Brief summary
This is a Phase II dose-ranging study to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of DA-9801 in the treatment of pain associated with diabetic neuropathy. Subjects will receive either 300mg, 600mg, 900mg or placebo, three times daily for eight weeks. During treatment, pain score by Likert numerical rating scale, Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) and Change in Clinical Global Impression(CGI)are accessed to evaluate the effectiveness.
Interventions
300mg of DA-9801 tablet is assigned at week 0 point and is taken for 8 continuous weeks, 3 times a day.
600mg of DA-9801 tablet is assigned at week 0 point and is taken for 8 continuous weeks, 3 times a day.
900mg of DA-9801 tablet is assigned at week 0 point and is taken for 8 continuous weeks, 3 times a day.
Placebo is assigned at week 0 point and is taken for 8 continuous weeks, 3 times a day.
