Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 90 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • At Sites 1, 2, and 3 - Had painful diabetic polyneuropathy of 3 or more months duration
  • At Site 1 only - Had clinical signs and symptoms of distal predominantly sensory polyneuropathy of 3 or more months duration. Diagnosis of predominantly sensory polyneuropathy were to be confirmed by either nerve conduction studies (large fiber sensory or sensorimotor axonal neuropathy) or by abnormal epidermal innervations on punch skin biopsy (distal leg/proximal thigh) (Herrmann et al., 1999; Holland et al., 1997)
  • Had an average daily pain rating for the baseline week of pain ratings equal to 4 or greater on the 0 to 10 numerical pain rating scale
  • Had at least 2 hours of moderate or severe pain intensity due to polyneuropathy daily in the immediately prior 3-month period
  • Were using stable analgesic drug therapy for at least 1 week (regimen and dosages) prior to screening visit, with the exception of acetaminophen and lidocaine for patients undergoing a punch skin biopsy

Who cannot join

  • Had prior treatment with topical lidocaine, except for use with the punch skin biopsy procedure
  • Were currently under treatment with Class I antiarrhythmic agents (such as tocainide and mexiletine)
  • Had any other pain more severe than the painful diabetic or idiopathic neuropathy
  • Had open skin lesions in the area where the lidocaine patches were to be applied

About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Open-label Trial of Lidoderm® (Lidocaine Patch 5%)in Painful Diabetic and Idiopathic Neuropathy.

Patients with Type I or II diabetes and painful distal symmetric sensorimotor polyneuropathy with dynamic allodynia of the lower extremities, patients with Type I or II diabetes and pain distal symmetric sensorimotor polyneuropathy with no dynamic allodynia of the lower extremities, or patients with idiopathic distal predominantly sensory neuropathy participated in a Phase IV clinical trial to assess the efficacy of lidocaine patches in treating painful diabetic neuropathy or idiopathic distal sensory neuropathy.

What participants receive

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

  • LidodermDrug

    Also called Lidocaine Patch 5%

    Patients participated in an 8-week treatment period; patients at one site were to continue treatment for the entire 8 weeks while patients at two sites were to terminate treatment after 3 weeks. Commercially available Lidoderm® (lidocaine patch 5%) was provided to each patient with up to four patches applied topically 18 hours on, 6 hours off per day to the area of maximal peripheral neuropathic pain.

What is being measured

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

  1. Mean change from baseline to Week 3 in average pain intensity as measured from patient diaries using Brief Pain Inventory Question 5.

    Measured: Visits - V2 (Day 0), V3 (Day 7), V4 (Day 21), V5 (Day 35), V6/EOs (Day 56)

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. McGill Pain Questionnaire

    Measured: Visits - V2 (Day 0), V3 (Day 7), V4 (Day 21), V5 (Day 35), V6/EOs (Day 56)

  2. Other Pain Questions in BPI

    Measured: Visits - V2 (Day 0), V3 (Day 7), V4 (Day 21), V5 (Day 35), V6/EOs (Day 56)

  3. Weekly pain intensity/relief measures

    Measured: Visits - V2 (Day 0), V3 (Day 7), V4 (Day 21), V5 (Day 35), V6/EOs (Day 56)

  4. Pain duration using questions that assess duration and frequency of pain

    Measured: Visits - V2 (Day 0), V3 (Day 7), V4 (Day 21), V5 (Day 35), V6/EOs (Day 56)

  5. Assessment of allodynia

    Measured: Visits - V2 (Day 0), V3 (Day 7), V4 (Day 21), V5 (Day 35), V6/EOs (Day 56)

  6. Neuropathy Pain Scale

    Measured: Visits - V2 (Day 0), V3 (Day 7), V4 (Day 21), V5 (Day 35), V6/EOs (Day 56)

  7. Assessment of safety was based on AEs, skin assessment, physical examination, vital signs, clinical laboratory data, and plasma lidocaine levels

    Measured: Visits - V2 (Day 0), V3 (Day 7), V4 (Day 21), V5 (Day 35), V6/EOs (Day 56)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Lidoderm in people with Diabetes, run by Endo USA Inc., a Keenova Therapeutics Company at 4 sites in United States.

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 5 inclusion and 4 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 15 Feb 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Mean change from baseline to Week 3 in average pain intensity as measured from patient diaries using Brief Pain Inventory Question 5. (time frame: Visits - V2 (Day 0), V3 (Day 7), V4 (Day 21), V5 (Day 35), V6/EOs (Day 56)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 15 Feb 2010.
