Pre-Assignment Details
Significant events and approaches for the overall study following participant enrollment, but prior to group assignment
Participants were administered placebo tablet in single blind manner and evaluated for the inclusion/exclusion criteria during the 1-week screening phase. Participants who demonstrated a high response to placebo, i.e., <=30% decrease on the VAS, were discontinued from the study at the end of the screening phase.

Reporting Groups
  Description
Placebo Placebo was administered twice a day for 15 weeks.
Pregabalin Pregabalin was administered twice a day at the starting dose of 150 mg/day in the first week and escalated to 300 mg/day at the end of Week 1. Pregabalin dose was titrated to 450 mg/day at the end of Week 2 based on the participant’s individual response and tolerability to pregabalin. Treatment period was 15 weeks that consisted of 3-week dose optimization phase and 12-week fixed dose phase.
