What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To characterise the effectiveness of PD-217,014 in the treatment of chronic pain. A numerical pain intensity rating scale is used to assess pain and a mean endpoint (week 4) pain score change from baseline is calculated.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. - Assess the effect of PD-217,014 on responder rate based on the primary endpoint, mean endpoint sleep interference score and the SF-McGill questionnaire (change from baseline to week 4)
