Change from baseline to 
Week 12 in the average pain 
intensity score (weekly average 
of pain values recorded daily in 
the electronic diary). 
11-point numerical rating scale (NRS)—from 
0 = “no pain” to 10 = “pain as bad as you can

Objective 
Endpoint/Outcome 
Measure description and timeframe 
Secondary 
Secondary 
Secondary 
To assess the efficacy of a 
cumulative dose of 400 mg 
intravenous neridronic acid 
versus placebo on the dynamic 
mechanical allodynia (DMA). 
Change from baseline to 
Week 12 in the pain intensity 
level of DMA. 
Dynamic mechanical allodynia: a tactile 
stimulus is applied in a single sweeping 
motion (1 cm to 2 cm length) on the skin on 
the affected limb. 
The subjects are asked to judge the stimulus 
intensity by means of an NRS (0 to 10). “0” in 
this case means “no pain”. Each “pricking”, 
“stinging” or “burning” sensation is defined as 
a painful sensation, which should always be 
evaluated by giving a value greater than “0”. 
“10” corresponds to the individual maximum 
pain imaginable. 
The change from baseline (Visit 2 [Day 1]) to 
Visit 8 (Week 12) will be analyzed. 
To assess the efficacy of a 
cumulative dose of 400 mg 
intravenous neridronic acid 
versus placebo on the pressure 
pain threshold (PPT). 
Change from baseline to 
Week 12 in the PPT ratio for the 
thenar muscle/abductor hallucis 
muscle. 
Pressure pain threshold: using a pressure 
algometer (contact area 1 cm2), the threshold 
for pressure-induced pain is measured on the 
thenar muscle/abductor hallucis muscle in 
3 series of slowly increasing stimulus 
intensities (at a rate of about 50 kPa/s). The 
threshold is then determined as the arithmetic 
mean of the 3 series (in kPa).  
The ratio of the thresholds of the affected limb 
versus the unaffected limb will be calculated. 
The change from baseline (Visit 2 [Day 1]) to 
Visit 8 (Week 12) will be analyzed. 
To assess the efficacy of a 
cumulative dose of 400 mg 
intravenous neridronic acid 
versus placebo on edema of the 
hand or foot. 
Change from baseline to 
Week 12 in the ratio of the 
figure of eight measurements of 
the affected limb versus the 
unaffected limb. 
In subjects with the CRPS sign of edema on 
the CRPS Severity Score at baseline, 
circumference of the hand or foot will be 
measured by the investigator with 
measurement tape using the figure-of-eight 
method at both the affected limb and the 
contralateral unaffected limb. Each 
measurement will be performed 3 times. The 
average of the 3 measurements will be used 
for further analysis. 
The ratio of the averages of the affected limb 
versus the unaffected limb will be calculated. 
The change from baseline (Visit 2 [Day 1]) to 
Visit 8 (Week 12) will be analyzed.

Trial treatments 
1.4.1 
Investigational medicinal products 
The IMPs used in this trial are neridronic acid and matching placebo. 
Investigational medicinal product is supplied in glass vials, each containing 108 mg sodium 
neridronate hemi hydrate (equivalent to 100 mg neridronic acid) or matching placebo in a total 
volume of 8 mL. 
For subjects with no or mild renal impairment, the full contents of a single vial (8 mL) will be 
diluted in 500 mL normal saline and administered by slow intravenous infusion (240 minutes 
[maximum 260 minutes]) at Visit 2, Visit 3, Visit 4, and Visit 5, resulting in a total dose of 400 mg 
neridronic acid or matching placebo. 
For subjects with no or mild renal impairment included in Treatment Period B, the full contents of a 
single vial (8 mL) will be diluted in 500 mL normal saline and administered by slow intravenous 
infusion (240 minutes [maximum 260 minutes]) at Visit 11, Visit 12, Visit 13, and Visit 14, 
resulting in a total dose of 400 mg neridronic acid. 
All infusions must be performed at the trial site under the supervision of medical staff. 
For subjects with moderate renal impairment, the following dose adjustments will be applicable: 
CKD-EPI Stage 3a (eGFR 45 mL/min/1.73 m2 to <60 mL/min/1.73 m2) 
6 mL of solution from a single vial (corresponding to neridronic acid 75 mg) will be diluted in 
500 mL normal saline and administered by slow intravenous infusion (240 minutes [maximum 
260 minutes]) at each treatment visit, resulting in a total dose of 300 mg neridronic acid or matching 
placebo. 
CKD-EPI Stage 3b (eGFR 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 to <45 mL/min/1.73 m2) 
5 mL of solution from a single vial (corresponding to neridronic acid 62.5 mg) will be diluted in 
500 mL normal saline and administered by slow intravenous infusion (240 minutes [maximum 
260 minutes]) at each treatment visit, resulting in a total dose of 250 mg neridronic acid or matching 
placebo. 
For additional requirements related to the IMP infusion, please refer to Section 10.2 of the trial 
protocol.

1.4.2 
Prior/concomitant medications or therapies 
Subjects participating in the trial must be on stable therapy prescribed for CRPS, including any 
multidisciplinary treatment program (e.g., consisting of physical therapy, occupational therapy, 
cognitive behavioral therapy, and/or graded motor imagery, including mirror feedback). Initiation of 
a new interdisciplinary treatment program during the trial is prohibited. Other allowed therapies, 
such as spinal cord stimulation, may be continued during the trial if they are stable for at least 
1 month prior to the start of treatment. 
Subjects may continue treatment with allowed concomitant medications, including any stable 
analgesic regimens consisting of opioids and other analgesics, if they are on a stable, well-defined 
treatment regimen for at least 1 month before allocation to IMP and are anticipated to be able to 
maintain the treatment regimen up to and including Visit 8 at a minimum in the opinion of the 
investigator. A prescribed regimen including an as needed dosing schedule is permitted. A subject 
who does not take prescription analgesics but does take over-the-counter analgesics is permitted to 
participate if considered stable and anticipated to be able to continue taking only over-the-counter 
and non-prescription analgesics up to and including Visit 8 at a minimum. Over-the-counter 
analgesics must remain stable throughout the trial, up to and including Visit 8 at a minimum. After 
Visit 10, investigators should assess the further need of concomitant treatment for CRPS, in 
particular opioids, and evaluate if the dose or frequency of these treatments can be decreased, or if 
treatment can be stopped completely. Any resulting changes must be documented in the electronic 
case report form (eCRF). Subjects receiving treatment in Treatment Period B should remain on 
stable analgesic treatment (including over-the counter analgesics) between Visit 11 and Visit 16. 
In the event a subject experiences a severe pain flare related to CRPS, trauma, or other reason, a 
course of short-acting analgesics, including opioids, may be prescribed for up to 2 weeks. The 
concomitant medication must be documented in the eCRF and the sponsor or sponsor’s 
representative (i.e., medical monitor) must be notified. 
To alleviate the expected flu-like symptoms (acute phase reaction) potentially associated with the 
first intravenous administration of bisphosphonates, all subjects in both treatment groups must 
receive oral acetaminophen (paracetamol) starting from approximately 1 hour prior to the first 
infusion of IMP and then approximately every 6 hours for the 72-hour period after the first infusion 
in Treatment Period A and Treatment Period B. Commercially available doses of acetaminophen 
(paracetamol) can be used as available in the country where the trial is performed. However, the 
total dose of acetaminophen, including any other medications that contain acetaminophen, must not 
exceed the maximum allowed dose according to the local product information, and not more than 
4 g/day, due to acetaminophen’s known risks for hepatic toxicity. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory 
drugs should not be used to alleviate the symptoms of the acute phase reaction due to their potential 
to cause acute changes in renal function, which may confound renal safety assessments. 
All subjects will be provided with supplemental calcium and vitamin D, starting from Visit 1 and 
continuing through to the end of the trial. Calcium and vitamin D supplementation are considered 
standard of care for patients treated with bisphosphonates and other drugs that inhibit bone 
turnover. An appropriate daily supplement should be provided to subjects (recommended doses are 
500 mg/day to 1000 mg/day calcium and approximately 1000 IU/day vitamin D as locally 
authorized); if a subject is currently taking calcium and vitamin D supplements, these may be 
continued without need for additional supplementation, provided levels of supplementation are

Protocol KF7013-04 including Amendment 01

similar to those recommended above. A combination product of calcium and vitamin D may be 
used. Subjects with vitamin D below 30 ng/mL (75 nmol/L) should receive higher doses of 
vitamin D during the Enrollment Period (e.g., 10 000 IU/day for 10 days), to meet the protocol-
required vitamin D levels prior to starting treatment at Visit 2 and prior to starting treatment at 
Visit 11. As repletion of vitamin D to these levels can be difficult, repeated laboratory testing for 
vitamin D is permitted during the Enrollment Period (up to a maximum of 4 times in 60 days) and 
between Visit 10 and Visit 11 (up to a maximum of 2 times). High doses of vitamin D should not be 
continued after the subject reaches vitamin D targets (supplementation should continue at the 
recommended daily dose of approximately 1000 IU/day). 
With regard to the calcium and vitamin D supplements, the investigator should promote compliance 
by instructing the subject to take the supplements as prescribed and by stating that compliance is 
necessary for the subject’s safety. Subjects should be instructed to contact the investigator if they 
are unable for any reason to take the supplements as prescribed. When used as daily supplements in 
this trial, calcium and vitamin D are not to be considered as an IMP or a medical treatment for an 
adverse event. 
1.4.2.1 
Forbidden concomitant medications 
The following medications are forbidden for the duration of the trial or as specified: 
• 
Any experimental or investigational treatment or therapy. 
• 
High-dose opioid analgesics (greater than 200 mg oral morphine equivalent daily dose) or 
combinations of opioids and benzodiazepines or any other treatment regimens that may 
have potential for significant opioid/sedatives side effects and that may be considered 
unstable or unsafe (according to the judgment of the investigator). 
• 
Concomitant use of drugs with the potential to cause hypocalcemia (e.g., aminoglycosides). 
Subjects on a stable dose of loop diuretics may be allocated to IMP as long as no dosage 
increases in the diuretic medication are anticipated and calcium levels are in the reference 
range. 
• 
Oral, intravenous, or intramuscular bisphosphonates, calcitonin, denosumab, anti-
angiogenic drugs or other bone-active drugs (e.g., teriparatide). 
• 
Drugs with risk for torsades de pointes as specified: 
− 
Drugs with a known risk of torsades de pointes within 7 days prior to allocation and 
throughout the trial. 
− 
With the following exceptions: selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitor antidepressants 
(e.g., citalopram, escitalopram), if QT interval values met entry criteria, subjects were 
on a stable dose for at least 1 month prior to Visit 1, and doses are expected to stay 
stable throughout the trial. 
• 
Concomitant administration of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or any other agents 
with the potential to interfere with the assessment of potential changes in renal function 
(e.g., angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors) until 2 weeks after the last IMP 
administration per treatment period, unless subjects are receiving a stable dose for at least 
1 month prior to Visit 1. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs should not be used to 
alleviate the symptoms of the acute phase reaction.

• 
Use of nerve blocks, ketamine infusions, intravenous immunoglobulin, acupuncture, 
electromagnetic field treatment, initiation/implementation of radiofrequency ablation or 
other sympathectomy procedures, or peripheral nerve stimulation, within 6 weeks prior to 
Visit 1 and for the entire duration of the trial.

Use of systemic steroids starting 2 weeks prior to Visit 1 and for the entire duration of the 
trial. 
1.5 
Statistical analyses 
The primary analysis will be performed once all subjects have completed Visit 11 (Week 26), 
including database lock and unblinding. The results from this 26-week analysis will be reported in 
an interim integrated clinical trial report. 
The final analysis of this trial, including Treatment Period B and Follow-up Period 2, will be 
performed after the last subject has completed the trial and the database has been locked. 
1.5.1 
Sample size rationale 
The sample size is based on a statistical test of the superiority of 400 mg neridronic acid versus 
placebo in the primary endpoint. The null hypothesis of no effect, H0: 0 ≤ µ400 - µ0, is tested against 
the alternative hypothesis H1: µ400 - µ0<0. (Note: A pain reduction will be analyzed as a negative 
change from baseline. An effective treatment will lead to reduced pain and, hence, to a negative 
mean change from baseline, µ<0). 
For a difference in the means of µ400 - µ0 = -1.0 points on the NRS, assuming a standard deviation 
of 2.0 points on the NRS and a 1-sided significance level of 2.5% (α = 0.025), 86 subjects per arm 
will be required to provide at least 90% power (1-β = 0.9) to reject the null hypothesis. To 
compensate for a slight decrease in power due to an optional futility interim analysis, a total of 
180 subjects (90 subjects per arm) are planned to be allocated to treatment. 
1.5.2 
Subject populations 
Enrolled Set: 
The Enrolled Set includes all subjects who signed the informed 
consent form. 
Allocated Set: 
The Allocated Set includes all subjects who are allocated to treatment. 
Safety Set: 
All subjects with at least 1 IMP administration, including any partial 
infusion. 
Full Analysis Set: 
All subjects allocated with at least 1 IMP administration, including any 
partial infusion. 
Pharmacodynamic Set: 
All treated subjects with at least 1 non-missing value for at least 1 of 
the bone turnover markers. 
 
1.5.3 
Statistical methods and analysis 
The analysis of primary and secondary efficacy endpoints is described in the subsections below. All 
other efficacy endpoints will be descriptively summarized in the Full Analysis Set. Confirmatory 
testing will be performed for the primary endpoint and for selected secondary endpoints. Further

analyses may be done, including statistical hypothesis tests, but all analyses will be exploratory in 
nature and will not provide confirmatory evidence. 
Subject disposition as well as demographic and baseline data and other subject characteristics, e.g., 
medical history and prior and concomitant medications, will be descriptively summarized for the 
Full Analysis Set and the Safety Set. 
Adverse events, laboratory values, ECG, vital signs, and further safety parameters will be 
summarized descriptively for the Safety Set. All laboratory parameters will be collected both in SI 
units and US conventional units. All parameters will be reported in SI units and, in addition, 
selected laboratory parameters will be reported also in US conventional units (dual reporting). 
Bone turnover marker values will be descriptively summarized by parameter for the 
Pharmacodynamic Set. 
Health economics and work productivity data will be summarized descriptively for the Full 
Analysis Set. 
Analysis of sIL-2R concentrations will be summarized descriptively for the Safety Set. 
All efficacy and safety data evaluated during Treatment Period B and Follow-up Period 2 will be 
analyzed descriptively separately for subjects who are treated in Treatment Period B and subjects 
who are not treated. For subjects treated in Treatment Period B, analyses will be performed for 
subjects initially treated with placebo and subjects initially treated with neridronic acid. 
1.5.3.1 
Primary endpoint 
See Section 1.2 for the definition of the primary endpoint. 
For the primary objective of the trial, the primary estimand is the difference in means of the primary 
efficacy endpoint of 400 mg intravenous neridronic acid compared to placebo for all allocated and 
treated subjects. This treatment policy or de facto estimand measures the effect of neridronic acid 
regardless of adherence to treatment or protocol. 
The primary estimand will be estimated by the analysis of the primary efficacy endpoint for the Full 
Analysis Set. The primary analysis will fit a mixed model for repeated measures (MMRM) to the 
change from baseline in the average pain intensity scores from Week 1 to Week 12 recorded once 
daily in the electronic diary, including the covariate baseline pain intensity score, and the factors 
geographic region, week, treatment, and treatment-by-week interaction as fixed effects, and an 
unstructured covariance matrix to model the covariance structure of the repeated measurements. 
The primary efficacy analysis will be performed using the contrast, i.e., the mixed model Wald test, 
of neridronic acid 400 mg versus placebo at Week 12 of the treatment, week and treatment-by-week 
interaction term of the mixed effects model described above. Model-based parameter estimates, 
standard errors, 95% confidence intervals, and p-values will be tabulated. This analysis will be 
performed using only the observed values without imputation of missing values. 
Additional sensitivity analyses will be performed to assess the robustness of primary analysis 
results. Sensitivity analyses will include the imputation of missing pain intensity scores using 
different pattern mixture models (PMMs). 
A descriptive summary of the weekly averages and the changes from baseline will be generated by 
treatment group. Graphical displays will be used if appropriate.

1.5.3.2 
Secondary efficacy endpoints 
All secondary efficacy endpoints will be analyzed for the Full Analysis Set. 
Average pain intensity 
The change from baseline in the average pain intensity, recorded on the tablet computer, will be 
analyzed with an MMRM, including the covariate baseline pain intensity score, and the factors 
geographic region, week, treatment, and treatment-by-week interaction as fixed effects, and subject 
as random effect. An unstructured covariance matrix will be used to model the covariance structure. 
The analysis will be performed using the contrast, i.e., the mixed model Wald test, of 400 mg 
neridronic acid versus placebo at Week 26 of the treatment, week and treatment-by-week 
interaction term of the mixed effects model described above. Model-based parameter estimates, 
standard errors, 95% confidence intervals, and p-values will be tabulated. This analysis will be 
performed using the observed values without imputation of missing values. 
Pain response to treatment 
Pain response to treatment, defined as an at least 30% decrease from baseline in average pain 
intensity, recorded on the tablet computer, will be derived. If a subject shows a worsening or the 
pain intensity score for the respective visit is missing then the subject will be considered a pain non-
responder for the respective visit. A logistic regression model at Week 12 and Week 26 will be 
fitted to the data, including the covariate baseline pain intensity score, and the factors geographic 
region, and treatment as fixed effects. Model-based parameter estimates, standard errors, 95% 
confidence intervals, and p-values for the odds ratio at Week 12 and Week 26 between 400 mg 
neridronic acid and placebo will be tabulated. 
The analysis of pain response to treatment will include a cumulative responder analysis at Week 12, 
Week 26, and Week 52, where responder rates will be calculated for different percentage thresholds 
for decrease from baseline in average pain intensity. 
Dynamic mechanical allodynia 
The change from baseline in the DMA will be analyzed using a similar model as for average pain 
intensity. Only subjects with allodynia at baseline, i.e., a DMA score greater than 0 on the 0 to 10 
NRS, will be included in the analysis. 
Pressure pain threshold 
The change from baseline in the ratio of the PPT in the affected limb to the PPT in the unaffected 
limb for the thenar muscle/abductor hallucis muscle will be analyzed using a similar model as for 
average pain intensity. Only subjects with deep somatic pain (PPT ≤300 kPa) in the affected limb at 
baseline will be included in the analysis. 
Edema 
The change from baseline in edema will be analyzed using a similar model as for average pain 
intensity. Only subjects with presence of the CRPS sign “asymmetric edema” at baseline will be 
included in the analysis.

