Summary

This study tests whether a new drug called LY4065967 can safely reduce nerve pain in people with diabetes. About 150 adults with diabetic nerve pain in their legs for at least 6 months will receive either the study drug or a placebo. The main goal is to see if the drug lowers average pain levels over time.
