Recruiting PHASE1 Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathic Pain

Tests treatment safety and results for Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathic Pain

Official title MAD Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, PKs and Efficacy of YJ001 for Spray Use in Patients With DPNP

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06361108

What this study is testing

What is YJ001 for Spray Use?

YJ001 for Spray Use is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily treatment applied to the skin, being studied as a potential treatment for diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This Phase I, randomized, double-blind and placebo controlled study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and PK, and to preliminarily assess the efficacy of topically administered YJ001 in a multiple-ascending dose (MAD) fashion in the patients with DPNP. The study will be conducted at a single study center.
  • Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study
  • You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