1.5.3.3 
Missing data handling 
Diligent attempts will be made to limit the amount of missing data in the primary efficacy endpoint. 
Efforts will be made to follow-up subjects who discontinue treatment and to collect the primary 
efficacy endpoint for the statistical analysis. 
The primary analysis using the MMRM is based on the missing-at-random (MAR) assumption. For 
the treatment policy or de facto estimand, the MAR assumption is justified for neridronic acid 
owing to the long half-life in bone and the anticipated persistent effect over the 12-week trial 
period. It can be assumed that the effect of neridronic acid continues after the treatment period is 
completed, and it also persists after the treatment period regardless of trial completion or early 
discontinuation. Therefore, the response of discontinued subjects will not change if the subjects 
continue to receive the stable therapy that they receive during the 12-week trial period up to Visit 8. 
If subjects change their treatment after discontinuation from the trial, it is nevertheless reasonable to 
assume that their response is not significantly altered as there are currently no established effective 
treatments. Hence, the MAR assumption is considered a plausible missingness mechanism for the 
primary estimand in the case of neridronic acid. 
The MAR assumption cannot be verified based on data observed in the trial. Deviations from MAR 
cannot be excluded and several plausible missing-not-at-random (MNAR) assumptions will be 
investigated to assess their impact. MNAR assumptions will be defined via PMMs specifying the 
distribution of missing values, e.g., for subjects discontinuing before the end of the trial. Plausible 
PMMs for the primary estimand are placebo multiple imputation (PMI) and the delta shift method.  
Placebo multiple imputation is a reference-based approach based on the copy reference method. It 
models the means of missing values in the active arm based on the means observed in the placebo 
arm (reference arm). The method assumes that the response of discontinued subjects in the active 
arm gradually approaches the response in the placebo arm and eventually no effect of neridronic 
acid persists after a subject discontinues. For neridronic acid this appears conservative in light of the 
anticipated persistent effect. 
The delta shift method models the means of missing values in the active arm by adding a pre-
specified value Δ to the observed means in the active arm. The method includes a tipping point 
analysis, which is defined as the delta that must be added in order to overturn conclusions from the 
primary analysis from statistically significant to statistically insignificant. The method assumes that 
discontinued subjects in the active arm have higher pain compared to subjects who stay in the trial. 
Again this seems conservative if persistence of effect can be assumed for neridronic acid. 
Overall, the 2 PMMs can be considered more conservative than MAR because they model missing 
pain intensity scores in the active arm using higher mean values than the means actually observed, 
whereas the placebo arm is not changed. In this way, neridronic acid is effectively penalized under 
these assumptions.  
In summary, for neridronic acid the MAR assumption seems to be the most plausible missingness 
assumption for analyses estimating the primary estimand. It will be supplemented by sensitivity 
analyses based on MNAR assumptions representing plausible and reasonably conservative 
deviations from MAR.

1.5.3.4 
Confirmatory testing strategy for secondary endpoints 
A confirmatory testing procedure will be used for testing of the superiority of neridronic acid 
400 mg versus placebo with respect to the primary and selected secondary efficacy endpoints 
(change from baseline to Week 26 in the average pain intensity, change from baseline to Week 12 
in the pain intensity level of DMA, change from baseline to Week 12 in the PPT ratio, and change 
from baseline to Week 12 in the ratio of figure of eight measurements). 
First, the primary endpoint will be tested at a one-sided level α = 2.5%. If the first test is statistically 
significant, the 4 secondary endpoints will be tested in a second stage. 
To control for the family-wise type I error rate at the one-sided 2.5% level, a hybrid Hochberg-
Hommel step-up procedure (hybrid-0 procedure in Gou et al. 2014) will be applied. The testing 
procedure uses the ordered p-values p(1) ≥ p(2) ≥ p(3) ≥ p(4). At first, if the largest p-value p(1) ≤ α, 
then all 4 hypotheses are rejected. Otherwise the associated null hypothesis H(1) is accepted and 
testing proceeds to the next step. In general, at Step i = 2,..4, if  p(i) ≤ ciα, then any hypothesis with 
p-value ≤ diα will be rejected and testing stops; otherwise the null hypothesis H(i) and testing 
continues at the next step. At Step 4, the null hypothesis H(4) is rejected if p(4) ≤ α/4; otherwise H(4) 
is accepted. The constants used in the testing procedure are defined by ci = (i+1)/(2i) and di = 1/i 
and are given in the table below.

This semiparametric multiple testing procedure controls the family-wise error rate in the strong 
sense if the test statistics follow a multivariate normal distribution with non-negative correlation 
coefficients (Gou et al. 2014) which can be assumed for the investigated 4 efficacy endpoints. 
1.5.3.5 
Subgroup analyses 
Subgroup analyses may be done if appropriate and will be specified in the statistical analysis plan. 
1.5.3.6 
Pooling of sites 
Individual sites will be pooled by geographic region. 
1.5.3.7 
Interim analysis 
An interim analysis is planned after a combined total of approximately 80 subjects in the two 
Phase III trials, KF7013-02 and KF7013-04, have completed Week 12 of treatment and the required 
data is available in the databases. The interim analysis is for futility only and will be non-binding. 
The futility criterion will be based on the unblinded comparison of the primary endpoint and will be 
calculated using identical methods as for the final analysis. If the observed difference in the means 
of µ400 - µ0 is ≥ -0.3 points on the NRS, the null hypothesis will not be rejected and the 
recommendation will be to stop both trials. The interim analysis will be performed by an 
independent statistical analysis unit not otherwise involved in the conduct of the trial and the result 
will only state the recommendation to stop or continue the Phase III program. No unblinded 
information will be disseminated to the trial teams. Pending recruitment rates of both trials, it may

be decided to forgo the interim analysis or conduct it a different point in time. As the interim 
analysis will be for futility only, no inflation of the type I error will occur.

a) The Enrollment Period consists of an Enrollment Visit (Visit 1) prior to Day -7 and a baseline pain assessment phase from Day -7 to Day -1 during which subjects will report 
pain intensity ratings in the electronic diary. These pain intensity ratings will be used to calculate the baseline pain intensity score. Additional visits are allowed during the 
Enrollment Period to confirm normal laboratory values or ensure protocol targets for vitamin D (for details of repeat testing, see Section 1.3.2). If the Enrollment Period exceeds 
30 days, determination of hematology and clinical chemistry parameters should be repeated to confirm there is no major change in the subject’s overall health status prior to 
allocation. 
aa) Compliance assessment for electronic diary not required at Visit 1. 
b) Infusion visits should be separated by 3-day intervals to the extent possible (i.e., Day 1, Day 4, Day 7, and Day 10). Infusion visits on consecutive days are not allowed. The 
full dosing period must not exceed 21 days from the first infusion (Visit 2). To facilitate scheduling, the interval between infusion visits may be adapted, provided the 21-day time 
period is not exceeded and discontinuation criteria can be assessed. In case of suspension of treatment due to a suspected safety concern or a visit scheduling difficulty, 
resumption of treatment is allowed upon resolution of findings, with sponsor agreement. In case of interruption or suspension of treatment, the first follow-up visit (Visit 6)

Confidential 
Protocol KF7013-04 including Amendment 01 
Page 23 of 168

should be scheduled at 4 days (±2 days) after the last infusion visit. All subsequent visits must remain as originally scheduled relative to Visit 2 (e.g., Visit 7 occurs at 42 days 
[6 weeks] ±3 days after Visit 2). No more than 4 infusions are allowed in Treatment Period A; any partial infusion (exceeding 20 mL) must be counted as 1 infusion. 
bb) Training on electronic diary as, from Week 12, the electronic diary will ask for weekly assessments of pain intensity. 
c) Visit 8 must not occur prior to Day 85 in order for the subjects to have complete electronic diary data through Week 12 for the calculation of the primary endpoint. 
d) The specific informed consent form for pharmacogenetic and omics sampling should preferably be signed at Visit 1, but has to be signed at the latest at Visit 2 before the 
sample is taken. 
e) Demographic data will include the date of signing the informed consent form, sex, race/ethnicity, age, height, and body mass index. 
f) History of CRPS includes the date, location, and type of precipitating event (including any information on whether there was a major nerve injury); date of onset of symptoms; 
date of prior CRPS diagnosis; specific location of signs and symptoms where the diagnostic criteria were applied, and information on any other/prior occurrence of CRPS or other 
body regions considered to be affected by CRPS. 
g) Dental history will include: date of last dental visit; dental extractions and other invasive dental surgery in the past 3 months prior to the Enrollment Visit; current evidence of 
dental or periodontal disease, gum injury due to dentures, or other dental history that may pre-dispose to risk of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw. 
h) After Visit 1, record any changes from the prior assessment. 
i) At Visit 2 to Visit 5, vital signs will be taken prior to infusion and after infusion. 
j) All ECGs will be recorded in triplicate. For Visit 2 to Visit 5, triplicate ECGs will be recorded twice: at least 15 minutes prior to the infusion and at least 15 minutes after the 
infusion. 
k) Dose and dosing frequency data must be recorded. 
l) Subjects should be queried for any events occurring since the prior visit; any events noted at Visit 1 should be documented as medical history or as part of physical examination 
results. 
m) For women of child-bearing potential, a negative dipstick urine pregnancy test result must be obtained prior to each infusion. Additional pregnancy tests to those specified 
may be performed if required by local law or regulations. 
n) Signs and symptoms of CRPS will be assessed at Visit 1 to confirm the diagnosis of CRPS according to the Budapest clinical criteria. Budapest criteria for ongoing, 
disproportionate pain and a lack of other diagnosis that better explains the signs and symptoms must also be confirmed at Visit 1. Assessments of signs and symptoms of CRPS at 
all subsequent visits will use symptom recall for the past 48 hours for the determination of the CRPS Severity Score. 
o) Vitamin D and calcium supplements will be dispensed to subjects for use during the trial; subjects who are receiving appropriate doses of these supplements may continue 
without requirement for additional supplementation. 
p) Compliance with inclusion and exclusion criteria must be confirmed before allocation to IMP. At Visit 2, the baseline average pain intensity score must be confirmed prior to 
allocation by checking the electronic diary, which will provide an automatic calculation. A baseline average pain intensity score of at least 4 on the 11-point NRS is required. A 
subject who has not met average baseline pain intensity requirements (at least 4 average pain intensity ratings) due to lack of compliance with the electronic diary may be

Protocol KF7013-04 including Amendment 01 
Page 24 of 168

rescheduled for Visit 2 (1 time only), with appropriate re-training to ensure compliance with use of the electronic diary. Subjects who do not meet eligibility criteria due to an 
inadequate baseline average pain intensity score (less than 4 on the NRS) will be excluded from the trial. 
q) The electronic diary is to be returned at Visit 17 or at the Early Termination Visit in the case of early discontinuation from the trial. 
r) Allocation must be performed using the interactive response technology system. 
s) Subjects must be assessed prior to each infusion and IMP should be suspended if a suspension criterion is met. This includes assessment for signs and symptoms of ocular 
inflammation, signs of proteinuria, and signs of dehydration. Subjects must be well hydrated prior to the start of infusions. 
t) All baseline measurements (including blood sampling for hematology, clinical chemistry, urinalysis; ECG; vital signs; physical examination) must be completed before the start 
of the first infusion of IMP. Investigational medicinal product must be diluted in 500 mL saline and administered by slow intravenous infusion (the infusion time must be at least 
240 minutes [up to a maximum of 260 minutes]). 
u) At US sites only. 
v) Blood samples for bone turnover markers (C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen, bone alkaline phosphatase, and procollagen type I amino-terminal propeptide) should be 
obtained in the morning after an overnight fast. 
w) The blood sample for pharmacogenetic and omics testing will be collected in consenting subjects. 
x) Worst and average pain intensity ratings will be based on a 24-hour recall period. 
y) Only the pain intensity question (question number 29, GLOBAL07) of the PROMIS-29 profile should be recorded. 
z) Edema will only be measured in subjects reporting asymmetric edema as part of the assessment of the signs and symptoms of CRPS at baseline (Visit 2). The AROM will only 
be measured in subjects reporting decreased AROM as part of the assessment of the signs and symptoms of CRPS at baseline (Visit 2).

If Visit 11 is not performed on Day 183, Visit 12 to Visit 15 should proceed in accordance with the originally scheduled time windows relative to Visit 11. 
a) Visit 11 must not occur prior to Day 183, to ensure a full 6 months of follow-up for all subjects. 
b) Infusion visits should be separated by 3-day intervals to the extent possible (i.e., Day 183, Day 186, Day 189, and Day 192). Infusion visits on consecutive days are not 
allowed. The full dosing period must not exceed 21 days from the first infusion of Treatment Period B (Visit 11). To facilitate scheduling, the interval between infusion visits 
may be adapted, provided the 21 day time period is not exceeded and discontinuation criteria can be assessed. In case of suspension of treatment due to a suspected safety concern 
or a visit scheduling difficulty, resumption of treatment is allowed upon resolution of findings, with sponsor agreement. In case of interruption or suspension of treatment, the first 
follow-up visit (Visit 15) should be scheduled at 4 days (±2 days) after the last infusion visit of Treatment Period B. All subsequent visits must remain as originally scheduled 
relative to Visit 11. No more than 4 infusions are allowed in Treatment Period B; any partial infusion (exceeding 20 mL) must be counted as 1 infusion. 
c) Visit 17 must not occur prior to Day 365, to ensure that the subjects are followed up for a full 12 months. 
d) After Visit 1, record any changes from the prior assessment. 
e) At Visit 11 to Visit 14, vital signs will be taken prior to infusion and after infusion. 
f) All ECGs will be recorded in triplicate. For Visit 11 to Visit 14, triplicate ECGs will be recorded twice: at least 15 minutes prior to the infusion and at least 15 minutes after the 
infusion.

regulatory requirements. 
4.2 
Subject information and informed consent 
Before any trial-related procedure will be performed, freely given informed consent must be 
obtained. 
The informed consent discussion, the information sheet (if used) and the informed consent form 
provided to subjects must adhere to GCP and applicable regulatory requirements. The informed 
consent discussion with the subject must be performed by the principal investigator or an 
appropriately trained delegate. The information sheet and informed consent form agreed with the 
sponsor must be used. Prior to use, these documents must be approved by the relevant IECs or 
IRBs. 
Subjects must be informed as soon as possible if new information becomes available that may be 
relevant to their willingness to continue participation in the trial. The communication of this 
information must be documented. 
Collection of blood samples for storage and pharmacogenetic and omics (a generic term referring to 
analysis techniques like pharmacogenetics, genomics, epigenetics, transcriptomics, proteomics, 
metabolomics) assessment is optional for trial subjects. 
A separate informed consent for the collection of blood samples for pharmacogenetic and omics 
testing will be obtained in addition to the standard informed consent for the clinical trial. Failure to 
provide this additional consent will not affect the subject’s ability to participate in the clinical trial. 
A copy of the signed and dated informed consent form will be given to the subject and the original 
will be filed in the investigator’s site file. 
Subjects who give consent for pharmacogenetic and omics testing may reconsider and decide to 
withdraw their consent. Subjects will be informed during informed consent that withdrawal of 
consent requires them to contact the investigator. The investigator will then notify the sponsor in 
writing of the subject’s decision, and the sponsor will instruct the bio-banking facility to destroy the 
stored sample(s) of the subject. The destruction of the subject’s sample(s) will be documented by 
the sponsor and in the bio-banking facility records. All pharmacogenetic and omics data already 
evaluated prior to the withdrawal of consent will continue to be reported in completed or ongoing 
pharmacogenetic and omics analyses, but will be excluded from all subsequent analyses. 
The subjects must be informed that any compound-related discoveries resulting from the 
pharmacogenetic and omics testing and analyses are the property of the sponsor. They may be used 
by the sponsor for commercial purposes.

4.3 
Informing the subject’s healthcare provider 
In countries where applicable, and only if the subject agrees in writing in the informed consent form 
and is treated by a healthcare provider, e.g., general practitioner, the subject’s healthcare provider 
should be informed about the subject’s participation in the trial at trial enrollment. The healthcare 
provider should be informed about the trial code, the principal investigator’s name, and a contact 
(telephone) number at the trial site.  
Any communication with the healthcare provider must be documented in the subject’s medical 
records or the investigator’s site file.

INVESTIGATORS AND TRIAL ADMINISTRATIVE STRUCTURE 
5.1 
Investigators and trial site personnel 
5.1.1 
Investigators 
There must be an investigator at each trial site. 
If the trial is conducted by a team of individuals at the trial site, the investigator leading and 
responsible for the team is called the principal investigator. 
All persons assigned responsibility as principal investigator must sign a declaration of their 
responsibilities and their agreement to this protocol before any trial-related procedure is performed. 
Curriculum vitae and/or other relevant documents confirming the current qualification of the 
investigators must be provided to the sponsor. This should include any previous training in the 
principles of GCP, experience obtained from work with clinical trials, and experience with subject 
care. 
Documentation of all involved investigators must be maintained according to GCP and applicable 
regulatory requirements. 
In different countries, there may be country-specific terminology used for the investigator role. 
An international coordinating investigator will be defined who is responsible for the coordination of 
principal investigators at multiple trial sites in multiple countries. 
Documentation of all responsibilities assigned to the country-specific coordinating 
investigators/international coordinating investigator must be maintained according to GCP and 
applicable regulatory requirements. 
5.1.2 
Trial site personnel assigned trial-related duties 
The principal investigator may define appropriately qualified personnel at a trial site to perform 
significant trial-related procedures and/or to make trial-related decisions under his/her supervision. 
In this case, the principal investigator must maintain a signed list of the persons to whom they 
delegate significant trial-related duties/responsibilities; the delegated trial-related 
duties/responsibilities must be specified in the list. 
When personnel or responsibility changes are made, the principal investigator must ensure that the 
relevant documentation is updated before any trial-related activities are performed.

