Active clinical trials for "Low Back Pain"

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of the Biostat Disc Augmentation System for the treatment of chronic low-back (lumbar) pain due to symptomatic internal disc disruptions (IDD) and to obtain preliminary efficacy information.

The purpose of this randomized controlled trial was to assess the effectiveness of GDS Treatment Method for patients with subacute or chronic non-specific low back pain in Primary Care of Spanish National Health Service.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of multiple doses of tanezumab administered every 8 weeks in treating chronic low back pain. Tanezumab is a monoclonal antibody directed against human nerve growth factor.

The purpose of this study is to compare oxycodone/naloxone combination tablet and codeine/paracetamol tablets in the treatment of moderate to severe chronic low back pain or pain due to osteoarthritis.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether patients who meet the criteria of the clinical prediction rule for spinal manipulation may respond more favorably to repeated exercises according to a direction of preference (what makes the symptoms decrease). The investigators do not know which of these two commonly-used treatments (manipulation or specific exercise) is better to treat low back pain.

The purpose of this study was to determine the immediate effect of 3 common physical therapy interventions for people experiencing low back pain on the perception of thermal pain. Additionally, the investigators wished to determine the influence of psychological factors related to fear and anxiety on their findings and to determine whether the effects of the individual interventions were local (specific to the area of application) or global (influenced regions away from the area of application).

The long-term goal for this study is to understand the physiological mechanisms of various forms of spinal manipulation in order to refine and improve this therapy for appropriately selected patients. The objective of this study is to assess the effects of high-velocity low-amplitude spinal manipulation and low-velocity variable amplitude spinal manipulation on three types of sensorimotor abilities in patients with low back pain.

Low back pain (LBP) is a common problem in the adult population with many approaches to treatment, but no clear answer. One of the causes of LBP, musculoskeletal pain, can be triggered by spasm of the deep muscles of the back and pelvis. This study, therefore, focuses on treating pelvic muscle pain as a way of lessening LBP.

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the effectiveness (level of pain control) and safety of orally administrated tapentadol (CG5503) Extended Release (ER) (base) at doses of 100-250 mg twice daily in patients with moderate to severe chronic pain of the lower back, in comparison with placebo and Oxycodone Controlled Release (CR).

This study compared the treatment effect of Activator Methods Chiropractic Technique (AMCT) and manual Diversified type spinal manipulative therapy in a sample of patients with acute and sub-acute low back pain.
