported scale that measures the severity of pain based on the average pain over the past 24-hours. The severity scores range from 0 (no pain) to 10 (pain as severe as you can imagine).

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline (Week 8), Week 34

Population: Patients entering maintenance phase on duloxetine 60 mg QD. Endpoint is the last non-missing measure from Week 12 to Week 34. Last observation carried forward.

Maintenance effect of duloxetine 60 mg in patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain (DPNP) was assessed by the change in BPI 24-hour average pain item score from baseline of the maintenance therapy arm (week 8) to 34 week endpoint in patients who achieved at least a 30 percent reduction on the BPI 24-hour average pain item after 8 weeks of acute therapy (Acute Therapy Phase). BPI is a self-reported scale that measures the severity of pain based on the average pain over the past 24-hours. The severity scores range from 0 (no pain) to 10 (pain as severe as you can imagine).