INTRODUCTION AND TRIAL BACKGROUND 
6.1 
Introduction 
Complex regional pain syndrome is a severe and frequently chronic disabling condition that can 
develop after a minor injury, such as a fracture or sprain, usually in a distal extremity (hand, wrist, 
ankle, and foot). Complex regional pain syndrome is characterized by disproportionate pain, 
relative to the inciting event, and signs and symptoms related to sensory, vasomotor and sudomotor 
abnormalities, trophic changes (abnormal skin, hair, and nails), and impaired motor function in the 
affected limb (Harden et al. 2010a). There are currently no Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 
approved pharmacological treatments for CRPS, and patients are underserved due to a poor 
understanding of the pathophysiological processes and lack of evidence for effective treatments 
(Harden et al. 2013; Goebel 2013; Bruehl 2015).  
Randomized placebo-controlled trials of bisphosphonates in patients with CRPS suggest that these 
agents are efficacious for treatment of pain and other symptoms associated with this syndrome 
(Brunner et al. 2009; Cossins et al. 2013; O’Connell et al. 2013; Varenna et al. 2013; Wertli et al. 

Grünenthal 
Confidential 
Protocol KF7013-04 including Amendment 01 
Page 42 of 168 
DMS version 2.0

2014). Since bisphosphonates act to suppress osteoclastic bone resorption, it is likely that bone 
pathology plays a role in the evolution and maintenance of CRPS Type I (CRPS-I; Gatti et al. 
2016), although other mechanisms may be involved (Varenna et al. 2013). Evidence of osteopenia 
and increased uptake of radiolabeled bisphosphonate tracer (observed during bone scintigraphy) in 
the affected limb(s) of patients with CRPS provides support for this hypothesis. Therefore, the 
present trial with a total dose of neridronic acid 400 mg is designed to obtain efficacy and safety 
information to support the potential broader use of neridronic acid to address a major unmet 
medical need in patients with CRPS. 
6.2 
Background to the IMP 
Neridronic acid is an alkyl-aminobisphosphonate with a chemical structure and potency similar to 
that of pamidronate (Gatti et al. 2013). Neridronic acid has been studied in subjects with Paget’s 
disease of bone, osteogenesis imperfecta, hypercalcemia, and osteoporosis and has been marketed 
in Italy under the tradename NERIXIA® for treatment of osteogenesis imperfecta since 2002 and 
for Paget’s disease since 2006. In 2014, NERIXIA received market authorization for treatment of 
CRPS in Italy. 
Neridronic acid is currently being investigated for the treatment of CRPS. 
6.3 
Relevant non-clinical and clinical data 
For a detailed summary of relevant non-clinical and clinical experience, see the current edition of 
the neridronic acid investigator’s brochure. 
In a pilot trial of neridronic acid, 9 subjects with CRPS-I were randomized to 2, 3, or 4 infusions of 
100 mg intravenous neridronic acid every 4 days in the first phase of the trial (Varenna et al. 2004). 
The cumulative intravenous doses of 200 mg and 300 mg were considered suboptimally effective. 
The 4 x 100 mg dose of neridronic acid was identified as the only regimen providing clinical 
improvement equivalent to 300 mg/day intravenous clodronate for 10 days (i.e., a total dose of 
3000 mg) investigated in CRPS in an earlier trial (Varenna et al. 2000). Equivalence of the 400 mg 
cumulative dose of neridronate, based on indirect equivalence to 3000 mg clodronate, was 
confirmed in a second phase of the pilot trial with 18 patients. 
In a multi-national, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in patients with CRPS-I 
(KF7013 01; NCT02402530) total doses of 125 mg and 250 mg neridronic acid administered as 
4 intravenous infusions over a period of 10 days were well tolerated but did not differentiate 
significantly from placebo on the primary efficacy parameter, confirming that a higher dose would 
be required for the effective treatment of CRPS. 
In a multi-site, placebo-controlled trial of intravenous neridronic acid in 82 subjects with CRPS-I 
receiving 400 mg of neridronic acid, administered as four 2-hour infusions of 100 mg on Day 1, 
Day 4, Day 7, and Day 10, a statistically significantly greater percentage of subjects experienced at 
least 50% decrease in pain intensity at 40 days after the first infusion compared with placebo 
(73.2% for neridronic acid versus 32.5% for placebo [treatment difference: 40.7%; 95% confidence 
interval: 18.7%, 59.5%]; p = 0.0003). Secondary endpoints, including change from baseline in pain 
intensity, pain evoked by passive motion, edema, AROM, hyperalgesia, and allodynia, also showed 
significant improvements (Varenna et al. 2013). There were no serious or severe adverse events in

the neridronic acid treatment group. The most frequent adverse events were arthralgia, fever, and 
headache, consistent with the acute phase reaction. 
6.4 
Trial rationale 
Grünenthal is currently developing intravenous neridronic acid for treatment of CRPS. 
The aim of the current trial is to investigate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of neridronic acid 
administered as 4 intravenous infusions of neridronic acid 100 mg, resulting in a total dose of 
400 mg, in subjects with CRPS. This pivotal trial is intended to be an integral part of the overall 
efficacy and safety assessment of neridronic acid for the treatment of subjects with CRPS and to 
support product registration. 
Additional aims are to assess the safety and tolerability of initial dosing with neridronic acid for up 
to 12 months, to assess the need for further treatment after 6 months, and to describe the effect of an 
additional treatment cycle of 4 additional infusions of 100 mg of neridronic acid.

TRIAL OBJECTIVES AND ENDPOINTS 
The trial objectives and endpoints are given in Section 1.2. 
The pain intensity score used for the primary endpoint will be calculated from average pain 
intensity ratings, assessed once daily in the electronic diary and referring to the CRPS-affected 
limb. The baseline average pain intensity score is defined as the average of the week before 
allocation to treatment at Visit 2 and calculated as the average of the 7 average pain intensity ratings 
starting in the evening of Day -7 until Day -1. A baseline pain intensity score (≥4 on the NRS) must 
be confirmed at the site prior to subject allocation (at Visit 2). Subjects who do not meet eligibility 
criteria due to inadequate pain (<4 on the NRS) will be excluded from the trial. 
Pain intensity scores from Week 1 through Week 12 will be calculated in a similar manner using 
average pain intensity ratings obtained from the electronic diary. The Week 12 pain intensity score, 
for evaluation of the primary outcome, will be the average of up to 7 possible ratings obtained in the 
7-day period culminating with the rating obtained in the evening prior to the Week 12 visit. 
Handling of missing pain ratings will be addressed in the statistical analysis plan. Compliance with 
the pain ratings in the electronic diary must be monitored and subjects with insufficient ratings 
(<4 ratings per week for 2 weeks) should receive a reminder and undergo re-training. 
During Visit 2 (Day 1), Visit 7 (Week 6), Visit 8 (Week 12), Visit 9 (Week 16), and Visit 11 
(Week 26), Visit 16 (Week 36), and Visit 17 (Week 52), the subjects will be asked to record the 
pain intensity ratings for average, worst, and current CRPS-related pain directly on a tablet 
computer maintained at the site. For subjects included in Treatment Period B, the subjects will also 
be asked to record pain intensity rating at Visit 12, Visit 13, Visit 14, and Visit 15. Worst and 
average pain intensity ratings will be based on a 24-hour recall period. The pain ratings and other 
patient-reported outcomes from the tablet computers recorded up to Week 26 as well as DMA, 
edema, and PPT assessment will be used for the secondary endpoints.

TRIAL DESIGN 
8.1 
Discussion of the trial design 
This is a multi-site, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 2-arm, Phase III trial of 
intravenous neridronic acid in subjects with CRPS. 
The trial design was selected to confirm the efficacy and safety of neridronic acid in subjects with 
CRPS. A randomized, double-blind design was chosen to avoid selection bias and provide balance 
of baseline characteristics across treatment groups. Blinding is critical to minimize potential biases 
resulting from differences in management, treatment, or assessment of subjects, or interpretation of 
results that could arise as a result of subject or investigator knowledge of the assigned treatment. 
Parallel-group designs are well-understood from a statistical design perspective. A crossover, 
randomized-withdrawal, or other design was considered unsuitable for this trial due to the very long 
half-life of bisphosphonates, which may persist in bone for years. 
The 11-point NRS is a standard, widely used tool for the assessment of pain and is recommended 
by the Initiative on Methods, Measurement, and Pain Assessment in Clinical Trials (IMMPACT) as 
a core outcome measure in chronic pain trials (Dworkin et al. 2005). 
The efficacy assessments chosen for this trial reflect the core outcome measures for CRPS clinical 
trials (COMPACT; Grieve et al. 2017). For further details, see Section 12.9. 
Semi-objective measures for frequent signs of CRPS beyond spontaneous pain (i.e., DMA, PPT 
edema, AROM) have also been included. 
Choice of control 
Use of a placebo control is considered justifiable when there are no established effective treatments 
for a disease or condition (ICH E10). As reflected in a recent Cochrane review of interventions for 
CRPS, there is no consensus for optimal management of this condition and the limited number of 
published trials provides only low or very low quality of clinical evidence for any intervention 
(O’Connell et al. 2013). In the absence of a suitable active comparator, the use of a placebo control 
allows for blinding and randomization to control for expectations of benefits that may occur from 
being in the trial. The placebo group also controls for spontaneous changes in the course of the 
disease. The use of placebo in this trial does not imply that subjects will be untreated, as subjects 
may continue to receive stable analgesic regimens during the trial as well as short-acting analgesics 
in case of severe pain flare related to CRPS (for details, see Section 1.4.2). 
Trial design limitations 
The concomitant use of pain medications in this trial, which are allowed because of the severity of 
the condition, may affect the sensitivity of subject-reported outcomes and the ability to detect 
changes in pain intensity. Therefore, it is important to emphasize the need for stable treatment 
during the trial at least until Week 12 to optimize assessment of the primary endpoint. Any changes 
in pain medications must be recorded. 
Second treatment course 
For those subjects not experiencing sufficient efficacy after a first treatment course with IMP as 
assessed at Visit 11 (Week 26), a second treatment period (Treatment Period B) in subjects with 

Grünenthal

Protocol KF7013-04 including Amendment 01

DMS version 2.0

persistent pain is included to allow subjects previously on neridronic acid and on placebo to be 
treated with neridronic acid either for the second or the first time, respectively. The second 
treatment course is scheduled to occur after 26 weeks. 
Subjects treated during Treatment Period B will provide data on safety and tolerability of a second 
treatment course as well as descriptive data on the efficacy of a second treatment course in subjects 
with no or insufficient response to the first treatment course as well as in subjects who lost response 
to the initial treatment course. Furthermore, subjects from the placebo group can receive verum 
treatment in Treatment Period B. 
8.1.1 
Rationale for the trial population 
Although previous trials with neridronic acid have been performed in subjects with CRPS-I, 
CRPS-I and CRPS Type II (CRPS-II) are likely to share the same pathophysiological basis 
(Oaklander and Horowitz 2015; Bruehl 2015). 
There are no known methods to objectively distinguish between CRPS-I and CRPS-II subtypes, as 
electromyography and nerve conduction studies have low negative predictive value and do not rule 
out nerve abnormalities in CRPS-I. Furthermore, pathophysiological changes in bone, the principal 
target for efficacy of neridronic acid, may occur in patients diagnosed with CRPS-II. 
Given the uncertain distinctions between these subtypes and lack of pathologic or pharmacologic 
basis for restricting treatment to CRPS-I, subjects with CRPS-II will also be included in this trial. 
Reports from the literature suggest better responses to treatment when subjects are treated early 
after onset of the first symptoms (Wertli et al. 2014). There is no consensus on an exact time 
window for treatment. Preliminary data from an open-label trial employing a cumulative dose of 
neridronic acid 400 mg (KF7013-03), suggest clinically relevant decreases in pain intensity in a 
subgroup of subjects with a CRPS duration ≤2 years. The trial population in this trial will therefore 
be limited to this disease duration. 
Subjects must be on stable therapy prescribed for CRPS for at least 1 month prior to randomization 
and allocation to maximize sensitivity to detect changes in pain intensity and other efficacy 
outcomes. Analgesic regimens including pro re nata (as needed) opioids or other analgesics are 
allowed if the regimen has been prescribed as part of a stable treatment. The investigator must 
select subjects who are anticipated to be able to maintain a stable treatment regimen for the first 
12 weeks of the trial (up to and including Visit 8). Initiation of new therapies during the trial will be 
prohibited. Short courses of analgesics, including opioids (unless prohibited according to 
Section 1.4.2.1), will be allowed to be prescribed in the event of a severe pain flare. 
8.1.2 
Rationale for the investigational medicinal products and the selected 
doses 
A previous pilot trial of neridronic acid, including cumulative intravenous doses of 200 mg, 
300 mg, and 400 mg, suggested that doses below 400 mg were suboptimally effective (Varenna et 
al. 2004). 
A previous randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial performed by Abiogen Pharma 
S.p.A. demonstrated that a 400 mg cumulative intravenous dose of neridronic acid is effective, safe, 
and well tolerated in subjects with CRPS-I (Varenna et al. 2013; Clinical Study Report 

Grünenthal 
Confidential 
Protocol KF7013-04 including Amendment 01 
Page 46 of 168

NERI-AS001-07). As the 4 x 100 mg dose regimen used in that trial has been approved for 
treatment of CRPS-I in Italy, the same dose regimen was selected for investigation in this trial. 
In Italy, the recommended infusion time for 100 mg neridronic acid to treat osteogenesis imperfecta 
and CRPS-I is 2 hours. To limit the maximum concentrations (Cmax) in this trial to levels similar to 
(and unlikely to exceed) those obtained in the KF7013-01 trial, in which 62.5 mg neridronic acid 
was infused in 2 hours, the infusion time has been extended to 4 hours. 
8.1.3 
Rationale for the number and the frequency of visits/assessments 
The number and frequency of visits are considered to be sufficient to ensure subject safety and meet 
trial objectives. 
8.1.4 
Background and rationale regarding pharmacogenetic and omics testing 
The European Medicines Agency (EMA; 2011) and United States FDA (2013) guidance documents 
recommend the conduct of pharmacogenetic assessments in clinical trials during drug development 
(Phase I to Phase III). 
Genetic factors are suggested to play a role in CRPS (de Rooij et al. 2009). To further characterize 
protein-coding areas, signatures, and haplotypes related to CRPS-I, potentially relevant genes 
together with genes of the corresponding signaling pathways will be analyzed using genotyping of a 
panel of pre-selected single-nucleotide polymorphisms and proteomics of proteins encoded by these 
genes. The aim is to identify relevant pathways and gene-phenotype associations that will allow a 
phenotypic characterization of CRPS pain conditions. The associated single-nucleotide 
polymorphisms will be related to all corresponding proteins and then further analyzed using omics 
methods to identify potential biomarkers. In addition, the associated single-nucleotide 
polymorphisms will be used to identify potential genetic predispositions to CRPS and the function 
of these genes in response to treatment and disease progression, including potential linked side 
effects. 
All measurements and analyses will be described in separate pharmacogenetic and omics plans. 
8.2 
Benefit/risk analysis 
Potential benefits to subjects participating in this trial may include a reduction in pain and other 
symptoms of CRPS, as well as benefits of medical supervision from being in a clinical trial. 
Risks to subjects participating in this trial are primarily related to the known side effects of 
neridronic acid and bisphosphonates as a class, particularly those associated with intravenous 
administration. Although doses of up to 400 mg of neridronic acid have been administered safely in 
subjects with Paget’s disease or CRPS-I, most of the clinical experience for neridronic acid has 
been at doses of 200 mg or below. In addition to drug-specific risks, there are also the risks of the 
procedures used in the trial. 
In order to minimize the risk for the subject, it is obligatory that the investigator becomes familiar 
with all sections of the current neridronic acid investigator’s brochure prior to the initiation of the 
trial and follows the warnings and directions thereof.

