Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of EMA401 compared to placebo in patients with painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN).
Detailed Description: This was an interventional, randomized, parallel, placebo-controlled, double-blind treatment study consisting of 3 periods i.e. Screening, Treatment, and Treatment withdrawal. Patients were planned to be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to Placebo b.i.d. or EMA401 100 mg b.i.d.. Concomitant use of pregabalin or duloxetine at stable doses was allowed. Based on historical data, it was planned that the study would enroll approximately 50% of patients who were on stable doses of concomitant pregabalin or duloxetine in the study. At the end of treatment period the 100mg b.i.d. arm was re-randomized (1:1) to the same treatment or placebo. Placebo arm stayed on placebo. The planned duration of treatment period was 12 weeks and 1 week of treatment withdrawal at the end of treatment period.

The study was terminated early due to pre-clinical toxicity data that became available after start of trial. Novartis implemented a Urgent Safety Measure (USM) which instructed sites to discontinue study treatment immediately and to have all patients return for additional laboratory assessments (full hematology including coagulation and clinical chemistry panel). Safety data from the USM was presented as a separate outcome measure table and not included in the Adverse Event section
