Trial overview
The available study of LY3848575 was an interventional trial, which means researchers gave a study treatment and then measured the results.[1] It was a Phase 2 trial and is listed as completed.[1] The trial included 450 participants and studied pain in people with painful distal sensory polyneuropathy.[1]
Who was studied
The study focused on participants with neuropathic pain and distal sensory polyneuropathy.[1] Neuropathic pain is pain caused by nerve damage or nerve problems, and distal sensory polyneuropathy is a nerve condition that often affects the hands or feet and can cause pain.[1] The source data does not give more details about age, sex, or other entry rules.[1]
What the trial measured
The main outcome was the Mean Change from Baseline in Average Pain Intensity Numeric Rating Scale (API-NRS).[1] Baseline means the starting point before treatment, and the API-NRS is a pain score used to track how pain changes over time.[1] The brief summary says the study aimed to show that at least one dose of LY3848575 was better than placebo for pain intensity.[1]
Trial design and treatment comparison
Participants were assigned to LY3848575 given by subcutaneous injection or to a placebo made to match LY3848575.[1] A placebo is a look-alike treatment that does not contain the active study drug and helps researchers compare results fairly.[1] This design helps show whether any pain improvement is linked to LY3848575 rather than to chance or expectations.[1]
What the trial aimed to show
The study aimed to test whether LY3848575 could reduce pain better than placebo in people with painful distal sensory polyneuropathy.[1] This is an important question because the condition can cause long-lasting nerve pain that affects daily life.[1] Because the trial is completed, the main research question is whether the measured pain scores showed a meaningful difference between the study treatment and placebo.[1]