The trial population described in this protocol will consist of subjects with a diagnosis of CRPS, 
with onset of symptoms within the last 2 years, and who are medically stable and in stable follow-
up therapy for CRPS for at least 1 month prior to allocation. 
Subjects will continue to receive stable therapy for CRPS. Additional pain medication may be 
prescribed in the event of severe pain flare, with notification of the sponsor or sponsor’s 
representative (i.e., medical monitor). Changes in analgesic medications and other treatments for 
CRPS may be permitted after Week 12, following notification of the sponsor or sponsor’s 
representative (i.e., medical monitor). After Visit 10, investigators will assess the further need of 
concomitant treatment for CRPS, in particular opioids, and evaluate if the dose or frequency of 
these treatments can be decreased, or if treatment can be stopped completely. This will help to 
ensure that subjects in the trial will not suffer from untreated pain and that the subject’s exposure to 
other analgesics will be decreased or stopped if they are no longer needed. Subjects may withdraw 
from the trial at any time, without giving a reason and without prejudice. However, subjects who 
withdraw will be asked to continue follow-up visits if at all possible for the scientific integrity of 
the trial as well as for their own safety. 
Potential risks and risk management of neridronic acid 
Acute phase reaction 
The most common side effects associated with parenteral administration of aminobisphosphonates 
are flu-like symptoms, commonly referred to as “acute phase reaction” (Reid et al. 2010; Silverman 
et al. 2011). Symptoms include fever, myalgia, fatigue, headache, diarrhea, arthralgia, and bone 
pain. These are self-limiting and usually resolve after 24 hours to 48 hours. Symptoms of the acute 
phase reaction typically occur following the first administration and are absent or decreased 
following subsequent administrations. For symptomatic management of the acute phase reaction, 
oral acetaminophen (paracetamol) is recommended (for details, see Section 1.4.2). Non-steroidal 
anti-inflammatory drugs should not be used to alleviate the symptoms of the acute phase reaction 
due to their potential to cause acute changes in renal function, which may confound renal safety 
assessments. 
Ocular effects 
Eye disorders have been reported with neridronic acid and appear to be associated with the acute 
phase reaction. These events include anterior uveitis, episcleritis, conjunctivitis and ocular pain. As 
severe ocular inflammation may increase the potential risk of long-term vision loss, treatment with 
neridronic acid will be discontinued at first signs of ocular inflammation, followed by an 
ophthalmologic exam. 
Hypocalcemia 
Aminobisphosphonates are potent inhibitors of bone turnover, and are thus associated with a risk of 
hypocalcemia. 
The normal compensatory mechanism is an increase in parathyroid hormone, which can trigger 
renal absorption of calcium and vitamin D3 production in response to a decreased calcium efflux 
from the skeleton after bisphosphonate therapy (Polyzos et al. 2011). 
Subjects with abnormal blood calcium or magnesium concentrations, a history of disorders that 
impair the compensatory increase in parathyroid hormone, or concomitant use of any drug with 

Grünenthal 
Confidential 
Protocol KF7013-04 including Amendment 01

DMS version 2.0

known potential to cause hypocalcemia will be excluded from the trial. Retesting of out-of-range 
values is permitted once during the Enrollment Period. Albumin-corrected serum calcium should be 
considered when serum albumin is below the normal range (e.g., <3.5 g/dL). 
All subjects will be provided with supplemental calcium and vitamin D, starting from Visit 1 and 
continuing through to the end of the trial (for details, see Section 1.4.2). Subjects with vitamin D 
levels below 30 ng/mL (75 nmol/L) will receive supplementation to achieve values of at least 
30 ng/mL (75 nmol/L) prior to allocation to IMP. Subjects who do not reach vitamin D levels of at 
least 30 ng/mL (75 nmol/L) following appropriate supplementation will be excluded from the trial. 
Renal toxicity 
Based on the available data for neridronic acid, there is no clinical evidence for renal safety 
concerns to date. Nevertheless, renal toxicity was observed in non-clinical studies of neridronic acid 
and is regarded as a class effect of intravenous bisphosphonates. In most cases, signs for renal 
toxicity following administration of other intravenous bisphosphonates were transient and reversible 
after discontinuation of the drug or dose adjustment. Pronounced renal toxicity is a rare event, more 
common in long-term use, and there is a contributing role of pre-existing renal disease as well as 
other factors like other medication associated with renal toxicity and dehydration. 
Bisphosphonates are rapidly cleared by the kidneys, potentially leading to a high concentration in 
kidney tissue during and immediately after the infusion. Dose and infusion time are the main factors 
related to renal toxicity. 
In order to mitigate the risk of renal toxicity, subjects with evidence of severe renal impairment will 
be excluded (for details, see exclusion criterion 1). 
Taking into account that renal toxicity due to intravenous bisphosphonates is related to the 
maximum drug concentration achieved and not the area under the curve of drug exposure (Khosla et 
al. 2012), 400 mg neridronic acid will be administered as 4 infusions of 100 mg neridronic acid 
administered over 240 minutes at Visit 2, Visit 3, Visit 4, and Visit 5 (and Visit 11, Visit 12, 
Visit 13, and Visit 14 during Treatment Period B) to subjects with no or mild renal impairment. 
For subjects with moderate renal impairment, the dose will be adjusted (see Section 10.2).  
Due to the potential for renal toxicity with neridronic acid as with other bisphosphonates, renal 
safety monitoring will be implemented in this trial together with defined stopping criteria (for 
details, see Section 9.3.2). 
Cardiovascular 
Despite the ability to transiently lower calcium levels, there has been no indication to date that 
bisphosphonates, as a class, cause prolongation of QT interval. Neridronic acid has not been studied 
in dedicated safety trials to evaluate a potential effect on the QT interval. Subjects with risk factors 
for QT prolongation or cardiac arrhythmia, including abnormal serum potassium levels, are 
excluded from this trial. Subjects will undergo regular 12-lead ECG examinations throughout the 
trial. 
Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw 
Osteonecrosis of the jaw is a rare adverse effect of bisphosphonate therapy, most commonly 
reported for patients with multiple myeloma and osteolytic bone metastases receiving repeated 

Grünenthal 
Confidential 
Protocol KF7013-04 including Amendment 01 
Page 49 of 168 
DMS version 2.0 
22 Nov 2018 
 
 
monthly infusions for treatment of skeletal related events and bone pain. Factors that may 
contribute to risk of osteonecrosis of the jaw include recent tooth extraction, unhealed or infected 
extraction sites, dental/periodontal disease, improperly fitting dentures causing injury, and prior 
radiation of the head or neck. 
Invasive dental procedures should be avoided during the trial; however, subjects who require 
emergency dental surgery during the trial should proceed with appropriate treatment including 
prophylactic antibiotics and frequent follow-up. Subjects should be encouraged to use good dental 
hygiene (daily flossing and gentle brushing) throughout the trial. 
Osteonecrosis of the external auditory canal  
Osteonecrosis of the external auditory canal has been reported with bisphosphonates, mainly in 
association with long-term therapy. Possible risk factors for osteonecrosis of the external auditory 
canal include steroid use and chemotherapy and/or local risk factors such as infection or trauma. 
The possibility of osteonecrosis of the external auditory canal should be considered in patients 
receiving bisphosphonates who present with ear symptoms including chronic ear infections and/or 
local risk factors such as infection or trauma. 
Atypical femoral fractures 
Although a causal relationship has not been conclusively established, meta‐analysis suggests there 
is an increased risk of atypical femoral fractures in long-term bisphosphonate users. These fractures 
have a low prevalence (1.1% of all femoral fractures), and the absolute risk to patients receiving 
bisphosphonates is low. Subjects should be advised to report any thigh, hip, or groin pain, and any 
patient who develops these symptoms should be evaluated for the presence of an incomplete femur 
fracture. 
Other effects on bone 
Although the potential for deleterious effects on bone following long-term treatment with 
bisphosphonates remains controversial to this day, no histomorphometric evidence of osteomalacia 
was reported at doses up to neridronic acid 250 mg in patients with Paget’s disease of bone 
(McCloskey et al. 1987; Atkins et al. 1987), in contrast to findings following administration of the 
first generation bisphosphonate, etidronic acid. 
Supporting the absence of any important effect on bone health, long-term neridronic acid treatment 
increased bone mineral density and lowered risk of clinical fracture in children and adults with 
osteogenesis imperfecta. These results argue against a deleterious effect on bone mineralization due 
to neridronic acid. 
However, the potential for deleterious effects of bisphosphonates on bone has been suggested in 
conditions of low bone turnover, such as renal osteodystrophy or other adynamic bone disease, 
although the benefit/risk profile in these conditions is unclear. In addition to exclusion of subjects 
with chronic kidney disease stage 4 and 5, subjects with known defects in bone mineralization or 
adynamic bone disease are excluded from the trial. 
Pregnancy and breastfeeding 
There are no adequate and well-controlled trials of neridronic acid in pregnant or lactating women. 
Although there are no data on fetal risk in humans, bisphosphonates do cause fetal harm in animals, 
and animal data suggest that uptake of bisphosphonates into fetal bone may be greater than into 

Grünenthal 
Confidential 
Protocol KF7013-04 including Amendment 01

DMS version 2.0

maternal bone. Therefore, neridronic acid should not be administered during pregnancy and 
lactation and as a result, pregnant or lactating women are excluded from participation in this trial. 
Women of child-bearing potential must have a negative urine β-HCG pregnancy test at the 
Enrollment Visit and prior to each infusion of IMP. Trial subjects must use contraception as defined 
in inclusion criterion 6. 
Risks related to acetaminophen and calcium and vitamin D supplementation 
High doses of acetaminophen may cause hepatotoxicity and can lead to liver failure. Subjects who 
take acetaminophen for prevention or relief of symptoms of the acute phase reaction during the 
treatment periods will be reminded that the total dose must not exceed 4 g/day and that caution 
should be exercised since acetaminophen may be present in many over-the-counter drugs, 
particularly analgesic medications. 
Recommended daily doses of calcium and vitamin D are lower than the tolerable upper intake level, 
at which there is no risk to healthy individuals (Ross et al. 2011; Rosen et al. 2012). Short courses 
of high doses of vitamin D are anticipated to pose no significant risk to trial participants. 
General risks 
Subjects will be regularly monitored for any changes in their medical status, e.g., vital signs, ECG 
parameters, and laboratory values, during the trial (see Section 12.1 for overall volume of blood 
samples). 
Blood sampling may cause pain or bruise at the site where the blood is taken due to insertion of the 
needle. No other invasive procedure is planned. The total volume of blood to be collected and the 
planned sampling frequency do not pose any clear risk and are considered justifiable in the context 
of the trial and its duration. 
Conclusion 
As there are currently no FDA or EMA approvals for specific pharmacological treatments for 
CRPS, which is a severe pain condition with limited effective treatment options, the potential for 
benefit of neridronic acid is considered to outweigh the potential risk in this population. The need 
for controlled efficacy and safety trials of potential new treatments for CRPS justifies this trial on 
moral and ethical grounds.

SUBJECT ENROLLMENT AND TRIAL DISCONTINUATION 
9.1 
Subject enrollment procedure 
Subjects will be screened to identify subjects who could potentially be enrolled into the trial. 
Potentially eligible subjects will be asked to enroll into the trial by giving written informed consent. 
If required by applicable regulatory requirements, the (principal) investigator must keep suitable 
logs of the subject enrollment procedure. 
Subjects who were enrolled in KF7013-01 but were not allocated to treatment (i.e., did not receive 
any treatment with IMP) or who only received placebo may be eligible if they satisfy all inclusion 
and exclusion criteria in Section 1.3. 

Grünenthal

Protocol KF7013-04 including Amendment 01

Re-enrollment will be permitted (once), upon approval by the sponsor, for subjects with technical 
reasons for enrollment failure (e.g., inadequate time period for stabilization of treatment; inadequate 
time from discontinuation of a prohibited medication or treatment). No subject who received 
infusion of IMP, even a partial infusion, is allowed to be re-enrolled. Re-enrollment of subjects who 
did not meet inclusion criteria related to the diagnosis of CRPS and the baseline pain level is not 
allowed. Re-enrolled subjects must fulfill all inclusion and exclusion criteria in the current protocol. 
If a subject is re-enrolled, a new subject ID will be assigned and all enrollment procedures will be 
performed under the new subject ID. 
9.2 
Inclusion/exclusion criteria 
The trial population must comply with the inclusion/exclusion criteria given in Section 1.3. 
Subjects will only receive IMP if documentation is available showing that they comply with all of 
these criteria. 
9.3 
Subject discontinuation from the trial or IMP 
Once a subject enrolls in this trial, whilst protecting subject safety, the trial site should make every 
effort to retain the subject for the planned duration of the trial. 
A subject may withdraw consent at any time. 
9.3.1 
Subject discontinuation from the trial 
All bisphosphonates have a long retention time in bone, and duration of efficacy is related to their 
persistent effects on bone turnover, specifically the inhibition of activation of bone resorption (Al 
Nofal et al. 2015; Naylor and Eastell 2012; Jung and Lein 2014). Collection of follow-up data is 
important for characterizing the safety and efficacy of neridronic acid. Subjects who receive any 
treatment, even a partial infusion, should be encouraged to remain in the trial for the full duration 
for follow-up safety and efficacy assessments. 
Under certain situations, discontinuation from the trial may be required or be in the best interest of 
the subject from a risk/benefit perspective. Table 1 lists mandatory and optional reasons for 
discontinuation from the trial.

9.3.2 
Subject discontinuation from the IMP 
Discontinuation of IMP applies only to Treatment Period A or Treatment Period B. Subjects who 
are discontinued from IMP should not be discontinued from the trial except for reasons indicated in 
Table 1. Subjects who are discontinued from IMP should be encouraged to remain in the trial for 
their own safety and for the integrity of the trial. 
Subjects must be evaluated prior to each infusion of IMP. The investigator must permanently or 
temporarily discontinue treatment with IMP for any reasons listed in Table 2. The investigator may 
decide to temporarily discontinue a subject from receiving IMP for other reasons (e.g., if further 
assessments may be helpful to assure safety of the subject). The investigator may also choose to 
permanently discontinue a subject from treatment if they believe that continued exposure of the 
subject to neridronic acid may pose an undue risk to the subject, e.g., due to particular adverse 
events or due to deterioration in the subject’s health for reasons related or unrelated to the 
treatment.  
In situations where treatment is temporarily discontinued, Treatment Period A or Treatment 
Period B may be extended to a maximum of 21 days (for details, see footnote b) in Section 1.6.1 
and Section 1.6.2).

include eye redness and irritation, blurred vision, eye pain, and sensitivity to light). Subjects with signs or symptoms of 
ocular inflammation should be temporarily suspended from treatment. Subjects with resolution of signs and symptoms 
within 5 days may resume treatment. Subjects with persistent or recurrent signs and symptoms of ocular inflammation 
must be discontinued from IMP and undergo an ophthalmologic examination. 
ACR = albumin to creatinine ratio, eGFR = estimated glomerular filtration rate, ECG = electrocardiogram,

9.3.3 
Procedure for the handling of discontinued subjects 
9.3.3.1 
Handling of subjects who discontinued from the trial 
The principal investigator must document any discontinuation of a subject and inform the sponsor. 
Where applicable, the relevant IECs or IRBs must be informed with a detailed written explanation. 
The following must be done for all discontinued subjects, including those who withdrew informed 
consent: 
• 
Document the main reason for discontinuation from the trial. 
• 
Ensure that all data collected until the time of discontinuation is transferred to the eCRF. 
• 
Complete any other trial-related formalities, e.g., those related to discharge from the trial 
site. 
• 
For subjects withdrawing consent, document in the source data the date and time of 
withdrawal. 
• 
If possible, perform an Early Termination Visit, with procedures identical to Visit 17. 
Subjects who withdraw consent and agree to perform the Early Termination Visit must 
document their approval in writing. 
9.3.3.2 
Handling of subjects discontinued from the IMP but not from the trial 
Subjects who are temporarily suspended from IMP may undergo abbreviated visits for safety 
assessments to support a decision to continue treatment or permanently discontinue IMP. Subjects 

Grünenthal

Protocol KF7013-04 including Amendment 01 
Page 55 of 168

who are permanently discontinued from IMP should proceed to Visit 6 (for Treatment Period A) or 
Visit 15 (for Treatment Period B) at approximately 4 days after the last infusion, if possible; Visit 7 
or Visit 16, respectively, and subsequent visits will proceed according to the original visit schedule 
(relative to Visit 2). 
9.3.3.3 
Replacement of subjects 
Subjects will not be replaced. 
9.3.4 
Premature termination or suspension of the trial 
The following criteria for premature termination or suspension of the trial apply: 
• 
Significant changes in the risk-benefit profile assessment, based on emerging safety or 
efficacy information, such that continuation of the trial would compromise ethical treatment 
of subjects within or outside of the trial. 
• 
Request for termination or suspension of the trial by the FDA or other regulatory agency. 
• 
Decision by the sponsor to terminate the program. 
The sponsor also reserves the right to close an investigational site, provided there is reasonable 
cause and sufficient notice is given in advance of the intended termination. Reasons for early 
closure of an investigational site include failure of the investigator to comply with the protocol, 
sponsor’s procedures, or GCP guidelines; inadequate recruitment of subjects by the investigator; 
and enrollment target reached. 
The relevant IECs or IRBs, the regulatory authorities, or the sponsor or the sponsor’s authorized 
delegate alone or in conjunction have the power to make a binding decision to prematurely 
terminate or suspend the trial at any or all trial sites. In addition, for an individual trial site, this 
decision can be made by the principal investigator. 
The party prematurely terminating or suspending the trial must promptly inform all other parties 
(i.e., the principal investigators, the relevant IECs or IRBs, the relevant regulatory authorities, or the 
sponsor/the sponsor’s authorized delegate, as applicable). 
In addition, if the principal investigator decides to terminate or suspend the trial at the trial site, they 
must promptly inform the subjects, ensure appropriate follow-up for any enrolled subjects, and 
provide the relevant IECs or IRBs and the sponsor or the sponsor’s authorized delegate, as 
applicable, with a written explanation of the termination or suspension. 
The international coordinating investigator and country-specific coordinating investigators must be 
informed immediately if the trial is prematurely terminated or suspended.

10.2 
Administration of investigational medicinal products 
For subjects with no or mild renal impairment, the full contents of a single vial (8 mL) will be 
diluted in 500 mL normal saline and administered by slow intravenous infusion (240 minutes 
[maximum 260 minutes]) at Visit 2, Visit 3, Visit 4, and Visit 5, resulting in a total dose of 400 mg 
neridronic acid or matching placebo. The complete solution volume of 500 mL should be 
administered at each infusion visit unless treatment is suspended for safety reasons. Any 
administration of less than 500 mL should be noted and recorded in the eCRF. No more than 
4 infusions (400 mg total dose) may be administered to any subject in Treatment Period A. 
For subjects with no or mild renal impairment included in Treatment Period B, the full contents of a 
single vial (8 mL) will be diluted in 500 mL normal saline and administered by slow intravenous 
infusion (240 minutes [maximum 260 minutes]) at Visit 11, Visit 12, Visit 13, and Visit 14, 
resulting in a total dose of 400 mg neridronic acid. 
A maximum total dose of neridronic acid 800 mg is planned for subjects allocated to neridronic acid 
in Treatment Period A who go on to complete Treatment Period B. 
For subjects with moderate renal impairment, the following dose adjustments will be applicable: 
CKD-EPI Stage 3a (eGFR 45 mL/min/1.73 m2 to <60 mL/min/1.73 m2) 
6 mL of solution from a single vial (corresponding to neridronic acid 75 mg) will be diluted in 
500 mL normal saline and administered by slow intravenous infusion (240 minutes [maximum 
260 minutes]) at each treatment visit, resulting in a total dose of 300 mg neridronic acid or matching 
placebo. 
CKD-EPI Stage 3b (eGFR 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 to <45 mL/min/1.73 m2) 
5 mL of solution from a single vial (corresponding to neridronic acid 62.5 mg) will be diluted in 
500 mL normal saline and administered by slow intravenous infusion (240 minutes [maximum 
260 minutes]) at each treatment visit, resulting in a total dose of 250 mg neridronic acid or matching 
placebo. 
Any decision regarding dose adjustment will be based on the last eGFR value available before 
Visit 2 for Treatment Period A and the last eGFR value available before Visit 11 for Treatment 
Period B. 
All infusions must be performed at the trial site under the supervision of medical staff. 
Subjects must be assessed for hydration status prior to each infusion to minimize risk for renal 
toxicity. Hydration status will be evaluated by querying subjects about risk factors for volume 
depletion (poor oral fluid intake, diarrhea) and examining vital signs, mucous membranes, and 
sensorium. Oral fluid intake may be sufficient for correction of mild dehydration. 
The IMP discontinuation criteria described in Section 9.3.2 must be evaluated prior to each 
infusion. The 10-day Treatment Period A (or Treatment Period B) may be extended in the event of 
temporary discontinuation of IMP, as described in Section 9.3.2. 
The infusion site will be selected to avoid inducing pain in the CRPS-affected limb.

