入选标准

  • A diagnosis of classical trigeminal neuralgia or idiopathic trigeminal neuralgia according to criteria of The International Classification of Headache Disorders 3rd edition.
  • Age between 18 and 85 years
  • Subjects must experience pain defined as minimum one TN related pain paroxysm per day of an average intensity of 3 to 10, inclusive, on the 11-point NRS (0 = no pain; 10 = maximum pain imaginable) during the last 4 weeks to enter the baseline phase.
  • During baseline phase subjects must experience pain defined as minimum one TN related pain paroxysm per day of an average intensity of 3 to 10, inclusive, on the 11-point NRS (0= no pain; 10= maximum pain imaginable) to be randomized.
  • Fluency in Danish

排除标准

  • Severe cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease such as ischemic heart disease, myocardial infarction or previous stroke or transient ischemic attack, major CVD interventions during the last three months.
  • Expected poor compliance, i.e., considered unlikely to be able to complete all protocol required study visits or procedures, and/or to comply with all required study procedures to the best of the subject’s and investigator’s knowledge
  • Ongoing and unstable severe psychiatric disease.
  • Anamnestic or clinical symptoms of any kind that are deemed relevant for study participation by the physician who examines the patient.
  • Change of trigeminal neuralgia treatment or treatment dose within two weeks prior to the baseline visit.
  • Previous treatment with botulinum toxin A for facial pain.
  • Loading treatment within 4 weeks with phenytoin or sodium valproate.
  • Female subjects either pregnant, breastfeeding or with planned conception within the study period.
  • Female subject of childbearing potential who is unwilling to use an acceptable method of effective contraception during the study (see protocol for acceptable methods).
