Measured: Baseline, Week 1, Week 2, Week 3 and Week 4
Secondary outcomes (17)
Responder Rate Based on a 30% Improvement in Mean Pain Response Using the Daily Pain NRS Score
Percentage of participants that received ≥30% improvement from baseline in mean pain response (from the daily pain diary).
Measured: Baseline, Week 1, Week 2, Week 3 and Week 4
Responder Rate Based on a 50% Improvement in Mean Pain Response Using the Daily Pain NRS Score

Measured: Baseline, Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, and Week 4
Neuropathic Pain Symptom Inventory (NPSI) - Burning (Superficial) Spontaneous Pain
Participants rated questionnaire to evaluate different symptoms of neuropathic pain (dimensions: burning [superficial] spontaneous pain, pressing [deep] spontaneous pain, paroxysmal pain, evoked pain, and paresthesia/dyesthesia [P/D]) including 10 descriptors quantified on a 0 (no symptoms) to 10 (worst symptoms imaginable) and 2 temporal items assessing duration of spontaneous ongoing and paroxysmal pain. A score in each dimension and also a total score (from 0-100) is generated using data from the questionnaire. Higher score indicates a greater intensity of pain.
Measured: Baseline, Week 2, and Week 4
Neuropathic Pain Symptom Inventory (NPSI) - Pressing (Deep) Spontaneous Pain
Participant rated questionnaire to evaluate different symptoms of neuropathic pain (dimensions: burning [superficial] spontaneous pain, pressing [deep] spontaneous pain, paroxysmal pain, evoked pain, and paresthesia/dyesthesia [P/D]) including 10 descriptors quantified on a 0 (no symptoms) to 10 (worst symptoms imaginable) and 2 temporal items assessing duration of spontaneous ongoing and paroxysmal pain. A score in each dimension and also a total score (from 0-100) is generated using data from the questionnaire. Higher score indicates a greater intensity of pain.
Measured: Baseline, Week 2 and Week 4
Neuropathic Pain Symptom Inventory (NPSI) - Paroxysmal Pain
Participant rated questionnaire to evaluate different symptoms of neuropathic pain (dimensions: burning [superficial] spontaneous pain, pressing [deep] spontaneous pain, paroxysmal pain, evoked pain, and paresthesia/dyesthesia [P/D]) including 10 descriptors quantified on a 0 (no symptoms) to 10 (worst symptoms imaginable) and 2 temporal items assessing duration of spontaneous ongoing and paroxysmal pain. A score in each dimension and also a total score (from 0-100) is generated using data from the questionnaire. Higher score indicates a greater intensity of pain.
Measured: Baseline, Week 2, and Week 4
Neuropathic Pain Symptom Inventory (NPSI) - Evoked Pain
Participant rated questionnaire to evaluate different symptoms of neuropathic pain (dimensions: burning [superficial] spontaneous pain, pressing [deep] spontaneous pain, paroxysmal pain, evoked pain, and paresthesia/dyesthesia [P/D]) including 10 descriptors quantified on a 0 (no symptoms) to 10 (worst symptoms imaginable) and 2 temporal items assessing duration of spontaneous ongoing and paroxysmal pain.

Measured: Baseline, Week 2 and Week 4
Neuropathic Pain Symptom Inventory (NPSI) - Paresthesia/Dysethesia
Participant rated questionnaire to evaluate different symptoms of neuropathic pain (dimensions: burning [superficial] spontaneous pain, pressing [deep] spontaneous pain, paroxysmal pain, evoked pain, and paresthesia/dyesthesia [P/D]) including 10 descriptors quantified on a 0 (no symptoms) to 10 (worst symptoms imaginable) and 2 temporal items assessing duration of spontaneous ongoing and paroxysmal pain.

Participant rated questionnaire to evaluate different symptoms of neuropathic pain (dimensions: burning [superficial] spontaneous pain, pressing [deep] spontaneous pain, paroxysmal pain, evoked pain, and paresthesia/dyesthesia [P/D]) including 10 descriptors quantified on a 0 (no symptoms) to 10 (worst symptoms imaginable) and 2 temporal items assessing duration of spontaneous ongoing and paroxysmal pain. A score in each dimension and also a total score (from 0-100) is generated using data from the questionnaire. Higher score indicates a greater intensity of pain.
Measured: Baseline, Week 2 and Week 4
Patient's Global Impression of Change Score (PGIC).
Participant rated instrument to measure participant's change in overall status on a 7-point scale; range from 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse) at week 4. The PGIC was combined to produce a 3-point scale, "Improved", "No Change" and "Worse".
Measured: Baseline, Week 2, and Week 4
Daily Sleep Interference Scale Score (DSIS).
Participant rated 11-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (pain does not interfere with sleep) to 10 (pain completely interferes with sleep) during past 24-hour period. Higher score indicates a greater level of sleep disturbance. Self-assessment performed daily on awakening prior to taking study medication. This score was measured as a weekly average.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing PF-05089771 150 mg, Pregabalin 300 mg and PF-05089771 150 mg + Pregabalin 300 mg in people with Diabetic Neuropathy, Painful, run by Pfizer at 32 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 4 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 5 May 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 32 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
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 5 May 2017). 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?
Daily Pain Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) (time frame: Baseline, Week 1, Week 2, Week 3 and Week 4). 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 5 May 2017.