10.3 
Method of assigning subjects to treatment (allocation) 
On Day 1, subjects who comply with all inclusion criteria and do not meet any of the exclusion 
criteria will be randomly allocated to 1 of the 2 treatment groups in a 1:1 ratio stratified by 
geographic region. Treatment assignment will be performed centrally using an interactive response 
technology system prior to the first intravenous infusion of IMP. The details of the vendor and 
system will be filed in the trial master file. 
The investigator (or delegate) must log into the system using their own user identification number 
and a password. The investigator (or delegate) will enter the subject’s number and other information 
required by the system to obtain a medication number. The medication number will then be used to 
select the correct package of IMP to give to the subject. 
10.4 
Blinding and unblinding 
10.4.1 
Methods of blinding 
The subject’s initial treatment will be blinded until the 26-week analysis. However, investigators 
and subjects will not be informed about the initial treatment allocation at any time before database 
lock of the full trial. 
Randomization and blinding will be performed in accordance with the sponsor’s standard operating 
procedures (SOPs). 
10.4.2 
Methods of unblinding 
All persons involved in the conduct, data management, and analysis of the trial will remain blinded 
until unblinding is performed after database lock at the 26-week analysis. Except as indicated below 
for reasons of subject safety, no subject is to be unblinded until the complete dataset has been 
entered into the database and the database has been locked. 
Personnel in the sponsor’s departments of clinical trial supply will be unblinded according to the 
sponsor’s SOPs. 
10.4.3 
Identification of IMPs in emergency situations 
The investigator and the responsible drug safety department of the sponsor will receive appropriate 
methods for unblinding of single cases, i.e., interactive response technology system access to 
unblinding functionality. 
The code may be broken when it is necessary and in that subject’s interest in order to identify the 
IMPs given, e.g., if knowing the identification of the treatment arm would lead to the investigator 
treating the subject differently. In addition, within drug safety, the code may be broken for 
regulatory reporting, medico-scientific assessment of adverse events, or on request of the qualified 
person for pharmacovigilance. 
For every subject whose blind was broken, the following information must be documented on an 
“unblinding an individual subject form”: 
• 
The reason for, the date, and time of unblinding. 
• 
The person(s) informed of the treatment allocation must be identified. 

Grünenthal

Protocol KF7013-04 including Amendment 01 
Page 59 of 168 
DMS version 2.0

In order to maintain the double-blind nature of the trial, the allocation of IMPs for the subject must 
not be communicated further unless required for the surveillance of the subject or if necessary for 
urgent risk to benefit re-evaluation and/or measures for urgent risk minimization. 
If required by local regulations, it may be that the IEC, IRB, or the international coordinating 
investigator needs to be informed. 
10.5 
Allowed and forbidden prior/concomitant medications or therapies 
Information on allowed or forbidden prior/concomitant medications or therapies is provided in 
Section 1.4.2. 
For the purposes of data reporting by the site, the cutoff for reporting medication as either prior or 
concomitant is defined as the start of the first administration of IMP. 
The allowed and forbidden concomitant medications or therapies will be explained to the subject by 
the investigator. 
In emergency situations, subjects should be treated according to standard medical practice (see 
Section 11.3.1). 
For information about potential drug-drug interactions, see Section 7.3.4.1 of the neridronic acid 
investigator’s brochure. 
10.6 
Documentation of drug accountability 
The principal investigator must ensure that documentation is maintained for the receipt, inventory, 
use, and destruction or return of unused, used, or partially used packages of IMPs. The 
documentation must include IMP name, dates, quantities, subject numbers, batch/serial numbers or 
other identification numbers, expiration dates, and the means to identify the subject to whom it was 
given. 
Documentation must be maintained for the checking of drug accountability. 
Before the unused IMPs supplied to the trial site are returned or destroyed, the principal investigator 
must allow sponsor representatives to perform drug reconciliation. The entries in the documentation 
will be compared with the returned and residual IMPs and the administration/intake as documented 
in the eCRF, with clarification of any discrepancies or inconsistencies. 
11 
COURSE OF THE TRIAL AND CONDITIONS 
See Section 1.1.1 for a flow diagram summary of the trial and Section 1.6 for tabular schedules of 
events. 
11.1 
Course of the trial 
Blood samples for bone turnover markers should be collected in the morning under fasted 
conditions at Visits 2, 6, 7, 8, 10, 15, 16, and 17. Therefore, these visits should be attended in a 
fasting state (at least 8 hours).

The site should remind the subject 2 days before the scheduled visits that they should come to the 
site in a fasted state at these visits. 
Fasting, non-fasting, or insufficient fasting should be documented at these visits. Non-fasting or 
insufficient fasting will not be documented as a protocol deviation (see Section 3.2). 
11.1.1 
Enrollment Period 
The Enrollment Period consists of an Enrollment Visit (Visit 1) from Day -60 to Day -8 and a 
baseline pain assessment phase from Day -7 to Day -1 during which subjects will record pain 
intensity ratings in the electronic diary. These pain intensity ratings will be used to calculate the 
baseline average pain intensity score. 
Additional visits are allowed during the Enrollment Period to confirm normalization of laboratory 
values (e.g., for subjects with vitamin D deficiency, up to a maximum of 4 times repeated 
laboratory testing for vitamin D in 60 days). For details of repeat testing, see Section 1.3.2. 
11.1.1.1 
Visit 1 (Day -60 to Day -8) 
The following evaluations will be performed: 
• 
Obtain written informed consent (the specific informed consent form for pharmacogenetic 
and omics sampling should preferably be signed at Visit 1, but has to be signed at the latest 
at Visit 2 before the sample is taken).

11.1.1.2 
Baseline pain assessment phase (Day -7 to Day -1) 
In order to calculate the baseline pain intensity score, subjects will be asked to rate their average 
CRPS-related pain intensity using an 11-point NRS once daily (in the evening) during the last 
7 days prior to Visit 2, in the electronic diary. Subjects will also be asked to rate their worst and 
their current CRPS-related pain intensity once daily during the same period of time. The worst and 
average pain will be based on a 24-hour recall period. 
11.1.2 
Treatment Period A 
Infusion visits should be separated by 3-day intervals to the extent possible (i.e., Day 1, Day 4, 
Day 7, and Day 10). Infusion visits on consecutive days are not allowed. The full dosing period 
must not exceed 21 days from the first infusion (Visit 2). To facilitate scheduling, the interval 
between infusion visits may be adapted, provided the 21-day time period is not exceeded and 
discontinuation criteria can be assessed. In case of suspension of treatment due to a suspected safety 
concern or a visit scheduling difficulty, resumption of treatment is allowed upon resolution of 
findings, with sponsor agreement. 
11.1.2.1 
Visit 2 (Day 1) 
The following evaluations will be performed prior to the start of IMP infusion: 
• 
Record physical examination outcome (change from Visit 1). 
• 
Record vital signs. 
• 
Record triplicate 12-lead ECG (at least 15 minutes prior to the start of infusion). 
• 
Record adverse events.

• 
Measure edema, DMA, PPT, and AROM. 
• 
Ask the subject to complete the PROMIS-29 profile and the PROMIS-EDDEP39 (the 
investigator should review the subject’s answer to the PROMIS EDDEP39 question before 
the subject leaves the site and in case of suicidal ideation the investigator should consider 
involvement of a mental health professional). 
• 
Ask the subject to complete the 6 neuropathic pain items of the SF-MPQ-2. 
• 
Ask the subject to complete the PCS.

Take blood for bone turnover marker evaluation. 
• 
Take blood for sIL-2R testing. 
• 
Take blood for pharmacogenetic and omics testing (see Section 11.1.1.1 for details of 
obtaining informed consent). 
Compliance with inclusion and exclusion criteria must be confirmed before allocation to IMP. The 
baseline average pain intensity score must be confirmed prior to allocation by checking the 
electronic diary, which will provide an automatic calculation. A baseline average pain intensity 
score of at least 4 on the 11-point NRS is required. 
A subject who has not met average baseline pain intensity requirements due to lack of compliance 
with the electronic diary (at least 4 average pain intensity ratings) may be rescheduled for Visit 2 
(allowed only once), with appropriate re-training to ensure compliance with use of the electronic 
diary. Subjects who do not meet eligibility criteria due to an inadequate average pain level (less 
than 4 on the NRS) will be excluded from the trial. 
Once the above evaluations have been performed, the subject will be allocated to IMP using the 
interactive response technology system and the IMP will be administered (for details, see 
Section 10.2). 
The following evaluations will be performed after the infusion: 
• 
Record vital signs. 
•

TRIAL ASSESSMENTS 
12.1 
Overview of blood sampling in this trial 
The total blood volume drawn per subject during the trial is estimated to be approximately 226 mL 
for subjects included in Treatment Period B and approximately 187 mL for subjects not included in 
Treatment Period B (unless additional blood is required for repeated assessment due to an abnormal 
laboratory value, adverse event, or technical reason such as hemolysis of the blood sample). 
Sampling times are given in the schedules of events (Section 1.6).

Collection of demographic data and other baseline characteristics 
12.2.1 
Demographic data 
Demographic data to be collected and recorded for this trial include date of signing the informed 
consent form, sex, race/ethnicity, age, height, and body mass index. 
Body mass index will be automatically calculated in the eCRF. 
12.2.2 
Prior and concomitant medication or therapies 
All medication requiring prescriptions (including oral contraceptives), over-the-counter medication 
(including herbals and vitamins), and therapies (including medical devices and therapies such as

e.g., massage or cognitive behavioral therapy) used within 3 months prior to enrollment and up to 
the end of the trial must be recorded in the eCRF. All failed CRPS medication must be added in the 
eCRF (including medications stopped before 3 months prior to enrollment). Any change in dosage, 
regimen, frequency, or route, must be recorded in the eCRF as a new entry. 
For the concomitant medication, the trade name, dose, dose unit, frequency, route, reason for use, 
start date, and stop date have to be recorded in the eCRF. 
12.2.3 
Relevant prior/concomitant disease or surgical interventions 
All medical history relevant to CRPS (including family history of CRPS) should be documented in 
the eCRF (for details, see Section 12.2.3.1). Additional medical history for the previous 3 years as 
well as medical history from prior to 3 years that may be considered relevant should also be 
documented in the eCRF. 
There is no requirement to obtain copies of medical records from treating physicians to document 
medical history. 
12.2.3.1 
Diagnosis of CRPS 
Diagnosis of CRPS according to the clinical diagnostic criteria in Table 4 must be documented at 
the Enrollment Visit upon examination of the subject. It is the absolute responsibility of the 
investigator to make the diagnosis of CRPS according to the correct diagnostic criteria. Application 
of the CRPS diagnostic criteria requires identification of an affected limb. Distal to mid-limb 
involvement (typically hand or foot), with or without proximal spread, must be present. Evidence of 
asymmetrical signs and symptoms, relative to the contralateral (less affected) limb, is a requirement 
for fulfilling the diagnostic criteria. A precise location of the CRPS, consistent with the location of 
signs and symptoms, must be documented in the eCRF. If more than 1 limb is considered to be 
affected, the trial-designated CRPS most affected-limb must be readily distinguished based on 
asymmetrical signs and symptoms, relative to the contralateral limb, and the subject must be able to 
differentiate pain in the affected limb from pain in any other affected limbs. Ongoing, 
disproportionate pain and a lack of other diagnosis that better explains the signs and symptoms must 
also be confirmed at the Enrollment Visit. 
Diagnosis of CRPS involving an atypical body part (e.g., trunk, breasts, pelvic region, lower 
back, face, shoulder, or hip) is not permitted for this trial.

(weakness, tremor, dystonia) and/or trophic changes (hair, nail, skin). 
4. There is no other diagnosis that better explains the signs and symptoms. 
IASP = International Association for the Study of Pain. 
Source: Harden et al. 2010a 
 
In accordance with procedures for validation of these criteria, symptoms will be assessed with a 
recall period “since the onset of CRPS”. Signs must be present, i.e., observed by the examiner, 
during the evaluation at the Enrollment Visit. Subjects will be examined for 8 signs (observed on 
examination, yes or no): hyperalgesia to pinprick; allodynia (light touch, deep joint pressure, 
vibration, cold, and heat); temperature asymmetry by palpation (affected side cooler or warmer than 
the contralateral side); skin color asymmetry (red, blue or pale, mottled, or scar); asymmetric 
edema; sweating asymmetry (increased or decreased on the affected side); dystrophic changes 
(nails, hair, or skin); and motor changes (tremor, dystonia, decreased AROM, or weakness). 
Medical history related to CRPS must include the following: date and description of precipitating 
event (e.g., type of trauma, surgery [including any information on whether there was a major nerve 
injury]; if no precipitating event is known, document as unknown), the specific location of CRPS, 
including the affected limb (if more than 1 limb is affected, the most painful limb as well as any 
other affected limb must be identified), the date of onset of symptoms, the date of CRPS diagnosis, 
and the type of CRPS (CRPS-I or CRPS-II). Any documentation supporting the diagnosis of CRPS, 
including any assessments used to rule out alternative diagnoses, will be retained.

Dental history 
Dental history will include the date of last dental visit; dental extractions and other invasive dental 
surgery in the past 3 months prior to the Enrollment Visit; current evidence of dental or periodontal 
disease, gum injury due to dentures, or other dental history that may pre-dispose to risk of 
medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw. 
12.2.4 
Other baseline characteristics 
12.2.4.1 
Physical examination 
Physical examination should include assessments of the general condition, skin, eyes, ears, nose and 
throat, mouth (including teeth and gums), head, neck, and thyroid, heart, lung, chest, abdomen, 
kidneys, liver, lymphatic, musculoskeletal, and neurological systems. 
Prior to allocation to treatment, any clinically relevant findings from the physical examination will 
be documented as part of the medical history. 
12.2.4.2 
Urine drugs of abuse test 
Urine samples will be provided by the subject at Visit 1 and Visit 2 (and Visit 11 for subjects going 
into Treatment Period B) for local testing for drugs of abuse using a urinary dipstick (performed at 
the site). Only test results for the following drugs of abuse will be recorded in the eCRF: 
• 
Cocaine, MDMA (3,4-methylendioxy methamphetamine, ecstasy), amphetamines, 
cannabinoids. 
Subjects who are receiving stable doses of prescribed medications containing amphetamines, 
benzodiazepines, cannabinoids, or opioids will not be excluded from the trial even if the test is 
positive. 
12.3 
Collection of efficacy data 
The following efficacy data will be collected: pain intensity, CRPS Severity Score, measurements 
of edema, DMA, PPT, AROM, PGIC, PGI-S, EQ-5D-5L, PROMIS-29 profile and the PROMIS-
EDDEP39, the 6 neuropathic pain items of the SF-MPQ-2, PCS, and PSEQ. 
For the timings of assessments, see the schedules of events (Section 1.6). 
12.3.1 
Pain intensity 
Pain intensities will be recorded in electronic diaries at home and on tablet computers maintained at 
the sites. 
12.3.1.1 
Electronic diary 
Subjects will be asked to record their average, worst, and current CRPS-related pain intensity once 
daily in the electronic diary (in the evening), using an 11-point NRS (from 0 = “no pain” to 
10 = “pain as bad as you can imagine”) starting at Visit 1 and continuing until Visit 8. Worst and 
average pain intensity will be for a 24-hour recall period. 
After Visit 8 up to Visit 17, subjects will be asked to record their average, worst, and current CRPS-
related pain intensity once weekly in the electronic diary (in the evening) using the same 11-point 
NRS and a 24-hour recall period.

Subjects will be asked to record their average CRPS-related pain intensity for the previous 24 hours. 
The subjects will be asked to answer the following question: 
“Please rate your pain by selecting the one number that best describes your pain on average during 
the last 24 hours.” 
Worst pain assessment 
Subjects will be asked to record their worst CRPS-related pain intensity for the previous 24 hours. 
The subjects will be asked to answer the following question: 
“Please rate your pain by selecting the one number that best describes your pain at its worst during 
the last 24 hours.” 
Current pain assessment 
Subjects will be asked to record their current CRPS-related pain intensity. 
The subjects will be asked to answer the following question: 
“Please rate your pain by selecting the one number that best describes how much pain you have 
right now.” 
12.3.1.2 
Site tablet computer 
At the visits indicated in the schedules of events (Section 1.6), the subjects will be asked to record 
the pain intensity ratings for average, worst, and current CRPS-related pain directly on a tablet 
computer maintained at the site. Worst and average pain intensity ratings in this case will be based 
on a 24-hour recall period.

