A phase 3, prospective, adaptive, randomized, multicenter, double-blind, triple-masked, parallel clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of N0750 in relieving pain associated with painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy (PDPN).
The objective of this clinical trial is to demonstrate the superiority of treatment with N0750 compared to monotherapy with Cymbalta® (duloxetine hydrochloride 60 mg, delayed-release capsule) and Lyrica® (pregabalin 150 mg, hard capsule, given twice daily for a total daily dose of 300 mg). The clinical trial population will consist of patients of both sexes, diagnosed with PDPN for at least 3 months, confirmed by the presence of signs and symptoms in the Neuropathic Impairment Score (NIS) and Neuropathic Symptom Score (NSS), respectively, and with pain ≥ 6 points on the Numerical Scale (11 points \[0-10\]). The primary objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate the reduction in pain intensity associated with Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN). The primary endpoint of the trial is the change from baseline (Randomisation Visit \[RV\]) at the end of 12 weeks of treatment (Visit 4) in the weekly mean pain intensity in the last 24 hours, as assessed by the Numerical Rating Scale (11 points \[0-10\]).

Evaluation of the efficacy of N0750 compared to Cymbalta® and Lyrica® in reducing pain intensity in patients with painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy
Change from baseline at the end of 12 weeks of treatment in the weekly average pain intensity in the last 24 hours using Numerical Rating Scale (11 points \[0-10\]), where higher scores mean a worse outcome.
Time frame: 84 days
Evaluation of the efficacy of N0750 compared to Cymbalta® and Lyrica® in reducing pain in patients with painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy
Change from baseline (VR) at each week of treatment (week 1 to week 12) in the weekly average pain intensity in the last 24 hours by the Numerical Rating Scale (11 points \[0-10\]). Proportion of subjects showing pain reduction ≥ 30% at the end of 12 weeks of treatment (V4) compared to baseline (VR). Proportion of subjects showing pain reduction ≥ 50% at the end of 12 weeks of treatment (V4) compared to baseline (VR).
Time frame: 84 days
Evaluation of the efficacy of N0750 compared to Cymbalta® and Lyrica® on subject perception of overall change in painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy
Change from baseline at the end of 12 weeks of treatment on the Patient Global Impression of Change questionnaire - PGIC-C (8 points \[0-7\]), where higher scores mean a better outcome.
Time frame: 84 days
Evaluate the safety profile of N0750 compared to Cymbalta® and Lyrica®
Frequency and intensity of AEs (Adverse Event), TEAEs (Treatment Emergent Adverse Event), SAEs (Serious adverse event). All safety analyses will be based on all subjects who received at least one dose of the trial treatments.
Time frame: 84 days
