Inclusion Criteria

1. 18-75 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent. 2. Type I or Type II diabetes with painful, distal, symmetrical, sensory-motor neuropathy attributed to diabetes, of at least 6 months duration; a. Pain must have begun in bilateral distal lower limbs. b. Pain is not related to underlying infection or trauma. c. Diagnosis confirmed by a positive Douleur Neuropathique 4 [DN4] questionnaire at screening. d. Levels of glycosylated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) less than 97 mmol/mol (<11%). 3. On a stable anti-diabetic medication regimen (unchanged dose over the last 30 days for diabetes) prior to screening. Adjustment of insulin dose is acceptable, however, resumption of insulin treatment is not allowed since 30 days prior to screening. 4. No unplanned recent hospitalizations due to noncompliance or uncontrolled diabetes. 5. At screening, a pain score =4 and =9 by the 11-point NRS (0-10) for average daily pain intensity over the past 24 hours. 6. During the run-in period; An average of the average daily pain score of =4 and =9 by the 11-point NRS (0-10). Rescue medication use (if required) must be within the permitted allowance., 7. Documented history of insufficient pain relief from, or inability to tolerate, or contraindication to current standard of care therapy, e.g. antidepressants (tricyclic antidepressants [TCAs], selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors [SSRIs] and serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors [SNRIs]) OR antiepileptic (anticonvulsant) drugs. 8. Participant must be willing and able to understand and participate in all scheduled evaluations and to complete all required tests and procedures including the use of patient eDiary. This will be judged by the Investigator during the screening period. 9. BMI within the range of 18 to 40 kg/m2 (inclusive). 10. Male or Female participant; A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant, not breastfeeding, and at least one of the following conditions applies: Not a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP). OR • Is a WOCBP and using a contraceptive method that is highly effective, with a failure rate of <1%, as described in Section 10.4 during the study intervention period and for at least 16 weeks after the last dose of study intervention. The Investigator should evaluate potential for contraceptive method failure (e.g. noncompliance, recently initiated) in relationship to the first dose of study intervention. • A WOCBP must have a negative highly sensitive pregnancy test (urine or serum as required by local regulations) within 24 hours before the first dose of study intervention. • Additional requirements for pregnancy testing during and after study intervention are located in protocol. • The Investigator is responsible for review of medical history, menstrual history, and recent sexual activity to decrease the risk for inclusion of a woman with an early undetected pregnancy. 11. Capable of giving signed informed consent which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the ICF and in this protocol