Current pain assessment 
Subjects will be asked to record their current CRPS-related pain intensity. 
The subjects will be asked to answer the following question: 
“Please rate your pain by selecting the one number that best describes how much pain you have 
right now.” 
12.3.1.3 
Pain intensity question of the PROMIS-29 profile 
At Visit 11, the pain intensity question (question number 29, GLOBAL07) of the PROMIS-29 
profile (Section 18.3.4) will be used as 1 of the criteria for continuing into Treatment Period B. At 
Visit 9 and Visit 10 the PROMIS pain question will be used to monitor efficacy. 
The subjects will be asked to answer the following question on an 11-point NRS (0 = no pain, 
10 = worst imaginable pain): 
“In the past 7 days, how would you rate your pain on average?” 
12.3.2 
Dynamic mechanical allodynia 
Allodynia is defined as pain in response to a non-nociceptive stimulus. In cases of mechanical 
allodynia, even gentle mechanical stimuli such as a slight bending of hairs can evoke pain. The 
DMA is assessed by the investigator, documented in the source data, and transferred to the eCRF. A 
Q-tip fixed to an elastic strip exerting a force of 100 mN (Ziegler et al. 1999) is applied in a single 
sweeping motion (1 cm to 2 cm length) on the skin of the affected limb. 
The subjects are asked to judge the stimulus intensity on an NRS (0 to 10), with “0” in this case 
meaning “no pain”, while each “pricking”, “stinging” or “burning” sensation is defined as a painful 
sensation, being evaluated by giving a value greater than “0”. A value of “10” corresponds to the 
individual maximum pain imaginable. The tactile stimulus is tested 5 times. If the subject reports a 
value of “10”, then no further test will be performed for the respective visit. The degree of pain 
sensitivity is calculated by the geometrical mean of the pain ratings given (Maier et al. 2010). 
12.3.3 
Pressure pain threshold 
The PPT is assessing the level of pressure causing deep joint or muscle pain. In CRPS subjects, 
light, normally non-painful pressure applied at joints or muscles causes pain in the deep somatic 
tissues (Baron et al. 2010). The PPT is assessed by the investigator on both affected and unaffected 
limbs by using a pressure algometer (contact area 1 cm2), documented in the source data, and 
transferred to the eCRF. The threshold for pressure induced pain is measured on the thenar 
muscle/abductor hallucis muscle, starting with the unaffected limb. Measurements are repeated in 
3 series of slowly increasing stimulus intensities (at a rate of about 50 kPa/s). The subject must not 
be able to look at the readings during the measurement. Data are averaged for the each of the 
3 series of measurements. For the final PPT, the arithmetic mean of all 3 consecutive measurements 
is calculated (Rolke et al. 2010 and Mainka et al. 2014). 
The ratio of the thresholds of the affected and the unaffected limb will be calculated.

12.3.4 
Edema measurement 
Edema will be measured by the investigator with measurement tape using the figure-of-eight 
method at both the affected and contralateral unaffected limb for all subjects having edema as a 
positive CRPS sign at baseline (based on clinical judgment; sign “Asymmetric edema” ticked “yes” 
on the CRPS Severity Score at Visit 2) and will be documented in the source data and transferred to 
the eCRF. At each visit, first the unaffected limb has to be measured to accustom the subject to the 
measurements, followed by the affected limb. Each measurement of the limbs will be performed 
3 times. The average of the 3 measurements will be used for further analysis. 
The ratio of the averages of the affected and the unaffected limb will be calculated. 
Detailed instructions and training describing in depth the figure-of-eight method for measuring 
edema in both hands or feet will be provided to the investigators. 
12.3.5 
Active range of motion measurement 
The AROM is the range of movement through which a subject can actively (without assistance) 
move a joint using the adjacent muscles. Measuring the AROM does not involve any external 
stimulation; the subject is not touched and decides how far to move. The magnitude of the AROM 
can be influenced by other factors not directly related to the joint, such as the subject’s motivation. 
In order to maximize the reliability of measurements, a rigid measurement protocol and valid and 
reliable measurement instruments were developed. Detailed instructions and in depth training will 
be provided to the investigators. 
The subject has to be instructed not to exceed the pain limit in order to avoid increase of 
complaints, which could influence future measurements and treatment outcome.  
For subjects having decreased AROM at baseline (diagnosed based on clinical judgment; sign 
“Motor abnormalities” ticked “yes”, sub-category “decreased AROM” ticked “yes” on the CRPS 
Severity Score at baseline [Visit 2]), both affected and unaffected limbs will be measured using a 
goniometer, first the unaffected extremity to accustom the patient to the measurements, followed by 
the affected extremity. The AROM is measured only during active flexion and extension (i.e., 
sagittal plane, transversal axis) of the wrist or ankle, respectively. 
The AROM in each of the unaffected and affected limbs will be measured 2 times. The results of 
both measurements will be documented; only the best performance of the 2 repetitions will be used 
for further analysis. 
The ratio of the AROM of the affected and the unaffected limb will be calculated. 
12.3.6 
CRPS Severity Score 
Signs and symptoms of CRPS (Section 18.4) will be assessed by the investigator and recorded 
using the tablet computers maintained at the sites. Subjects will be queried on 8 self-reported 
symptoms (queried yes or no): continuous, disproportionate pain; allodynia and/or hyperalgesia; 
temperature asymmetry; color asymmetry; sweating asymmetry; edema; dystrophic changes; and 
motor abnormalities. Symptoms will be assessed based on a recall period of 48 hours. Subjects will 
be examined for 8 signs (observed on examination, yes or no): hyperalgesia to pinprick; allodynia; 
temperature asymmetry by palpation; skin color asymmetry; sweating asymmetry; asymmetric 
edema; dystrophic changes; and motor changes (please refer to Section 12.2.3.1 and Section 18.4

for the description of the signs and symptoms). Each sign or symptom is assigned a dichotomous 
value (1 = presence; 0 = absence). The resulting score ranges from 0 to 16, with higher scores 
indicating greater CRPS severity (Harden et al. 2010b). 
12.3.7 
Patient Global Impression of Change 
The PGIC will be assessed using the tablet computers maintained at the sites. The 7-point PGIC is a 
complementary assessment of analgesic efficacy. Subjects respond to the question “Since the start 
of the trial, my overall status is:” with 1 of 7 possible responses (very much improved, much 
improved, minimally improved, no change, minimally worse, much worse, very much worse; 
Section 18.3.1). A response of very much improved or much improved is generally regarded as a 
clinically important outcome. As “change” is conceptually inherent in the questionnaire, no baseline 
assessment can be performed. 
12.3.8 
Patient Global Impression of Severity 
The PGI-S will be assessed by the subjects using the tablet computers maintained at the sites. The 
5-point PGI-S is a 1-item questionnaire designed to assess a patient’s impression of disease 
severity. 
Subjects are asked to best describe their CRPS symptoms over the past week with 1 of 5 possible 
responses (none, mild, moderate, severe, very severe; Section 18.3.2). 
12.3.9 
EuroQoL-5 dimension-5 level 
The EQ-5D-5L health questionnaire (Section 18.3.3) will be completed by all subjects using the 
tablet computers maintained at the sites. The EQ-5D-5L has 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual 
activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Each of the 5 dimensions has 5 possible levels: 
no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems, and extreme problems. An 
index (total) score will be calculated from data from all 5 dimensions using an index value 
calculator that can be downloaded from the EuroQol website. For the US general population, the 
possible EQ-5D-5L index scores range from -0.109 (i.e., 55555) to 1.0 (i.e., 11111) on a scale 
where 0.0 = death and 1.0 = perfect health. The EQ-VAS ranges from 0 (worst imaginable health) 
to 100 (best imaginable health). A higher score represents better overall health. 
12.3.10 
PROMIS-29 profile and the PROMIS-EDDEP39 
The PROMIS-29 profile (Section 18.3.4) assesses 7 domains, i.e., depression, anxiety, physical 
function, pain interference, fatigue, sleep disturbance, and ability to participate in social roles and 
activities, each with 4 questions and a recall period of 7 days (Cella et al. 2007). 
The PROMIS-29 Profile version 2.0 will be completed by the subjects using the tablet computers 
maintained at the sites. 
In addition, suicidal ideation will be assessed using the PROMIS-EDDEP39 (Section 18.3.5), which 
is Question EDDEP39 of the PROMIS Item Bank version 1.0 – Emotional Distress – Depression 
(Pilkonis et al. 2011).

Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire 2: 6 neuropathic pain items 
The SF-MPQ-2 is a single measure of the major symptoms of both neuropathic and non-
neuropathic pain. The pain qualities will be assessed using the 6 neuropathic items from the 
SF-MPQ-2 (Section 18.3.6). 
Subjects will be asked to consider and report only the pain related to the CRPS when completing 
the instrument using the tablet computers maintained at the sites. 
12.3.12 
Pain Catastrophizing Scale 
The PCS (Section 18.3.7) will be used as a measurement tool to capture pain catastrophizing; the 
scale will be completed by the subjects using the tablet computers maintained at the sites. 
12.3.13 
Pain Self Efficacy Questionnaire 
The PSEQ (Section 18.3.8) will be used to capture pain self-efficacy and is completed by the 
subjects using the tablet computers maintained at the sites. 
12.4 
Collection of safety data 
The following safety data will be collected: adverse events, vital signs, 12-lead ECGs, safety 
laboratory parameters, physical examination findings, and urine ß-HCG pregnancy test outcome. 
For the timings of assessments, see the schedules of events (Section 1.6). 
Clinically relevant abnormal values (investigator’s judgment) must be recorded as adverse events. 
12.4.1 
Adverse events 
Adverse events will be documented from the time of enrollment (i.e., the time the informed consent 
form is signed) up to the time of the last protocol scheduled contact, i.e., date of last visit/contact 
(can be a phone call, e.g., in case of withdrawal).  
Definition of adverse events 
An adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence in a subject enrolled in a clinical trial. An 
adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (e.g., an abnormal laboratory 
finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or 
not considered related to the medicinal product. 
Pre-existing diseases or conditions occurring before enrollment are not considered to be adverse 
events unless there is an untoward change in intensity, frequency, or quality after enrollment.  
Lack of efficacy, as such, is not considered to be an adverse event while its consequences (e.g., 
deterioration of the treated disease) are considered to be an adverse event. 
A newly diagnosed pregnancy of an enrolled female subject will not be considered an adverse event 
itself unless it is suspected that the trial treatment interacted with a contraceptive method. In this 
case, the pregnancy will be considered an adverse event. A congenital anomaly as an outcome of a 
pregnancy will be considered a serious adverse event (SAE). 
All newly diagnosed pregnancies of enrolled female subjects must be reported to the sponsor’s 
Drug Safety Department within 24 hours after first knowledge. These pregnancies will be

Protocol KF7013-04 including Amendment 01

documented using a pregnancy reporting form with all available information provided and followed 
up to determine the outcome post parturition. 
For newly diagnosed pregnancies of partners of enrolled subjects, a reasonable attempt (i.e., due 
diligence) must be made to report the pregnancy to the sponsor’s Drug Safety Department within 
24 hours after first knowledge. 
Definition of serious adverse events 
An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: 
• 
Results in death. 
• 
Is life-threatening. 
• 
Requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization. 
• 
Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity. 
• 
Is a congenital anomaly/birth defect. 
• 
Is considered a clinically important medical event. The medical concepts included in 
Section 18.1 should be taken into account when applying this seriousness criterion. 
An elective hospital admission, e.g., for pre-planned surgery, will not be considered an SAE if 
documented at enrollment. Short-lasting (<24 hours) hospital admissions, e.g., for clinical check-
ups, not meeting any of the other above mentioned criteria will also not be considered SAEs. 
Special procedures for serious adverse events 
If SAEs occur that are not tolerable, the investigator will decide whether to stop the trial 
participation and/or treatment of the subject. For further details, see Section 9.3. 
Expectedness of adverse events 
Expectedness will be assessed by the sponsor. 
An unexpected adverse event is one where the nature or intensity is not consistent with the 
information in the neridronic acid investigator’s brochure. 
Furthermore, reports that add significant information about the specificity or severity of a known, 
already documented adverse reaction constitute unexpected adverse events. For example, an 
adverse event more specific or more severe than expected would be considered “unexpected”. 
Definition of adverse drug reactions 
An adverse drug reaction is any untoward and unintended response to an IMP or a medicinal 
product related to any dose administered. 
A list of adverse drug reactions seen for the IMP is given in the reference safety information

Documentation of adverse events  
The subjects will be questioned about possible adverse events with non-leading questions before 
administration of the IMP and at regular intervals thereafter as defined in Section 1.6. 
All adverse events reported spontaneously by subjects at any time point will also be documented.

All adverse events will be documented in the eCRF with the following information where 
appropriate: 
• 
Description (adverse event reported term). 
• 
Start date/time. 
• 
End date/time or continuation. 
• 
Whether adverse event was serious. 
• 
Intensity. 
• 
Outcome. 
• 
Action taken with IMP. 
• 
Countermeasures. 
• 
Causal relationship to IMP. 
Definition of intensity  
The clinical intensity of an adverse event will be classified as: 
Mild: 
Signs and symptoms that can be easily tolerated. Symptoms can be ignored and disappear when the 
subject is distracted. 
Moderate: 
Symptoms cause discomfort but are tolerable; they cannot be ignored and affect concentration. 
Severe: 
Symptoms which affect usual daily activity. 
 
For adverse events where the intensity changes over time, the maximum intensity observed during 
the whole duration of the adverse event will be documented.  
Adverse events occurring in the Enrollment Period but before first administration of an IMP and 
worsening on or after IMP administration will be documented as new adverse events. 
Definition of outcome at the time of last observation 
The outcome at the time of last observation will be classified as: 
• 
Recovered/Resolved. 
• 
Recovering/Resolving. 
• 
Not recovered/Not resolved. 
• 
Recovered/Resolved with sequelae. 
• 
Fatal. 
• 
Unknown (unknown should only be used, if at the time of the last visit for a subject in a 
trial, the outcome of the adverse event is unknown to the investigator, e.g., because the 
subject is lost to follow-up). 
Definition of countermeasures  
“Countermeasures” will be defined as: 
None: 
No countermeasure given. 
Newly started 
medication: 
A newly started medication or change in dose or route of application of a medication due 
to the adverse event (to be listed on the prior/concomitant medication page) that is used

as a countermeasure. 
Trial discontinuation: 
It was necessary to discontinue the subject from the trial due to the adverse event. 
Other: 
All other countermeasures, e.g., physical therapy, surgery. 
 
Except for none, multiple countermeasures for 1 adverse event can be recorded. 
Classification of action taken with IMP when an adverse event occurs: 
• 
Dose not changed. 
• 
Drug interrupted. 
• 
Drug withdrawn. 
• 
Not applicable. 
• 
Unknown. 
Classification of causation 
The causal relationship of an adverse event to IMP will be classified using the following 
terminology. The given criteria for each term are for consideration and are neither exhaustive nor 
required to be fulfilled in total for the selection of the respective term: 
Terms for classification 
of causation 
Criteria for the selection of causality classification terms 
Conditional/ 
Unclassified: 
Additional data for a proper assessment are under examination. 
Unassessable/ 
Unclassifiable: 
The available data cannot be judged because information is insufficient or contradictory, 
and cannot be supplemented or verified.  
Not related: 
Data with sufficient evidence to accept that there is no causal relationship to IMP 
administration (i.e., there is no temporal relationship to IMP administration or proved 
other cause).  
Unlikely: 
Data without sufficient evidence to accept that there is no causal relationship to IMP 
administration, but also with no evidence or argument to suggest a causal relationship 
(e.g., the temporal relationship to IMP administration makes a causal relationship 
improbable, and other drugs, chemicals, or underlying disease[s] provide plausible 
explanations).  
Possible: 
Data with limited evidence or argument to suggest a causal relationship (e.g., there is a 
reasonable time sequence to administration of the drug, but the adverse event could also 
be explained by concurrent disease[s] or other drugs or chemicals. Information on drug 
withdrawal may be lacking or unclear).  
Probable/likely: 
Data with sufficient evidence or argument to suggest a causal relationship (e.g., there is a 
reasonable time sequence to administration of the drug, the adverse event is unlikely to 
be attributed to concurrent disease[s] or other drugs or chemicals, and a clinically 
reasonable response on withdrawal [dechallenge]). 
Certain: 
Data with clear evidence for a causal relationship (i.e., a clinical event, including 
laboratory test abnormality, occurs in a plausible time relationship to drug administration, 
and it cannot be explained by concurrent disease or other drugs or chemicals. The 
response to withdrawal of the drug [dechallenge] should be well defined and clinically 
plausible, using a satisfactory rechallenge procedure if appropriate).

Follow-up of subjects with an adverse event 
Any adverse event or clinically relevant abnormal laboratory or vital sign result will be followed 
until it reaches a satisfactory resolution, or becomes stable, or clinical judgment indicates that 
further evaluation is not warranted.  
Notification of serious adverse events 
All SAEs (including death, irrespective of cause during the trial, regardless of their relationship to 
IMP, must be reported as soon as possible but no later than 24 hours after learning of the event. 
Before any trial-related procedure is performed, the trial site must be provided with contact details 
at the sponsor’s Drug Safety Department for this reporting. 
The investigator must submit a report, called a safety reporting form, which includes a description 
of the event, the therapy instituted, and trial procedures. The following information should be 
communicated with the first notification of an SAE: 
• 
Trial identifier. 
• 
Subject’s identifier. 
• 
Subject’s date/year of birth (if available, see local data protection requirements) or age (at 
adverse event onset). 
• 
Subject’s sex. 
• 
First administration of IMP (date and time, if available). 
• 
Last administration of IMP (date and time, if available). 
• 
Adverse event verbatim term (specific diagnosis, if possible). 
• 
Adverse event onset (date and time, if available). 
• 
A brief description of the event, the course, and the countermeasures taken. 
• 
Intensity. 
• 
Seriousness criterion. 
• 
Outcome. 
• 
Concomitant medication at onset of the event and whether one of the concomitant 
medications is also suspected to have caused the event. 
• 
Relevant history/pre-existing medical conditions. 
• 
Investigator’s assessment of the relationship to IMPs. 
• 
Whether and when blinding was broken. 
All additional information concerning the adverse event until trial termination or definite outcome 
must be communicated per follow-up report without delay. 
The immediate and follow-up reports must only identify the subjects using the unique subject 
identifier.  
The investigator must comply with applicable regulatory requirement(s) related to the reporting of 
SAEs to the regulatory authorities and the relevant IECs or IRBs.

