Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether gabapentin enacarbil (XP13512/GSK1838262), hereafter referred to as GEn is effective in the treatment of neuropathic pain associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy(DPN)

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a dose-response study of XP13512 compared with concurrent placebo control and LYRICA (pregabalin), in subjects with neuropathic pain associated with DPN. Three doses of XP13512 (1200 mg/day, 2400 mg/day and 3600 mg/day) are being evaluated for the management of neuropathic pain associated with DPN. Approximately 392 subjects from 70 to 80 participating sites in the US will be randomized to receive either XP13512 at the above mentioned doses, placebo or pregabalin (300mg/day).

Exclusion Criteria

* The pain condition is located at a different region of the body, and
* The pain intensity of this condition is not greater than the pain intensity of the DPN, and
* The subject can assess their DPN independently of other pain condition.
* Other causes of neuropathy or lower extremity pain

* Within preceding month for studies unrelated to DPN, or
* Within six months for studies related to DPN
* Treated previously with GEn
* History of allergic or medically significant adverse reaction to investigational products (including gabapentin or pregabalin) or their excipients, acetaminophen or related compounds
