A Clinical Study of the GO-LIF® Approach for Lumbar Spinal Fixation
Lower Back PainThe purpose of this study is to collect data regarding the safety and feasibility of the GO-LIF procedure for spinal fixation and stabilization, in conjunction with conventional approaches for interbody lumbar fusion. This is in order to allow for evidence-based comparison to pedicle-screw-based techniques as described in the literature.

A Study of the Effectiveness And Safety Of Lidoderm® As Add-On Treatment in Patients With Postherpetic...
Postherpetic NeuralgiaDiabetic Neuropathy1 morePatients with a diagnosis of postherpetic neuralgia (PHN), diabetic neuropathy (DN), or low back pain (LBP) who were currently receiving an analgesic regimen that contained gabapentin participated in a Phase IV clinical trial to assess the effectiveness of Lidoderm® administered once daily (q24h) after 14 day in the treatment of PHN, DN, or LBP in patients who had a partial response to a regimen containing gabapentin.
An Open-label Extension Study With Flexible Dosing of Extended-release (ER) Tapentadol (CG5503)...
PainOsteoarthritis1 moreThe purpose of the study is to assess the long-term safety profile of Tapentadol (CG5503) extended release (ER) at dosages ranging from 100 to 250 mg twice a day in treating patients with moderate to severe chronic pain over a period of 1 year. The study will also assess dosage requirements over the long term; characterize adverse events and tolerability, sleep quality, and potential symptoms of withdrawal; characterize pain intensity scores and overall impression of change; and characterize patient-related health outcomes.

Recurrent Low Back PainStudy the effect of etoricoxib 60 mg and 90 mg compared to placebo to treat chronic low back pain.
Disc Prosthesis Versus Multidisciplinary Rehabilitation
Chronic Low Back PainDegenerative Disc DiseaseSurgical methods offered to patients with chronic low back pain are controversial. In addition, new and expensive treatment methods like total disc replacemet (TDR) are a challenge for the health care services. At present, ongoing randomized studies in both Europe and USA are comparing TDR to fusion. However, to our knowledge, no randomized trials have compared TDR to non-surgical treatment. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the effect of a comprehensive and structured non-surgical treatment with TDR surgery in patients with chronic low back pain and localized degenerative disc changes. Main hypothesis: There is no difference in treatment effect between surgery with lumbar total disc prosthesis and a multidisciplinary rehabilitation program measured by Oswestry Disability Index after 1 and 2 years. Secondary hypothesis: There is no difference in cost - effectiveness between surgery with lumbar disc prosthesis and a multidisciplinary rehabilitation program after 1 and 2 years.
Rehabilitation of Patients With Modic Changes in the Lumbar Spine
Low Back PainThe purpose of this study is to compare patients with low back pain (LBP) and Modic Changes from The Backcenter Funen, Ringe: To compare the effect of two types of non-operative treatments: A. exercise and advice to be physically active B. restitution and advice not to overload the spine To investigate if the results of the treatment are influenced by gender, age, smoking, and physical load.
The Right Intervention for the Right Patient
Low Back PainComplicated and expensive interventions are used to treat unspecific low back pain and the intervention is not always targeted the patients specific problems.It is therefore not surprising that a large fraction of unspecific low back pain patients do not respond very well to the usual biopsychosocial intervention. We would therefore like to identify the patients specific problems regarding the patients biomedical, psychological, and social needs.
