What is being measured

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

  1. Compare the change from baseline in ADPS between HSK16149 and placebo at week 12

    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

    Measured: Baseline and week 12

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Compare the response rate between HSK16149 and placebo at week 12 (Proportion of subjects whose ADPS decreased by ≥30% and ≥50% from baseline )

    Ratio of Participants Responding to Treatment, as Measured by Average Daily Pain Score (ADPS) Reduction from Baseline. The ADPS is used to determine categorical response rates.

    Measured: Baseline and week 12

  2. Compare the change from baseline in ADPS between HSK16149 and placebo at week 1 to 12

    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

    Measured: From week 1 to week 12

  3. Compare the change from baseline in Visual Analogue Scale(VAS) between HSK16149 and placebo at week 12

    VAS, in which the participant rates pain on a 100 mm-long horizontal line, where 0 mm = no pain and 100 mm = worst possible pain

    Measured: Baseline and week 12

  4. Compare the change from baseline in Short Form McGill Pain Questionnaire (SF-MPQ) between HSK16149 and placebo at week 12

    Participants rate their pain in three parts of the questionnaire, which are combined into a single pain intensity score:

    Part 1 - fifteen descriptors of pain intensity, on a scale of 0 (none) to 3 (severe)

    Part 2 - a visual analog scale (VAS), in which the participant rates pain on a 100 mm-long horizontal line, where 0 mm = no pain and 100 mm = worst possible pain

    Part 3 - a Present Pain Intensity index in which the participant rates present pain intensity on a scale of 0 (no pain) to 5 (most intense pain)

    Measured: Baseline and week 12

  5. Compare the change from baseline in Average Daily Sleep interference score(ADSIS) between HSK16149 and placebo at week 12

    he sleep interference scores on a scale of 0-10, where 0 = pain did not interfere with sleep to 10 = pain completely interfered with sleep. The weekly ADSIS is based on participants daily sleep interference scores

    Measured: Baseline and week 12

  6. Compare the total consumption of Acetaminophen and Paracetamol and Dihydrocodeine Tartrate between HSK16149 and placebo during the trial

    Measured: From week 1 to week 12

  7. Compare the change from baseline in EQ-5D-5L between HSK16149 and placebo at week 12

    The change from baseline in total EuroQol-5-Domain-5-Level health questionnaire

    Measured: Baseline and week 12

  8. AE(adverse event) to evaluate the safety of HSK16149 during the trial

    Number and severity of AEs

    Measured: From week 1 to week 12

  9. Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of HSK16149 capsules in Chinese patients with Postherpetic Neuralgia

    Measured: Week 4,week 8,week 10,week 12

  10. Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) of HSK16149 capsules in Chinese patients with Postherpetic Neuralgia

    Measured: Week 4,week 8,week 10,week 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing HSK16149 20mg BID and HSK16149 40mg BID in people with Postherpetic Neuralgia, run by Haisco Pharmaceutical Group Co., Ltd. at 2 sites in China.

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 17 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 27 Feb 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in China. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Compare the change from baseline in ADPS between HSK16149 and placebo at week 12 (time frame: Baseline and week 12). 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 NCT05140863, 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 27 Feb 2023.
