Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Change in weekly mean 24-hour average pain intensity score using the 11-point Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) from baseline to the end of intervention
Baseline to end of intervention (in total up to 16 weeks)

NRS is an one-item assessment of average neuropathic pain intensity which is presented as an 11-point Likert scale with 0 as "no pain" and 10 as "worst imaginable pain".

Incidence of treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs)
10 to 14 days after last administration of study intervention
Number of participants with treatment-emergent adverse events
Up to 14 days after end of treatment with study medication in the respective period.
Number of participants with treatment-emergent adverse events, categorized by severity.
Up to 14 days after end of treatment with study medication in the respective period.

Secondary Endpoints

Change in Neuropathic Pain Symptom Inventory (NPSI) score from baseline to the end of intervention.
At visit 2, visit 4, visit 6, visit 8, visit 10 and at visit 12 end of intervention (EOI).
Change in Patient Global Impression of Severity (PGI-S) score from baseline to the end of intervention.
At visit 2, visit 4, visit 6, visit 8, visit 10 and at visit 12 end of intervention (EOI).
The proportion of participants achieving a ≥30% and a ≥50% reduction in weekly mean 24-hour average pain intensity score (i.e. responder rates using NRS)
From baseline to end of intervention (in total up to 12 weeks)

ArmTypeDescription
Group 1 (BAY2395840 - placebo)EXPERIMENTALParticipants will be randomly assigned to treatment regimen of double-blind BAY2395840, and after an interim single blind period for washout will switch to double-blind placebo.
Group 2 (Placebo - BAY2395840)EXPERIMENTALParticipants will start with a treatment regimen of double-blind placebo, and after an interim single blind period for washout will switch to double-blind BAY2395840.
Dose step 1EXPERIMENTALEach participant will receive an single dose (SD) of dose 1 of BAY2395840 or matching placebo.
Dose step 2EXPERIMENTALEach participant will receive an single dose (SD) of dose 2 of BAY2395840 or matching placebo.
Dose step 3EXPERIMENTALEach participant will receive an single dose (SD) of dose 3 of BAY2395840 or matching placebo.
Dose step 4EXPERIMENTALEach participant will receive multiple doses (MDs) of dose 3 of BAY2395840 or matching placebo.
Group 1EXPERIMENTALParticipants received BAY2395840 dose A as tablets under diet 1 conditions (Period 1). After the safety assessment for Period 1 and a washout period of at least 14 days participants were re-dosed with the same BAY2395840 dose A1 as oral solution under diet 1 conditions (Period 2)

Frequently asked questions about BAY2395840

What is BAY2395840?

BAY2395840 is an investigational small molecule drug developed by Bayer AG for pain conditions. It has been studied in diabetic neuropathic pain, including neuropathic pain associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy, and in endometriosis. It is a Phase 1 stage asset that has also completed a Phase 2 study in diabetic nerve pain.

What is BAY2395840 used for?

BAY2395840 is being developed to treat pain, specifically diabetic neuropathic pain and neuropathic pain associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy, as well as endometriosis. It is investigational and has not been approved for any indication. Clinical studies have enrolled healthy volunteers and participants with diabetic nerve pain.

Who makes BAY2395840?

BAY2395840 is developed by Bayer AG, which trades on the OTC market under the ticker BAYRY. Bayer sponsored the clinical studies of the drug, including Phase 1 trials in Japan and Germany and a Phase 2 trial in diabetic nerve pain conducted across several European countries.
