What this trial studies

This study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of ONO-1110 in Japanese patients suffering from postherpetic neuralgia, a condition characterized by persistent pain following herpes zoster. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either ONO-1110 or a placebo, with the primary focus on measuring pain relief and overall improvement in quality of life. The study will include patients aged 18 and older who have experienced pain for at least three months after the onset of herpes zoster. The trial will involve regular assessments through pain diaries and questionnaires to evaluate treatment outcomes.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are Japanese adults aged 18 and older with persistent pain for at least three months following herpes zoster.

Not a fit: Patients with other pain conditions or those who have undergone previous neurosurgical therapies for postherpetic neuralgia may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could significantly alleviate chronic pain for patients suffering from postherpetic neuralgia.

How similar studies have performed: While this approach is being evaluated in this specific context, similar studies have shown promise in treating chronic pain conditions with novel therapies.