Notification of serious adverse reactions 
All suspected adverse drug reactions related to an IMP (the tested drugs and comparators) that 
occur in this trial, and that are both unexpected and serious are subject to expedited reporting. 
Once a year throughout the clinical trial, the sponsor will provide the member states in whose 
territory the clinical trial is being conducted and the IECs with a listing of all suspected unexpected 
serious adverse reactions which have occurred over this period and a report of the subjects’ safety. 
In addition, the sponsor will ensure that all reportable events are reported in compliance with 
applicable international and national regulatory requirements. 
12.4.2 
Vital signs 
The vital signs comprise systolic and diastolic blood pressure, pulse rate, and respiratory rate. 
Vital signs will be measured in a sitting position after resting for 10 minutes. While resting, the 
subject should not receive anything to drink or eat. 
12.4.3 
Body weight 
Body weight will be measured in light clothes. 
12.4.4 
Twelve-lead electrocardiogram 
All ECGs will be recorded in triplicate (3 readings in rapid succession no more than 2 minutes 
apart). 
The times at which the ECGs were recorded will be documented in the eCRF. 
The 12-lead ECG recordings will be performed after the subjects have been in a supine position for 
at least 10 minutes in a quiet environment without exciting distractions (e.g., television, video 
games). The recording should include a minimum of 5 heart cycles (beats). 
Electrocardiographic parameters (heart rate; P, QRS, and T waves; PR, QT, and QTcF intervals), 
and waveform morphology will be evaluated by the investigator. The investigator will be 
responsible for determining the clinical relevance of any abnormality and deciding whether a 
subject can continue in the trial with the observed findings. The investigator will be required to 
comment any abnormalities with reference to any possible clinical relevance. 
A central ECG reading facility will provide the results of the ECG interval measurements and an 
assessment and interpretation of any waveform abnormalities and other findings (e.g., conduction 
defects). The investigator will be informed of the results and must evaluate them in the context of 
the subject’s characteristics. The investigator will be required to comment any abnormalities with 
reference to any possible clinical relevance. The investigator will also make a decision whether the 
subject should continue in the trial or whether further ECGs or investigations should be performed 
to clarify and ensure the safety of the subject. 
Electrocardiograms with poor quality tracings, artifacts or doubtful findings should be repeated, if 
possible. 
For decisions relating to subject exclusion or discontinuation of IMP, the investigator’s initial 
evaluation will be used.

The evaluation from the central ECG reading facility will be used for the assessment and analysis of 
ECG parameters and for evaluation of any tendency regarding changes in ECG parameters for the 
final integrated clinical trial report. 
The ECG measurements and the findings, if any, from the central ECG evaluation together with the 
overall assessment of the clinical relevance by the investigator will be captured in the database. 
The original ECG recordings will be kept at the trial site. 
The ECG files including the waveforms and caliper placements will be provided electronically as 
xml files to the sponsor at the end of the trial. 
12.4.5 
Safety laboratory 
Safety laboratory tests (except for urine dipsticks for urinalysis, semi-quantitative urinary ACR 
determination, urine drug testing, and urine pregnancy testing) will be performed by a central 
laboratory. 
The use of any laboratory facility other than the designated laboratory for safety laboratory tests 
required by this protocol is not allowed. The only exception is in the case of an emergency where 
the investigator requires the results quickly. 
A table of the reference ranges for each of the laboratory parameters measured with a description of 
the methods will be provided by the laboratory before the trial start and is to be filed in the 
investigator’s site file. 
Changes in the reference ranges or in the methodology during the course of the trial are to be 
communicated by the laboratory to the sponsor who will inform the investigators. 
The trial sites will be provided with a manual by the laboratory specifying the specimen collection, 
preparation, packaging, and transport of all safety laboratory tests required by this protocol. 
Throughout the clinical part of the trial, the investigator must provide a comment in the eCRF 
regarding the clinical relevance of any laboratory values outside the sponsor-defined alert range. 
Results for the laboratory parameters defined below will be sent electronically to the trial site and 
transferred electronically to the data management provider where these electronic data will be 
integrated into the clinical database. The clinical database will be transferred to the sponsor. 
The following tests will be performed:

The number of samples and volume per sample collected from each subject for safety laboratory 
analysis are given in Table 3. 
If laboratory values of liver parameters exceed pre-defined ranges (a combination of alanine 
aminotransferase and/or aspartate aminotransferase greater than 3 times the upper limit of normal 
and/or bilirubin greater than 2 times the upper limit of normal) after first application of IMP, a 
standard algorithm to detect and follow-up on potential severe cases of drug-induced liver injury 
will be applied (see Section 18.2).

number (and, if appropriate, using a bar code). They will not carry any personal identifier (i.e., 
single-coded data or double-coded data as described in ICH topic E15 2008). 
The blood samples will initially be sent from the trial site to a temporary storage site qualified by 
the sponsor for short-term storage. The samples will then be transferred in batches from the 
temporary storage site to the bio-banking facility qualified by the sponsor for long-term storage. 
Following extraction of DNA from the pharmacogenetic blood samples, the DNA will be stored in 
appropriate containers and labeled with a trial code and subject number (and, if appropriate, using a 
bar code). For omics, the plasma samples will be stored. 
They will not carry any personal identifier (i.e., they will be double-coded data as described in ICH 
topic E15 2008). The DNA samples will be stored at the external bio-banking facility for up to 
15 years after completion of the trial (defined as the date of approval of the integrated clinical trial 
report in the sponsor’s document management system) to allow for pharmacogenetic testing. After 
15 years of storage, the DNA and plasma samples will be destroyed. 
12.8 
Collection of health economics outcome and work productivity data 
(US sites only) 
12.8.1 
Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire: CRPS 
History of CRPS including impairments of personal activities, both work-related (e.g., 
absenteeism/presenteeism) and non-work-related will be captured using the WPAI: CRPS 
(Section 18.3.9). 
The WPAI questionnaire is an instrument to measure impairments in both paid work and unpaid 
work (Reilly et al. 1993). It measures absenteeism and presenteeism as well as the impairments in 
unpaid activity because of health problems during the past 7 days. 
The WPAI: CRPS will be assessed using the tablet computers maintained at the sites at the time 
points given in the schedules of events (Section 1.6). 
12.8.2 
Medical resources utilization and health economics data collection 
Medical resource utilization and health economics data will include information regarding 
hospitalization, emergency room visits, nursing home stays, health care provider (other than trial 
investigator) contacts, home services, home help, and special devices used due to CRPS-related 
symptoms and pain. Data will be collected at the time points given in the schedules of events 
(Section 1.6). 
The questions to be asked by the investigator are provided in Section 18.5. 
The responses to the questions will be documented on paper and stored as part of the source data. 
Data will be transcribed into the eCRF by the investigator or delegated site staff.

12.9 
Appropriateness of measurements 
Efficacy assessments 
As CRPS is a rare, poorly understood chronic pain syndrome condition with very few adequate and 
well-controlled trials having been conducted, the proposed outcome measures for this trial have not 
been formally validated in this population. 
The efficacy assessments chosen for this trial reflect the core outcome measures for CRPS clinical 
trials (COMPACT). These were developed by an international consortium of patients, clinicians, 
researchers and industry representatives to develop and agree on a minimum core set of 
standardized outcome measures for use in future CRPS clinical trials in an adult population (Grieve 
et al. 2017). The key concepts identified were pain, disease severity, participation and physical 
function, emotional and psychological function, self-efficacy, catastrophizing and PGIC. The final 
core measurement set included the optimum generic or condition-specific patient-reported 
questionnaire outcome measures, which captured the essence of each domain. 
Numerical rating scale for pain 
The unidimensional 11-point NRS is a recommended method of assessing pain intensity in subjects 
with various types of chronic pain (CPMP/EWP/252/03 Rev. 1). 
On the basis of IMMPACT recommendations for core outcome measures in chronic pain studies, 
the 11-point NRS was chosen as the primary efficacy outcome measure (Dworkin et al. 2005). The 
NRS is a standard, widely used tool for the assessment of pain (Dworkin et al. 2008). Average, 
worst, and current pain intensity will be assessed. 
For subject-reported outcomes captured electronically, the system will ensure data integrity by 
allowing only subjects to enter the data (electronic diary, tablet computer at the site). Electronic 
subject-reported outcome systems ensure that neither sponsors nor investigators can access and 
change the data, and subjects cannot enter data retrospectively or in advance, i.e., the timing of 
entries is controlled and compliance is enforced. Additionally, no data are lost because of illegible 
handwriting. As required by the FDA Guidance for Industry 2009 on the use of subject-reported 
outcomes, the database for the electronic patient-reported outcomes uses a regular back-up and does 
not allow access to unblinded data. 
Subjects report little difficulty with electronic patient-reported outcome system procedures and are 
not unduly burdened by their use resulting in good reporting compliance (Stone et al. 2004). 
Dynamic mechanical allodynia 
Allodynia is a positive sign identified by physicians in about 70% of CRPS patients and a self-
reported symptom by almost 90% of the CRPS patients (Harden et al. 2010b). The DMA 
measurement is part of the Quantitative Sensory Testing protocol developed by the German 
Research Network on Neuropathic Pain as a comprehensive battery of sensory tests to quantify 
functions of the human somatosensory nervous system (Maier et al. 2010). 
Pressure pain threshold 
The PPT aims to quantify the mechanical deep somatic hyperalgesia in CRPS patients. Many 
patients with CRPS report pain in the depth of the limb rather than superficially in the skin, pointing 

Grünenthal 
Confidential 
Protocol KF7013-04 including Amendment 01 
Page 94 of 168 
DMS version 2.0 
22 Nov 2018 
 
 
to the importance of deep somatic structures such as bones, joints, tendons, and muscles in the 
pathophysiology of CRPS (Mainka et al. 2014). 
Pain localized in the deep tissues occurs frequently in CRPS. In addition, hyperalgesia to blunt 
pressure over muscles is common in CRPS. The PPT over the thenar muscle provides 77% 
sensitivity and 63% specificity in identifying a patient with CRPS (cutoff 293 kPa; Mainka et al. 
2014). 
Edema measurement - figure-of-eight method 
Edema is a sign identified by physicians in about 65% of CRPS patients and a self-reported 
symptom by almost 90% of the CRPS patients (Harden et al. 2010b). Quantifications of edema are 
used to establish a baseline at the initial examination and to document changes in subject status. The 
figure-of-eight is a method of measuring edema by means of measuring tape and pre-defined 
anatomical landmarks. It demonstrated high intra-rater reliability, inter-rater reliability, and 
concurrent validity (Pellecchia 2003, Leard et al. 2004, dos Reis et al. 2004). 
Active range of motion - goniometry 
Decreased AROM is a sign identified by physicians in and a self-reported symptom by about 86% 
of CRPS patients (Harden et al. 2010b). The AROM is measured using an universal hand-held 
goniometer, based on the guidance recommended by the American Medical Association guidelines 
and by the American Society of Hand Therapists’ clinical assessment recommendations. The 
AROM was applied for subjects with CRPS by Perez et al. 2003 and Oerlemans et al. 1998. 
Possible threats to the reliability of the AROM measurements (more than one rater, [in]experience 
of the rater [unstructured] measurement protocols) have to be controlled for by using a rigid 
measurement protocol, valid and reliable measurement instruments, and, where possible, the same 
rater performing the initial and subsequent measurements for 1 subject (Perez et al. 2003). 
CRPS Severity Score 
The CRPS Severity Score has been shown to discriminate well between CRPS and non-CRPS 
patients and displayed strong associations with dichotomous CRPS diagnoses using both IASP 
diagnostic criteria and proposed revised criteria (Harden et al. 2010b). A higher CRPS Severity 
Score was associated with significantly higher clinical pain intensity, distress, and functional 
impairments, as well as greater bilateral temperature asymmetry and thermal perception 
abnormalities. Changes in the CRPS Severity Score show a strong correlation to changes seen in 
measures for depression and pain scores (Sayyad et al. 2011). 
The following outcome measures selected for this trial were based on clinical outcome measures 
used in interventional trials in more common chronic pain conditions. 
Patient Global Impression of Change 
The 7-point PGIC is a subject-reported outcome measure tied to the conceptual framework of 
overall improvement. It is a recommended and responsive outcome domain for pain-related clinical 
trials (Dworkin et al. 2005, Farrar et al. 2001). 

Grünenthal

DMS version 2.0

Patient Global Impression of Severity 
The PGI-S is a global index that may be used to rate the severity of a specific condition (a single-
state scale). It is a simple, direct, easy-to-use scale that is intuitively understandable to clinicians 
(Yalcin et al. 2003). 
EuroQol-5 dimension-5 level 
The EQ-5D-5L health questionnaire is a generic health-related quality of life instrument developed 
by a multidisciplinary team of European researchers. It provides a simple descriptive profile and a 
single index value that can be used in the clinical and economic evaluation of health care and in 
population health surveys to assess health outcome from a wide variety of interventions. The EQ-
5D-5L is widely used in different countries by clinical researchers in a variety of therapeutic areas. 
PROMIS-29 profile 
The PROMIS is an existing item bank of patient-reported outcome measures (Cella et al. 2007). It is 
a National Institute of Health (United States of America) funded system, which provides 
psychometrically sound and validated patient-reported outcome measures. These can be used in a 
wide range of chronic conditions. The PROMIS is comprised of calibrated item banks to measure 
diverse health concepts such as pain, physical function and depression presented for each domain as 
individual items and/or instruments of various lengths. In addition, PROMIS includes several 
collections of items, termed profiles, which measure multiple domains. 
The PROMIS items can be compared directly with many standard instruments currently employed 
in clinical trials, such as the 36-item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) or Brief Pain Inventory 
(Choi et al. 2012). 
The PROMIS-29 profile is recommended in COMPACT as a measurement tool for core outcome 
domains of depression, anxiety, physical function, pain interference, fatigue, sleep, and social 
participation, as well as an additional outcome measure for pain intensity (Grieve et al. 2017). For 
assessing the suicidal ideation, COMPACT recommends the supplementary use of the PROMIS-
EDDEP39. 
Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire 2: 6 neuropathic items 
The SF-MPQ-2 is a single measure of the major symptoms of both neuropathic and non-
neuropathic pain. It has excellent reliability and validity, and the results of both exploratory and 
confirmatory factor analyses provided support for 4 readily interpretable subscales: continuous pain, 
intermittent pain, predominantly neuropathic pain, and affective descriptors (Dworkin et al. 2009). 
The COMPACT consortium recommends the assessment of pain qualities using the 6 neuropathic 
items from the SF-MPQ-2 as these were considered to capture the essential qualities with minimum 
patient burden (Grieve et al. 2017). 
Pain Catastrophizing Scale 
Trials in non-CRPS populations indicate catastrophizing is a prospective predictor of negative pain 
outcomes. The COMPACT consortium recommends the PCS be used to capture pain 
catastrophizing (Sullivan et al. 1995): a score of greater than 30 is thought to represent a 
problematic level of catastrophic thinking (Sullivan et al. 2009). Bean et al. (2016) reported the 
average PCS score at baseline was 22.0 in their sample of 66 patients diagnosed with CRPS within 
the previous 12 weeks, but underwent significant reduction to a mean score of 13.4 by 6 months as

treatment progressed (p<0.001). This suggests pain catastrophizing as an important outcome and the 
PCS as a sensitive measurement tool. 
Pain Self Efficacy Questionnaire 
The PSEQ will be used to capture pain self-efficacy. The respondent considers how confident they 
are performing each activity, while taking their pain into account. This provides more clinically 
useful data than asking about performing an activity in isolation (Nicholas 2007). The accumulated 
evidence from a number of published trials and a conﬁrmatory analysis with a large cohort of 
heterogeneous chronic pain patients attending a pain management program provide support for the 
original psychometric properties of the PSEQ developed with a sample of chronic low back pain 
patients (Nicholas 2007). 
Pharmacodynamic assessments 
Bone turnover markers 
The bone biomarkers CTX (for resorption) and BAP and PINP (for bone formation) have been 
selected in accordance with recommendations for the selection of these particular biomarkers in 
other bone diseases, including osteoporosis (Wheater et al. 2013; Vasikaran et al. 2011). Disordered 
bone metabolism has been suspected in CRPS based on abnormalities observed on imaging (x-rays, 
bone densitometry and, in particular, bone scintigraphy using radiolabeled bisphosphonates). The 
selected markers are known to be responsive to and associated with the mechanism of action of 
bisphosphonates. 
Markers for disease severity or progression of CRPS 
Soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R) 
Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is a cytokine crucially important in regulating activation, proliferation, and 
survival of different T-cell subsets. This effect of IL-2 is mediated through the IL-2 receptor which 
consists of the common γ-chain (CD132), a β-chain (CD122), and an α-chain (CD25). CD25 is 
strongly expressed on activated T-cells, which also secrete this molecule as a soluble variant 
(referred to as soluble IL-2 receptor; sIL-2R) from the cell membrane into the circulation. 
According to Bharwani et al. 2017, plasma sIL-2R levels are significantly elevated in CRPS 
patients, indicating an increased T-cell activity in CRPS. This finding could point towards a T-cell-
mediated inflammatory process in CRPS and sIL-2R could be a potential new marker to determine 
inflammatory disease activity in CRPS. 
Health economics outcome and work productivity data collection 
Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire: CRPS 
The WPAI questionnaire is a well validated instrument to measure impairments in work and 
activities. It has been validated to quantify work impairments for numerous diseases such as asthma, 
psoriasis, irritable bowel syndrome, ankylosing spondylitis, Crohn’s disease, chronic non-malignant 
pain, low back pain, and neuropathic pain. In addition, the WPAI questionnaire has been used to 
compare work impairments between treatment groups in clinical trials or between subjects with 
different disease severity levels.

Medical resource utilization and health economics data 
The data collected by means of this exploratory assessment will support determining the type and 
frequency of healthcare services used by CRPS patients. This information, correlated with 
corresponding costs, may be used in developing an evidence-based economic model. 
12.10 
Compliance 
Compliance is the adherence to all requirements of the trial protocol. 
Trial site compliance will be assured by the implementation of a quality system and the 
performance of a combination of trial site visits, training, and monitoring visits. Non-compliance 
should lead to prompt action by the sponsor to secure compliance. 
Compliance of the subjects to record their pain intensity assessments in the electronic diary will be 
checked by the investigator at the respective visits. A non-compliant subject may be withdrawn 
from the trial at the discretion of the investigator. 
Relevant deviations from the protocol will be documented and described in the integrated clinical 
trial report. 
13 
DOCUMENTATION OF TRIAL DATA 
The trial documentation must be adequate for the reconstruction of the trial. 
13.1 
Case report forms 
Case report forms for each subject will be provided to the investigator by the sponsor in electronic 
format to document the trial data. 
The investigator and personnel delegated the task will use eCRFs to record information required by 
the protocol. 
All eCRF entries, corrections, and alterations will be made by the investigator or other authorized 
personnel under their supervision. Entries will be checked against appropriate source documents by 
authorized sponsor representatives as deemed appropriate in the monitoring guidelines. 
The data collection will be done using a validated electronic eCRF system. The collected data will 
reside on servers of the eCRF provider. Entry, corrections and alterations of data within the system 
can only be performed by the investigator or other authorized personnel under their supervision and 
will be captured by the system’s audit trail. 
Dedicated users (e.g., the investigator, designated persons at the trial site, authorized sponsor 
representatives, and from other parties involved, e.g., data management) will be trained and receive 
access rights according to their role in the trial. All users will have access to the system and be able 
to review their data on an ongoing basis. 
After completion of the subject’s eCRF, the eCRF must be signed electronically by the investigator. 
With the investigator’s signature it is confirmed that the data in the eCRF are checked, complete, 
accurate, and in alignment with the source data. Changes to the eCRF after initial signing by the 
investigator need re-signing.

