E‐52862—A selective sigma‐1 receptor antagonist, in peripheral neuropathic pain: Two randomized, double‐blind, phase 2 studies in patients with chronic postsurgical pain and painful diabetic neuropathy

These proof-of-concept studies validate the mode of action of E-52862, a selective sigma-1 receptor antagonist. In CPSP, E-52862 resulted in clinically meaningful pain relief. In PDN, reductions in pain intensity were seen with E-52862; high placebo response rates may have prevented differentiation between E-52862 and placebo. These findings are clinically relevant given that neuropathic pain is highly incapacitating, lacking effective treatments and representing a significant unmet medical need, and support further development of sigma-1 receptor antagonists for peripheral neuropathic pain.

Abstract

These proof-of-concept studies validate the mode of action of E-52862, a selective sigma-1 receptor antagonist. In CPSP, E-52862 resulted in clinically meaningful pain relief. In PDN, reductions in pain intensity were seen with E-52862; high placebo response rates may have prevented differentiation between E-52862 and placebo. These findings are clinically relevant given that neuropathic pain is highly incapacitating, lacking effective treatments and representing a significant unmet medical need, and support further development of sigma-1 receptor antagonists for peripheral neuropathic pain.
