Hi Stuart,

The actual peripheral neuropathy market is extremely large. Memantine is targeting just painful diabetic peripheral neuropathies. I say just with some hesitation because it is still a significant size market. There are many causes of peripheral neuropathies. Disease states and chemical side effects account for a verity of neuropathies whose pathways of treatment can vary.

I know this does not answer your question. In fact it raises a much larger question. Which other peripheral neuropathies might Memantine effectively target. Furthermore, if and when Memantine gets approval will there be much off label usage for the treatment for some of the other painful neuropathy conditions. Stuart IMO you touched on the tip of the iceburg of potential additional uses of Memantine.

BEST WISHES
Jeffrey
