Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 70 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Have a clinical diagnosis of diabetes mellitus type I or II for at least 12 months prior to the study.
  • Have received a diagnosis of mild to moderate sensorimotor diabetic neuropathy from a neurologist (a doctor who specializes in disorders of the nervous system) or endocrinologist (a doctor who specializes in diabetes). This type of neuropathy is a loss of sensation and muscle function that occurs in the legs and hands in a stocking and glove distribution. Subjects with diabetic neuropathy that results in loss of sensation or muscle function in only one nerve and results in loss of nerve function of the blood vessels and causes low blood pressure, will not be eligible.
  • If female and of childbearing potential, agree to use a medically acceptable physical barrier method during the study.
  • Have blood pressure \< 140/90 mm Hg
  • Body mass index (BMI) \< 38 kg/m2

You may not qualify if:

  • Subjects with the following are NOT eligible to participate in this study:
  • Have moderate to severe ischemic heart disease, any history of congestive heart failure, or have had a myocardial infarction (heart attack) within the previous 6 months.
  • Have chronic foot or leg ulcers for \>1 month, gangrene in the legs, or any previous amputation of the lower extremity.
  • Have symptoms of intermittent claudication (or leg pain during exercise associated with peripheral artery disease) and/or an ankle brachial index (or a calculation of the difference between arm and leg blood pressures) of less than (\<) 0.75.
  • Have a history of cancer within the past 5 years (except for curable non-melanoma cancer of the skin, superficial bladder cancer in complete remission, or any other cancer that has been in complete remission for at least 5 years).
  • Have colon polyps. If patients have a history of benign colonic polyps that have been removed, they must have evidence of a normal colonoscopy within the last 12 months.
  • Require any drug that depresses patients' immune systems (such as methotrexate, cyclophosphamide, or cyclosporine) when they receive the study drug and for 30 days afterwards.
  • Have a known disorder that affects patients' immune systems (such as HIV/AIDS, hepatitis B virus \[HBV\], hepatitis C virus \[HCV\], sarcoidosis, tuberculosis, rheumatoid arthritis, or autoimmune disorders).