With database lock, the edit rights to the eCRFs will be removed but the investigator will retain 
access to view the eCRFs until receipt of a certified copy of all data captured for his or her subjects 
(site archive). This data will be delivered in a human readable form for retention in his or her files. 
13.2 
Subject-reported outcomes 
Subject-reported outcomes will be collected using a validated electronic patient-reported outcome 
system including audit trail (electronic diary and site tablet computer). 
The investigator will be trained on the use of the electronic patient-reported outcome system and the 
related oversight system. The oversight system will allow the investigator to review all data entered 
by the respective site subjects on an ongoing basis. 
Subjects will receive a personal electronic diary at the trial site and will be instructed on how to use 
it. 
The tablet computers will be kept at the trial site and subjects will be instructed on how to use it. 
No queries will be issued to the investigator for these data, except for clarification of subject 
identifiers and any operational issues. No queries will be raised to the subject. 
With database lock, the writing access to the electronic patient-reported outcome system will be 
removed. The investigator will receive all data captured for his or her subjects, in a human readable 
form, on read-only media for his or her files. The information will be provided to the investigator 
prior to system decommissioning. 
13.3 
External data 
Trial data not recorded in the eCRF or subject-reported outcome, but requested per protocol (e.g., 
safety laboratory data, ECG data) will be collected and validated via sponsor internal or external 
data providers. The data integration into the clinical data and respective quality control measures 
are described in the Data Management Plan. 
13.4 
Data management 
Data management will be performed by sponsor personnel or by authorized sponsor representatives. 
Documentation of the responsibilities and delegation thereof will be maintained in the trial master 
file. 
All aspects of the data management process, including data validation and query management, 
medical coding, handling of external data, data lock procedures are described in the Data 
Management Plan. Details on data validation are described in the Data Validation Plan. 
13.5 
Source data 
Source data is defined by GCP as “all information in original records and certified copies of original 
records of clinical findings, observations, or other activities in a clinical trial necessary for the 
reconstruction and evaluation of the trial. Source data are contained in source documents (original 
records or certified copies)”.

Source data comprise clinical documentation, data, and records (e.g., clinic/hospital records, clinical 
and office charts, laboratory notes, memoranda, subjects’ diaries or evaluation checklists, pharmacy 
dispensing records, recorded data from automated instruments, and data and records arising from 
departments such as the pharmacy, laboratory, and medico-technical departments) that describe or 
record the methods, conduct, or results of the trial, the factors affecting the trial, and the actions 
taken. 
All source data arising from the trial will be kept by the investigator, who must provide direct 
access for trial-related monitoring, audits, ethics committee review, and regulatory inspection. 
In certain circumstances, data may only be recorded in the trial-specific eCRF and not in other 
documents. When this occurs, the eCRF is considered to be the source document. Data expected to 
be only recorded in the eCRF are race/ethnicity and sex. 
The nature and location of all source data/clinical documentation will be identified and documented 
by the investigator to ensure that all sources of original data required to complete the eCRF are 
known to the sponsor and/or trial site personnel and are accessible for verification during trial-
related monitoring, audits, relevant IEC/IRB review, and inspections. 
For subject-reported outcomes captured directly via the electronic patient-reported outcome system, 
source data is defined as the data residing in the vendor’s database. 
13.6 
Investigator’s site file and the trial master file  
The principal investigator is responsible for the filing of all essential documents in an investigator’s 
site file. The sponsor is responsible for the timely filing of all essential documents in the trial master 
file. As applicable, these files must be available at monitoring visits and during audits or regulatory 
inspections. 
After trial completion, the principal investigator must ensure that all source data/documentation 
related to the trial is recorded, handled, and stored in a way that allows its accurate reporting, 
interpretation and verification. The principal investigator must take measures to prevent accidental 
or premature destruction of these documents. 
The principal investigator must keep the investigator’s site file, the source data/documentation 
arising from the trial according to the prescribed record retention period in the country and/or 
according to the hospital policy, but at least until informed by the sponsor that the trial-related 
records are no longer required.

14.1.7 
Analysis of efficacy data 
All primary and secondary efficacy parameters will be summarized by descriptive statistics. The 
analysis of the primary efficacy endpoint will be performed on the Full Analysis Set. All other 
efficacy endpoints will be descriptively summarized in the Full Analysis Set. Confirmatory testing 
will be performed for the primary endpoint and for selected secondary endpoints. Further analyses 
may be done, including statistical hypothesis tests, but all analyses will be exploratory in nature and 
will not provide confirmatory evidence. 
14.1.7.1 
Analysis of the primary endpoint 
See Section 1.2 for the definition of the primary endpoint. 
14.1.7.1.1 
Primary analysis 
For the primary objective of the trial, the primary estimand is the difference in means of the primary 
efficacy endpoint of 400 mg intravenous neridronic acid compared to placebo for all allocated and 
treated subjects. This treatment policy or de facto estimand measures the effect of neridronic acid 
regardless of adherence to treatment or protocol. 
The primary estimand will be estimated by the analysis of the primary efficacy endpoint for the Full 
Analysis Set. The primary analysis will fit an MMRM to the change from baseline in the average 
pain intensity scores from Week 1 to Week 12 recorded once daily in the electronic diary, including 
the covariate baseline pain intensity score, and the factors geographic region, week, treatment, and 
treatment-by-week interaction as fixed effects, and an unstructured covariance matrix to model the 
covariance structure of the repeated measurements. 
The primary efficacy analysis will be performed using the contrast, i.e., the mixed model Wald test, 
of neridronic acid 400 mg versus placebo at Week 12 of the treatment, week and treatment-by-week 
interaction term of the mixed effects model described above. Model-based parameter estimates, 
standard errors, 95% confidence intervals, and p-values will be tabulated. This analysis will be 
performed using only the observed values without imputation of missing values. 
A descriptive summary of the weekly averages and the changes from baseline will be generated by 
treatment group. Graphical displays will be used if appropriate. 
14.1.7.1.2 
Sensitivity analysis 
Additional sensitivity analyses will be performed to assess the robustness of primary analysis 
results. Sensitivity analyses will include the imputation of missing pain intensity scores using 
different PMMs. 
14.1.7.2 
Analysis of the secondary efficacy endpoints 
All secondary efficacy endpoints will be analyzed for the Full Analysis Set. 
Average pain intensity 
The change from baseline in the average pain intensity, recorded on the tablet computer, will be 
analyzed with an MMRM, including the covariate baseline pain intensity score, and the factors 
geographic region, week, treatment, and treatment-by-week interaction as fixed effects, and subject 
as random effect. An unstructured covariance matrix will be used to model the covariance structure.

The analysis will be performed using the contrast, i.e., the mixed model Wald test, of 400 mg 
neridronic acid versus placebo at Week 26 of the treatment, week and treatment-by-week 
interaction term of the mixed effects model described above. Model-based parameter estimates, 
standard errors, 95% confidence intervals, and p-values will be tabulated. This analysis will be 
performed using the observed values without imputation of missing values. 
Pain response to treatment 
Pain response to treatment, defined as an at least 30% decrease from baseline in average pain 
intensity, recorded on the tablet computer, will be derived. If a subject shows a worsening or the 
pain intensity score for the respective visit is missing then the subject will be considered a pain non-
responder for the respective visit. A logistic regression model at Week 12 and Week 26 will be 
fitted to the data, including the covariate baseline pain intensity score, and the factors geographic 
region, and treatment as fixed effects. Model-based parameter estimates, standard errors, 95% 
confidence intervals, and p-values for the odds ratio at Week 12 and Week 26 between 400 mg 
neridronic acid and placebo will be tabulated. 
The analysis of pain response to treatment will include a cumulative responder analysis at Week 12, 
Week 26, and Week 52, where responder rates will be calculated for different percentage thresholds 
for decrease from baseline in average pain intensity. 
Dynamic mechanical allodynia 
The change from baseline in the DMA will be analyzed using a similar model as for average pain 
intensity. Only subjects with allodynia at baseline, i.e., a DMA score greater than 0 on the 0 to 10 
NRS, will be included in the analysis. 
Pressure pain threshold 
The change from baseline in the ratio of the PPT in the affected limb to the PPT in the unaffected 
limb for the thenar muscle/abductor hallucis muscle will be analyzed using a similar model as for 
average pain intensity. Only subjects with deep somatic pain (PPT ≤300 kPa) in the affected limb at 
baseline will be included in the analysis. 
Edema 
The change from baseline in edema will be analyzed using a similar model as for average pain 
intensity. Only subjects with presence of the CRPS sign “asymmetric edema” at baseline will be 
included in the analysis. 
14.1.7.3 
Handling of missing data 
Diligent attempts will be made to limit the amount of missing data in the primary efficacy endpoint. 
Efforts will be made to follow-up subjects who discontinue treatment and to collect the primary 
efficacy endpoint for the statistical analysis. 
The primary analysis using the MMRM is based on the MAR assumption. For the treatment policy 
or de facto estimand, the MAR assumption is justified for neridronic acid owing to the long half-life 
in bone and the anticipated persistent effect over the 12-week trial period. It can be assumed that the 
effect of neridronic acid continues after the treatment period is completed, and it also persists after 
the treatment period regardless of trial completion or early discontinuation. Therefore, the response 
of discontinued subjects will not change if the subjects continue to receive the stable therapy that 

Grünenthal

Protocol KF7013-04 including Amendment 01

they receive during the 12-week trial period up to Visit 8. If subjects change their treatment after 
discontinuation from the trial, it is nevertheless reasonable to assume that their response is not 
significantly altered as there are currently no established effective treatments. Hence, the MAR 
assumption is considered a plausible missingness mechanism for the primary estimand in the case 
of neridronic acid. 
The MAR assumption cannot be verified based on data observed in the trial. Deviations from MAR 
cannot be excluded and several plausible MNAR assumptions will be investigated to assess their 
impact. MNAR assumptions will be defined via PMMs specifying the distribution of missing 
values, e.g., for subjects discontinuing before the end of the trial. Plausible PMMs for the primary 
estimand are PMI and the delta shift method.  
Placebo multiple imputation is a reference-based approach based on the copy reference method. It 
models the means of missing values in the active arm based on the means observed in the placebo 
arm (reference arm). The method assumes that the response of discontinued subjects in the active 
arm gradually approaches the response in the placebo arm and eventually no effect of neridronic 
acid persists after a subject discontinues. For neridronic acid this appears conservative in light of the 
anticipated persistent effect. 
The delta shift method models the means of missing values in the active arm by adding a pre-
specified value Δ to the observed means in the active arm. The method includes a tipping point 
analysis, which is defined as the delta that must be added in order to overturn conclusions from the 
primary analysis from statistically significant to statistically insignificant. The method assumes that 
discontinued subjects in the active arm have higher pain compared to subjects who stay in the trial. 
Again this seems conservative if persistence of effect can be assumed for neridronic acid. 
Overall, the 2 PMMs can be considered more conservative than MAR because they model missing 
pain intensity scores in the active arm using higher mean values than the means actually observed, 
whereas the placebo arm is not changed. In this way, neridronic acid is effectively penalized under 
these assumptions.  
In summary, for neridronic acid the MAR assumption seems to be the most plausible missingness 
assumption for analyses estimating the primary estimand. It will be supplemented by sensitivity 
analyses based on MNAR assumptions representing plausible and reasonably conservative 
deviations from MAR. 
14.1.7.4 
Confirmatory testing strategy for secondary endpoints 
A confirmatory testing procedure will be used for testing of the superiority of neridronic acid 
400 mg versus placebo with respect to the primary and selected secondary efficacy endpoints 
(change from baseline to Week 26 in the average pain intensity, change from baseline to Week 12 
in the pain intensity level of DMA, change from baseline to Week 12 in the PPT ratio, and change 
from baseline to Week 12 in the ratio of figure of eight measurements). 
First, the primary endpoint will be tested at a one-sided level α = 2.5%. If the first test is statistically 
significant, the 4 secondary endpoints will be tested in a second stage. 
To control for the family-wise type I error rate at the one-sided 2.5% level, a hybrid Hochberg-
Hommel step-up procedure (hybrid-0 procedure in Gou et al. 2014) will be applied. The testing 
procedure uses the ordered p-values p(1) ≥ p(2) ≥ p(3) ≥  p(4). At first, if the largest p-value p(1) ≤ α,

then all 4 hypotheses are rejected. Otherwise the associated null hypothesis H(1) is accepted and 
testing proceeds to the next step. In general, at Step i = 2,..4, if  p(i)  ≤ ciα, then any hypothesis with 
p-value ≤ diα will be rejected and testing stops; otherwise the null hypothesis H(i) and testing 
continues at the next step. At Step 4, the null hypothesis H(4) is rejected if p(4) ≤ α/4; otherwise H(4) 
is accepted. The constants used in the testing procedure are defined by ci = (i+1)/(2i) and di = 1/i 
and are given in the table below.

This semiparametric multiple testing procedure controls the family-wise error rate in the strong 
sense if the test statistics follow a multivariate normal distribution with non-negative correlation 
coefficients (Gou et al. 2014) which can be assumed for the investigated 4 efficacy endpoints.

Subgroup analyses 
Subgroup analyses may be done if appropriate and will be specified in the statistical analysis plan.

Analysis of safety data 
The analysis of safety data will be performed using the Safety Set.

Adverse events 
A definition of adverse event is given in Section 12.4.1. 
The original terms recorded in the eCRF to identify adverse events will be coded using the most 
recent version of the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) at the time of 
database lock. 
Adverse events are only considered treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) if they start after 
first administration of IMP. All adverse events occurring in a subject administered a trial treatment 
and which do not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment will be defined as 
TEAEs. In addition, pre-treatment adverse events which worsen during the treatment periods are 
also considered TEAEs. 
Treatment emergent adverse events will be summarized. 
An overview of the number and percentage of subjects with at least 1 TEAE, serious TEAEs, non-
serious TEAEs, unexpected TEAEs, related TEAEs, related serious TEAEs, TEAEs leading to 
discontinuation from IMP, TEAEs leading to discontinuation from the trial, and deaths will be 
created. 
The number and percentage of subjects with adverse events and the number and percentage of 
events will be summarized by System Organ Class and Preferred Term for TEAEs, serious TEAEs, 
non-serious TEAEs, and related TEAEs. 
Additional summaries by intensity, causal relationship, outcome, countermeasure, time to onset, 
duration, and expectedness will be provided.

Algorithm for follow-up investigation of potential or suspected cases 
of drug-induced liver injury 
If alanine aminotransferase or aspartate aminotransferase is >3 x the upper limit of normal, repeat 
the lab test within 48 hours to 72 hours. The test should be performed for aspartate 
aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, creatine kinase, total, direct and indirect bilirubin, 
alkaline phosphatase, lipase and gamma glutamyl transferase. 
If alanine aminotransferase or aspartate aminotransferase is >3 x the upper limit of normal, 
(confirmed by retesting), and total bilirubin is ≤2 x the upper limit of normal, the investigator and 
the sponsor should discuss the following recommendations: 
• 
Initiate a close observation of the subject/patient.  
• 
Repeat testing of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline 
phosphatase, total, direct and indirect bilirubin, creatine kinase, gamma glutamyl 
transferase, international normalized ratio, eosinophilic granulocytes and lipase 2 times to 
3 times weekly.  
• 
Decrease the frequency of retesting to once a week or less if abnormalities stabilize or if the 
IMP has been discontinued. 
If aspartate aminotransferase or alanine aminotransferase is >3 x the upper limit of normal and total 
bilirubin is >2 x the upper limit of normal, the investigator and the sponsor should discuss following 
recommendations: 
• 
Repeat testing of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline 
phosphatase, total, direct and indirect bilirubin, creatine kinase, gamma glutamyl 
transferase, international normalized ratio, eosinophilic granulocytes and lipase.  
• 
Consult a hepatologist/gastroenterologist who must then conduct an obligatory abdominal 
ultrasound and other examinations (e.g., liver biopsy) as necessary.  
• 
Obtain more detailed history of symptoms (fatigue, nausea, vomiting, right upper quadrant 
pain or tenderness, fever, rash, and/or eosinophilia [>5%]).  
• 
Obtain history of concomitant medications, including herbal drugs, alcohol use or other 
drugs of abuse.  
• 
As appropriate, conduct laboratory investigations for other possible causes of liver injury. 
Testing can be discussed with the sponsor.

PROTOCOL AMENDMENTS 
19.1 
Protocol Amendment 01 
Amendment rationale 
The principal changes in this amendment are based on FDA feedback received in September 2018 
as well as feedback from ECs, IRBs, and other regulatory authorities. The following changes have 
been implemented: 
• 
Addition of weekly pain intensity assessments after Week 12 using an electronic diary. 
• 
Clarification of concomitant analgesic medication use as a (non-objective related) outcome. 
• 
Simplification of the description of “other data to be collected that are not directly 
attributed to or considered as an endpoint” (there was no change to the planned assessments 
or evaluations). 
• 
Removal of specification of male contraception in inclusion criterion 6. 
• 
Clarification in exclusion criterion 1 that the quoted eGFR and ACR thresholds refer to 
severe renal impairment. 
Minor inconsistencies have also been corrected. 
Detailed description of changes 
Minor editorial changes, such as the correction of typing errors, are not specifically listed.
