5 Fig. 4 Distribution according to the randomization to TTX or placebo, the type of pain (neuropathic and nonneuropathic) and the response to TTX and placebo. The percentages listed in the figure reflect the percentage of responders in the indicated treatment group. For example, 18% of patients with neuropathic pain who were administered placebo, responded to the treatment according to the predetermined primary endpoint.
