Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: COMPLETED

Brief Summary

One of the most common complications of diabetes mellitus is diabetic polyneuropathy, which leads to disability and reduces quality of life. The toxic effects of high glucose concentrations contribute to the formation of ketoaldehyde free radicals, which, at an increased rate of their formation, leads to the development of oxidative stress in the nervous tissue. The planned study of the use of Cytoflavin® in diabetic polyneuropathy is substantiated by its antioxidant effect, which, by analogy with alpha-lipoic acid preparations, suggests its efficacy in the combined treatment of such patients. This clinical study is being conducted to assess the efficacy and safety of Cytoflavin® versus Placebo in diabetic polyneuropathy patients with type 2 diabetes. Study patients will receive study medication, 10 IV infusions followed by 75 days of oral intake. Clinical efficacy will be assessed by alleviation of symptoms (burning, numbness, pain and pricking), using the total symptoms score(TSS), after the completion of the treatment course.

Study Groups

Group 1

Cytoflavin (Inosine + Nicotinamide + Riboflavin + Succinic Acid), 20 ml (two ampoules of 10 ml each) once a day intravenously in a dilution of 200 ml of 0.9% sodium chloride solution at a rate 3-4 ml/min, for 10 days + Cytoflavin ((Inosine + Nicotinamide + Riboflavin + Succinic Acid), 2 tablets 2 times a day, for 75 days

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

Cytoflavin (Inosine + Nicotinamide + Riboflavin + Succinic Acid)

Intervention Type: DRUG

The study drug will be administered in two phases: intravenous infusion of study drug for 10 days followed by oral administration of study drug for 75 days. Thus, the total duration of the study therapy is 12 weeks.

Group 2

Placebo, 20 ml (two ampoules of 10 ml each) once a day intravenously in a dilution of 200 ml of 0.9% sodium chloride solution at a rate 3-4 ml / min, for 10 days + Placebo, 2 tablets 2 times a day, for 75 days

Group Type: PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Placebo

Intervention Type: DRUG

The placebo comparator will be administered in two phases: intravenous infusion of placebo solution for 10 days followed by oral administration of placebo pills for 75 days. Thus, the total duration of the study therapy is 12 weeks.
