Comparing two treatments for diabetic nerve pain
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study compares two approaches to treating nerve pain caused by diabetes. You may be eligible if your diabetic neuropathy is moderate to severe and you can reliably use a phone for study steps.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 45 and 85 years old
- You have diabetes-related nerve pain (diabetic neuropathy) with symptoms like numbness, tingling, burning, sharp pain, or heightened sensitivity
- A doctor has confirmed your diagnosis
- You have a smartphone: Android 5.0+ or iPhone iOS 14+
- You can use a phone steadily (able to type/operate it with your fingers)
