Arm/Group Title Placebo Lacosamide Fast Titration (FT) Lacosamide Standard Titration (ST)
Hide Arm/Group Description Subjects underwent sham titration for the entire Titration Phase. All subjects completing the Titration Phase enter a 12-week Maintenance Phase. Subjects receive 200 mg/day LCM for the first 3 days, 300 mg/day for the next 4 days, and reach their target dose of 400 mg/day after 1 week. They undergo sham titration for the remaining 3 weeks of the Titration Phase. All subjects completing the Titration Phase enter a 12-week Maintenance Phase. Subjects had their dose titrated from 100 mg/day to 400 mg/day at weekly intervals of 100mg. Subjects in this treatment group reach their target dose of 400 mg/day 3 weeks after Visit 2. All subjects completing the Titration Phase enter a 12-week Maintenance Phase.

1.Primary Outcome
Title Change in Average Daily Pain Score From Baseline Week to the Last 4 Weeks of the Maintenance Phase
Hide Description An 11-point Likert scale is used to assess the subject's average daily pain. This scale is completed by the subject twice daily (once in the morning and once in the evening). The subject rates his/her average pain over the last 12 hours, from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain ever experienced). The daily pain score is defined as the average score of those collected in the morning and evening. The value reported below is calculated as a difference between the average of the last available 28 days of maintenance for participants completing the maintenance phase (or the last 28 days prior to discontinuation for participants who discontinued in the titration or maintenance phase) and the average of the Baseline week.

Title Within-subject Change in Average Daily Pain Score From the Baseline Week to the Last 4 Weeks of Maintenance Phase
Hide Description An 11-point Likert scale is used to assess the subject's average daily pain. This scale is completed by the subject twice daily (once in the morning and once in the evening). The subject rates his/her average pain over the last 12 hours, from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain ever experienced). The daily pain score is defined as the average score of those collected in the morning and evening. A negative value indicates improvement from Baseline. The value reported below is calculated as a difference between the average of the last available 28 days of maintenance for participants completing the maintenance phase (or the last 28 days prior to discontinuation for participants who discontinued in the titration or maintenance phase) and the average of the Baseline week.

Title Within-subject Change From the Baseline Week to the Titration Phase in Daily Perception of Pain Interference With Subject's General Activity
Hide Description An 11-point Likert scale was used to assess the subject's general activity. The subject rated how the pain had interfered with general activity over the past 12 hours, from 0 (no interference) to 10 (complete interference). A negative value indicates improvement from Baseline. The value reported below is calculated as a difference between the average of the titration phase and the average of the Baseline Week.

Title Within-subject Change From Baseline to Visit 8 in Subject's Quality of Life
Hide Description Quality of life was analyzed using the Short Form-36 (SF-36) Health Survey. The SF-36 is a participant self-rated questionnaire which consists of 8 sub-scores ranging from 0-100 with higher scores indicating a better health state. The sub-scores are: 1. Physical Functioning, 2. Role-Physical, 3. Bodily Pain, 4. General Health, 5. Vitality, 6. Social Functioning, 7. Role-Emotional, 8. Mental Health. Items 1-4 contribute to the physical component Summary (PCS) score. Items 5-8 contribute to the mental component summary (MCS) score. The PCS and MCS were based on the standardized values of the 8 domains. The maximum and minimum possible values for PCS and MCS is 0-100, where higher scores indicate good condition. A positive change value indicates improvement from baseline. As pre-specified in SAP, values were planned to be summarized and disclosed by placebo and LCM 400 mg/day (pooled) groups.
