What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PregabalinDrug

    Pregabalin will be administered orally, twice a day for 12 weeks, including 4-week dose adjustment phase followed by 8-week maintenance phase. The minimum allowable pregabalin dose during the trial will be 75 mg BID (150 mg/day) and the maximum allowable dose will be 300 mg BID (600 mg/day).

What is being measured

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

  1. Change From Baseline to End of Treatment (EOT) in Weekly Mean Pain Score on the Daily Pain Rating Scale (DPRS)

    11 point Likert scale: range 0 to 10 (no pain to worst possible pain) over past 24 hours. Baseline score = mean score of preceding 7 days (including Visit 2). Final end of treatment (EOT) pain score = mean pain score from last 7 post-Baseline days preceding Visit 8 (Week 12) or last 7 days on study drug for those who did not complete the study. Change = mean at EOT minus mean at Baseline.

    Measured: Baseline, End of Treatment

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Change From Baseline in Mean Pain Score on the Daily Pain Rating Scale (DPRS)

    11 point Likert scale; range: 0 to 10 (no pain to worst possible pain) over past 24 hours. Baseline score = mean score of preceding 7 days (including Visit 2). Weekly pain score = mean pain score from last 7 post-Baseline days preceding observation visit or last 7 days on study drug for early termination. Change = mean at observation minus mean at Baseline.

    Measured: Week 4, Week 8, Week 12

  2. Change From Baseline (BL) in Modified Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form (m-BPI-sf): Pain Severity Index Scores

    Self-administered questionnaire: change from Baseline in mean pain severity index over past 24 hours; 11-point numeric rating scale ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain possible). Pain severity index is the mean of item scores 2, 3, and 4 (pain right now, worst pain, and average pain level). Change = mean score at observation minus mean score at Baseline.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 8, Week 12, EOT/LOCF

  3. Change From Baseline in Modified Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form (m-BPI-sf): Pain Interference Index Scores

    Self-administered questionnaire: change from Baseline in mean pain interference with functional activities (general activity, mood, walking ability, relations with other people, sleep, normal work, and enjoyment of life) in past 24 hours. 11-point scale from 0 (does not interfere) to 10 (completely interferes). Change = observation mean minus Baseline mean.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 8, Week 12, End of Treatment/Last Observation Carried Forward (EOT/LOCF)

  4. Pain Treatment Satisfaction Scale (PTSS): Impact of Current Pain Medication

    Impact of current pain medication response scale: 0 (worst possible response) to 100 (best possible response). Score=[(5-mean of non-missing items)*100]/4.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 8, Week 12, EOT/LOCF

  5. Pain Treatment Satisfaction Scale (PTSS): Satisfaction With Current Pain Medication

    Satisfaction with current pain medication response scale: 0 (worst possible response) to 100 (best possible response). Score=[(5-mean of non-missing items)*100]/4.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 8, Week 12, EOT/LOCF

  6. Change From Baseline in Visual Analogue Scale for Pain (VAS-pain)

    100 mm line (Visual Analog Scale) marked by subject; Intensity of pain range (over past week): 0 = no pain to 100 = worst possible pain. Change = observation mean minus Baseline mean.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, Week 4, Week 8, Week 12, EOT/LOCF

  7. Change From Baseline in Global Anxiety Visual Analogue Scale (GA-VAS)

    100-mm line (Visual Analog Scale) marked by the subject to measure their degree of anxiety over past 24 hours. Range: 0 = not at all anxious to 100 = extremely anxious. Change = mean score at observation minus mean score at Baseline.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 8, Week 12, EOT/LOCF

  8. Change From Baseline in Mean Daily Sleep Interference Score (DSIS)

    Daily sleep interference measured on an 11-point Likert scale. Range: 0 (pain did not interfere with sleep) to 10 (pain completely interfered with sleep). Change = mean at observation minus mean at Baseline. Evaluations recorded in patient's daily sleep diaries.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, Week 4, Week 5, Week 6, Week 7, Week 8, Week 9, Week 10, Week 11, Week 12, EOT/LOCF

  9. Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC)

    7-point participant rating scale for change observed in their overall status since beginning of study medication. Range: 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse)

    Measured: End of Treatment/ Last Observation Carried Forward (Week 12 or last post-baseline assessment)

  10. Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGIC)

    7-point investigator rating scale of change in participant's status since beginning study medication. Range: 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse).

    Measured: End of Treatment/ Last Observation Carried Forward (Week 12 or last post-baseline assessment)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Pregabalin in people with Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathic Pain (DPN) and Postherpetic Neuralgia (PHN), run by Pfizer's Upjohn has merged with Mylan to form Viatris Inc. at 11 sites in 5 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 sites in Mexico, Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 19 Aug 2009). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change From Baseline to End of Treatment (EOT) in Weekly Mean Pain Score on the Daily Pain Rating Scale (DPRS) (time frame: Baseline, End of Treatment). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00407511, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Feb 2021.
