Long-term safety and efficacy of mirogabalin in Asian patients with postherpetic neuralgia: Results from an open-label extension of a multicenter randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.

Objective: Postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) is a condition that results from nerve dysfunction following an episode of acute herpes zoster (shingles). Mirogabalin is a novel, selective oral α2δ ligand that demonstrated safety and efficacy in a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled 14-week study in Asian patients with PHN. This 52-week, open-label extension study investigated the long-term safety and efficacy of flexible-dosage mirogabalin in Asian patients with PHN.

Mirogabalin in Japanese Patients with Renal Impairment and Pain Associated with Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy or Post-Herpetic Neuralgia: A Phase III, Open-Label, 14-Week Study.

Purpose: Mirogabalin was recently approved in Japan for the treatment of peripheral neuropathic pain, based on data from clinical trials in diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain (DPNP) and post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN), common clinical conditions which cause intense distress for patients. We characterized the safety and tolerability of mirogabalin in Japanese patients with renal impairment.

Patients And Methods: This multicenter, open-label study (ClinicalTrials.

Results of Mirogabalin Treatment for Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathic Pain in Asian Subjects: A Phase 2, Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Study.

Introduction: Almost one-quarter of Asian patients with diabetes experience diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain (DPNP), which may be associated with moderate or severe levels of pain, insomnia, mood disorders, and worsened quality of life. Current treatments are generally ineffective and may be poorly tolerated. We evaluated mirogabalin as a treatment for DPNP in Asian subjects.

Long-term safety and efficacy of mirogabalin in Asian patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain.

Aims/introduction: Diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain (DPNP) affects the functionality, mood and sleep patterns of patients with diabetes. Mirogabalin, an α δ ligand with a slower dissociation for α δ-1 versus α δ-2 subunits, showed efficacy and safety in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 14-week study in Asian patients with DPNP. This open-label extension study evaluated the long-term safety and efficacy of mirogabalin in Asian patients with DPNP.

Mirogabalin for the management of postherpetic neuralgia: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 study in Asian patients.

This study investigated the safety and efficacy of mirogabalin, a novel, potent, selective ligand of the α2δ subunit of voltage-dependent Ca channels, for the treatment of postherpetic neuralgia (PHN). In this multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 study, Asian patients ≥20 years with PHN were randomized 2:1:1:1 to placebo or mirogabalin 15, 20, or 30 mg/day for up to 14 weeks (NCT02318719). The primary efficacy endpoint was the change from baseline in average daily pain score at week 14, defined as a weekly average of daily pain (0 = "no pain" to 10 = "worst possible pain," for the last 24 hours).

Mirogabalin for the treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase III study in Asian patients.

Aims/introduction: This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of mirogabalin, a novel, potent, selective ligand of the α δ subunit of voltage-dependent Ca channels, for the treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain (DPNP).

Materials And Methods: During this double-blind, multisite, placebo-controlled phase III study, Asian patients aged ≥20 years with type 1 or 2 diabetes and DPNP were randomized 2:1:1:1 to a placebo, mirogabalin 15, 20 or 30 mg/day for up to 14 weeks, with a 1- to 2-week titration (NCT02318706). The primary endpoint was the change from baseline in average daily pain score (ADPS) at week 14, defined as a weekly average of daily pain (0 = no pain to 10 = worst possible pain, for the past 24 h).
