UNMET NEEDS...

"For every ten patients diagnosed with MS 100 patients are diagnosed with Peripheral Neuropathies."

There are 10 million diabetics in the US. I have seen figures which suggest that from 10% to 50% experience some form of Peripheral Neuropathy. Assuming say 20% suggests a 2,000,000 US patient population.

Here is some first hand accounts on the search ( personal accounts ) for a treatment that works.

The potential is certainly significant. Surely the market size is large and wide open for rapid penetration. A 20% penetration would be enormous to NTI shareholders. The fact that the Quntiles run Clinicals are enrolling at a much faster than expected pace suggests the market penetration might be equally rapid for a condition with obvious unmet needs. If Memantine works it has a known market. A key consideration.
