What this trial studies

This study evaluates the safety and effectiveness of mirogabalin in adult patients suffering from diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain (DPNP) within real-world clinical settings in China. Although mirogabalin is approved for treating DPNP, there is limited real-world evidence on its effectiveness and safety across diverse patient populations, including those with various comorbidities and pain severity. The study aims to gather data that will assist physicians in making informed treatment decisions regarding mirogabalin for DPNP patients.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are adults aged 18 and older who have been diagnosed with diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain and are planning to initiate treatment with mirogabalin.

Not a fit: Patients with severe pain unrelated to diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain or those who have previously received high doses of pregabalin or gabapentin without effectiveness may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide valuable insights into the real-world effectiveness and safety of mirogabalin, potentially improving treatment options for patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain.

How similar studies have performed: While there is existing evidence on the safety and efficacy of mirogabalin, this study aims to fill a gap in real-world evidence, making it a novel approach.
