    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Change from baseline in the weekly mean 24-hour average NRS score at Week 12 in treatment period [Baseline and Week 12]

      Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) is the 11-point numerical rating scale of 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). Higher NRS scores indicated worse outcome.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Change from baseline in weekly mean 24-hour average NRS score at each assessment point [Up to Week 12]

      Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) is the 11-point numerical rating scale of 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). Higher NRS scores indicated worse outcome.

    2. Average weekly 24-hour NRS score during the 12 week treatment period 30% and 50% responder rates [Baseline and Week 12]

      Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) is the 11-point numerical rating scale of 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). Higher NRS scores indicated worse outcome.

    3. Change from baseline in weekly mean daily NRS score at each assessment point [Up to Week 12]

      Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) is the 11-point numerical rating scale of 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). Higher NRS scores indicated worse outcome.

    4. Change from baseline in weekly mean nocturnal average NRS score at each assessment point [Up to Week 12]

      Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) is the 11-point numerical rating scale of 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). Higher NRS scores indicated worse outcome.

    5. Change from baseline in weekly mean 24 hour worst NRS score at each assessment point [Up to Week 12]

      Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) is the 11-point numerical rating scale of 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). Higher NRS scores indicated worse outcome.

    6. Change from baseline in NPSI at each assessment point [Up to Week 12]

      Neuropathic Pain Symptom Inventory (NPSI) is the questionnaire to evaluate the different symptoms of neuropathic pain and each symptoms are evaluated from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). Higher NPSI scores indicated worse outcome.

    7. Change from baseline in BPI pain severity at each assessment point [Up to Week 12]

      Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) is the questionnaire to assess the severity of pain from 0 (no pain) to 10 (pain as bad as patient can imagine). Higher BPI scores indicated worse outcome.

    8. Change from baseline in BPI functional impairment at each assessment point [Up to Week 12]

      Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) is the questionnaire to assess the impact of pain on daily functions from 0 (does not interfere) to 10 (completely interferes). Higher BPI scores indicated worse outcome.

    9. Change from baseline in MOS-SS at each assessment point [Up to Week 12]

      Medical Outcomes Study-Sleep Scale (MOS-SS) is the questionnaire to evaluate the "sleep disorder " "snoring" "sleep arousal with shortness of breath or headache" "sleep sufficiency" "somnolence" and "amount of sleep/optimal sleep" ranges from 0 (all of the time) to 6 (none of the time). Lower MOS-SS scores indicated worse outcome.

    10. Proportion of PGIC responders at each assessment point [Up to Week 12]

      Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) is a questionnaire to evaluate the overall impression of pain improvement by patient from 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse). Higher PGIC scores indicated worse outcome.

    11. Proportion of CGIC responder at each assessment point [Up to Week 12]

      Clinician Global Impression of Change (CGIC) a questionnaire to evaluate the overall impression of pain improvement by clinician from 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse). Higher CGIC scores indicated worse outcome.

    Inclusion Criteria:
    1. Patients with written consent

    2. Patients aged >=20 years at the time of consent

    2. Patients whose rate of change in the 24-hour mean NRS score during the 7 days immediately before the first day of the treatment period is <30%.

    3. Patients whose treatment for diabetes mellitus is consistent >=8 weeks before the run-in period, who can consistently maintain the treatment throughout the study period, and in whom the investigator (or sub-investigator) can determine that glycemic control is constant.

    Exclusion Criteria:
    1. Patients with pain, disease, or skin condition that, in the opinion of the investigator (or sub-investigator), would influence the evaluation of painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

    For example, if other pain is in the same location as painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy, or if the pain intensity of the other pain is greater than that of painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy, which in the opinion of the investigator (or sub-investigator) would impact the assessment of painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy.
