Inclusion Criteria:

• Outpatients who have completed double-blind treatment in study 322 (NCT01050218) for DPN.

Sexually active women participating in the study who are biologically capable of becoming pregnant must use a medically acceptable form of contraception during the study and for at least 15 days after the last dose of test article. Medically acceptable forms of contraception include oral contraceptives, transdermal, injectable, or implantable methods, intrauterine devices, or properly used double-barrier contraception, eg, condom plus diaphragm.
