Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in the Total Modified NIS (mNIS +7) Composite Score At Year 3Baseline, Year 3

The mNIS+7 is a composite measure of neurologic impairment which includes the following components: physical exam of lower limbs, upper limbs, and cranial nerves to assess motor strength/weakness (192 points), reflexes (20 points), electrophysiologic measurement of small and large nerve fiber function (10 points), sensory testing (80 points), and postural blood pressure (2 points). The total mNIS+7 composite score is obtained by combining all the component scores, ranging from 0 (no impairment) to 304 (maximum impairment). A negative change from baseline indicates an improvement in neuropathy.

Change From Baseline in the NIS+7 Total Score at Week 52Baseline, Week 52

The NIS+7 provides additional, objective measures of nerve fibre function and autonomic nerve function in participants with diabetic neuropathy. The NIS+7 includes the full NIS, sum of 5 nerve conduction studies (NCS) (Sural sensory nerve action potential \[SNAP\], tibial motor nerve distal latency, peroneal compound motor action potential \[CMAP\], motor nerve conduction velocity, motor nerve distal latency), vibration detection threshold, and pulse rate response to deep breathing. The total NIS+7 score is obtained by combining all the component scores, ranging from 0 (no impairment) to 270 points (maximum impairment). A positive change from baseline indicates worsening.

The scores range from -4 (best possible QOL) to 136 (worst possible QOL). A negative change from baseline represents improved QOL.

Change From Baseline in the Total Neuropathy Impairment Score (NIS) at Year 5Baseline, Year 5

The NIS assessment is a 244-point composite measure of neurologic impairment which includes a physical exam of lower limbs, upper limbs, and cranial nerves to assess the components: motor strength/weakness (NIS-W), reflexes (NIS-R), and sensation (NIS-S). NIS total score is obtained by combining all the component scores, ranging from 0 to 244. Higher scores represent a greater severity of disease. A positive change from baseline indicates the worsening of neuropathy.

Change From Baseline in the EuroQOL-5 Dimensions-5 Levels (EQ-5D-5L) Index Score at Year 5Baseline, Year 5

Change From Baseline in the Composite Autonomic Symptom Score (COMPASS 31) Total Score at Week 52Baseline, Week 52

COMPASS 31 questionnaire measures autonomic symptoms in participants with neuropathy. The questionnaire consists of 31 clinically selected questions evaluating 6 autonomic domains (orthostatic intolerance, secretomotor, gastrointestinal, bladder, and pupillomotor). COMPASS 31 is measured on a scale from 0 to 100, with 100 representing maximum impairment.

Change From Baseline in the Modified Body Mass Index (mBMI) at Year 5Baseline, Year 5

Nutritional status of participants was evaluated using the mBMI, calculated as BMI (kilograms per square meter \[kg/m\^2\]) multiplied by the concentration of serum albumin (grams per liter \[g/L\]). A positive change from baseline indicates improvement in nutritional status.

Change From Baseline in the Rasch-built Overall Disability Scale (R-ODS) at Year 5Baseline, Year 5

The R-ODS is a 24-item patient-reported questionnaire that specifically captures activity and social participation limitations. It measures the level of disability on a scale of 0 (worst) to 48 (best, no limitations), higher score indicates a better outcome. A negative change from baseline indicates worsening of disability.

Change From Baseline in the NIS+7 Component: NIS-Weakness (NIS-W) Score at Year 5Baseline, Year 5

The NIS+7 provides additional, objective measures of nerve fiber function and autonomic nerve function in participants with diabetic neuropathy. The NIS+7 includes the full NIS (NIS-W, NIS-R, NIS-S), sum of 5 nerve conduction studies (NCS) (Sural SNAP, tibial motor nerve distal latency, peroneal CMAP, motor nerve conduction velocity, motor nerve distal latency), vibration detection threshold, and pulse rate response to deep breathing. NIS-W is a measure of motor strength, comprised of cranial nerve and both upper and lower limb motor assessments. The score ranges from 0 to 192. A higher score indicates greater severity of disease.

Change From Baseline in the 10-meter Walk Test (10-MWT) Speed at Year 5Baseline, Year 5

10-MWT is a measure of ambulatory ability and walk speed. It measures the speed (in meters per second \[m/s\]) of a participant to walk 10 meters. A negative change from baseline represents decreased ambulatory ability.

Change From Baseline in the Hand Grip Strength at Week 52Baseline, Week 52

Hand grip strength was measured by dynamometer. Grip strength in the dominant arm is a measure of motor function, with a higher grip strength indicating better motor function. The mean change from baseline in the hand grip strength was reported.
