ng (touch-pressure and heat-pain), and peripheral nerve electrophysiology. The maximum possible score was 346.32 points, with higher scores representing a greater severity of disease.
The clinical meaningfulness of effects on the mNIS+7 was assessed by the change from baseline to Week 66 in Norfolk Quality of Life-Diabetic Neuropathy (QoL-DN) total score. The Norfolk QoL-DN scale is a patient-reported assessment that eva luates the subjective experience of neuropathy in the following domains: physical functioning/large fiber neuropathy, activities of daily living, symptoms, small fiber neuropathy, and autonomic neuropathy. The version of the Norfolk QoL-DN that was used in the trial had a maximum possible total score of 136 points, with higher scores representing greater impairment.
The changes from baseline to Week 66 on both the mNIS+7 and the Norfolk QoL-DN significantly favored TEGSEDI (TABLE 3, FIGURES 1 and 3). The distributions of changes in mNIS+7 and Norfolk QoL-DN scores from baseline to Week 66 by percent of patients are shown in Figure 2 and Figure 4, respectively.

Patients receiving TEGSEDI experienced similar improvements relative to placebo in mNIS+7 and Norfolk QoL-DN score across all subgroups including age, sex, race, region, NIS score, Val30Met mutation status, and disease stage.
