About this trial
Investigate the efficacy and safety of HSK16149 capsule in Chinese patients with Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathic Pain (DPNP) who had an inadequate response to Pregabalin, following 4 weeks treatment in comparison to Pregabalin

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Compare the change from baseline in Visual Analog Scale (VAS) between HSK16149 and Pregabalin at week 4.
The VAS, in which the participant rates pain on a 100 mm-long horizontal line, where 0 mm = no pain and 100 mm = worst possible pain.
Secondary outcomes
Compare the change from baseline in Numeric Rating Scales (NRS) between HSK16149 and Pregabalin at week 4.
The NRS, in which the participant rates pain on a 11-point numeric rating scale, where 0 = no pain and 10 = worst possible pain.
Compare the change from baseline in Visual Analog Scale (VAS) between HSK16149 and Pregabalin at treatment period.
The VAS, in which the participant rates pain on a 100 mm-long horizontal line, where 0 mm = no pain and 100 mm = worst possible pain.
Compare the change from baseline in Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire (SF-MPQ) betwwen HSK16149 and Pregabalin at week 4.
Participants rate their pain in three parts of the questionnaire, which are combined into a single pain intensity score: Part 1 - fifteen descriptors of pain intensity, on a scale of 0 (none) to 3 (severe); Part 2 - the VAS, in which the participant rates pain on a 100 mm-long horizontal line, where 0 mm = no pain and 100 mm = worst possible pain; Part 3 - a present pain intensity index in which the participant rates present pain intensity on a scale of 0 (no pain) to 5 (most intense pain).
Compare the change from baseline in Daily Sleep Interference Score (DSIS) between HSK16149 and Pregabalin at week 4.
The sleep interference scores on a scale of 0-10, where 0 = pain did not interfere with sleep to 10 = pain completely interfered with sleep. The weekly DSIS is based on participants daily sleep interference scores.
