Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Compare the change from baseline in Average Daily Pain Score(ADPS) between HSK16149 and placebo at week 5.

    The mean change in average daily pain score (ADPS) was measured using a 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS; 0 \[no pain\] to 10 \[worst possible pain\]. The rating averaged over a 7-day period and was based on entries in patients' daily pain diaries.

    Baseline and week 5

  • Compare the change from baseline in Average Daily Pain Score (ADPS) between HSK16149 and placebo at week 13.

    The mean change in average daily pain score (ADPS) was measured using a 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS; 0 \[no pain\] to 10 \[worst possible pain\]. The rating averaged over a 7-day period and was based on entries in patients' daily pain diaries.

    Baseline and week 13

Secondary Outcomes (11)

  • Compare the response rate between HSK16149 and placebo at week 5 (Proportion of subjects whose ADPS decreased by ≥30% and ≥50% from baseline ).

    Baseline and week 5

  • AE, laboratory tests, physical and neurological examination, vital signs and 12-lead ECG to evaluate the safety of HSK16149 in 5 weeks post treatment.

    From week 1 to week 5

  • Compare the response rate between HSK16149 and placebo at week 13 (Proportion of subjects whose ADPS decreased by ≥30% and ≥50% from baseline ).

    Baseline and week 13

  • Compare the change from baseline in ADPS between HSK16149 and placebo at week 1 to 13.

    From week 1 to week 13

  • Compare the change from baseline in Visual Analog Scale (VAS) between HSK16149 and placebo at week 13.

    Baseline and week 13

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

You may qualify if:

  • Males or females aged 18-75 years of age inclusive;
  • Diagnosis of diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain (DPNP) and diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) pain ≥ 6 months;
  • HbA1c ≤ 9.0% at screening and on a stable antidiabetic medication regimen for at least 30 days prior to screening;
  • At Screening, pain scale (VAS) of ≥40 mm and \<90 mm.

You may not qualify if:

  • Peripheral neuropathy or pain unrelated to DPN that may confuse the assessment of DPNP.
  • Skin conditions in the area affected by neurupathy that could alter sensation.
  • Chronic systemic diseases that may affect subjects' participation in the study.

  • Neutrophils \< 1.5 × 10\^9/L, or platelet \< 90 × 10\^9/L, or hemoglobin \< 100 g/L, or
  • AST/ALT \> 2.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN), or TBIL \> 1.5 × ULN, or

  • Acute complications of diabetes in the 6 months prior to screening.
  • Any active infections at screening.
  • HBsAg or HCV Ab positive, or HIV Ab positive, or serum TP Ab positive.
  • Inability or unwillingness to discontinue any other prohibited concomitant medications (see Section 6.3).
  • Failure to response to previous treatment with pregabalin at doses ≥ 300 mg/d or gabapentin at doses ≥ 1200 mg/d for treatment of DPNP.
