•Subjects must have a minimum mean of 3 TN related pain paroxysms per day with a mean ADP of 4 to 10, inclusive, on the 11-point NRS (0= no pain; 10= maximum pain imaginable) during the 4-week baseline phase to enter the treatment phase (to be ran-domized).

Female subjects not of childbearing potential are defined as any female who: is post-menopausal by history, defined as:

Age < 55 years and spontaneous menses within the past 1 year, but currently amenorrhe-ic (eg, spontaneous or secondary to hysterectomy), AND with postmenopausal gonado-tropin levels (luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone levels > 40 IU/L) or postmenopausal estradiol levels (< 5 ng/dL) or according to the definition of postmen-opausal range for the laboratory involved.
