Active clinical trials for "Neuralgia"

This study will examine how medical cannabis use affects neuropathic pain, inflammation and adverse events in people living with HIV (PLWH) with neuropathic pain. The investigators will observe how varying ratios of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol) in medical cannabis impact neuropathic pain, inflammation and adverse events.

This is a 2-part, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, Phase 2 study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy, and PK of RTA 901 in qualified subjects with DPNP. Each study part will be randomized into 3 treatment arms; 2 different doses of RTA 901 and a Placebo. The doses of RTA 901 in Part 2 will be selected based on the Exposure-Response (E-R) analyses of data from Part 1. A total of 384 subjects will be randomized in this study. Each part will have 192 subjects, with 64 subjects randomized 1:1:1 to each treatment arm. The duration of each part of the study will be approximately 20 weeks, including a Screening Period of up to 2 weeks, a Run-in Period of 2 weeks, a Treatment Period of 12 weeks, and a Follow-up Period of 4 weeks. All subjects in Part 1 and Part 2 of the study will follow the same visit and assessment schedule. Eligibility will be assessed during the Screening and Run-in Periods.

This post market study is being conducted to document the comparative effectiveness and safety of peripheral nerve stimulation plus conventional medical management versus conventional medical management alone in the treatment of chronic, intractable peripheral neuralgia of post-traumatic or postsurgical origin. This is a prospective, minimal risk, multi-center, randomized control trial.

Investigate the efficacy and safety of HSK16149 capsules in Chinese herpetic Neuralgia following 4 weeks treatment in comparison to pregabalin.

Peripheral neuropathic pain is a disabling chronic pain condition that is difficult to treat. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to the motor cortex is a treatment method with growing evidence in its ability to alleviate neuropathic pain. This also applies to new deep rTMS coils which permits stimulation of larger cortical areas and with deeper penetration. The aim of this study is to investigate the analgesic efficacy of 5 days of deep rTMS compared to sham stimulation. We will also assess effects of deep rTMS on sleep, psychological fatctors, everyday functioning, and executive functioning.

The purpose of this study is to explore a potential role of nitrous oxide in treating pain associated with fibromyalgia.

This study will comprehensively investigate the insula as a brain target for neuromodulation to treat chronic neuropathic pain.

This is a Phase IIa randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. The study objective is to investigate the efficacy and safety of repeat oral dosing of the investigational medicinal product (IMP) AP-325 for the treatment of peripheral post-surgical neuropathic pain (PPNP) after breast surgery (breast-conserving surgery, mastectomy, surgery to remove lymph nodes), chest surgery (e.g. thoracotomy, video assisted thoracoscopy and sternotomy), hernia repair of the abdominal wall (e.g. femoral hernia repairs, inguinal hernia repairs, umbilical hernia repair or incisional hernia repair), abdominal surgery (e.g. cholecystectomy, appendectomy but also see exclusion criterion 15), varicose vein surgery or gynecologic surgery (e.g. hysterectomy, C-section).

The aim of this study is to evaluate prospectively the feasibility and impact of personalised gamma knife radiosurgery treatment protocol versus current standard protocol for people with idiopathic or Multiple Sclerosis-related Trigeminal Neurolgia (MS related TN) on effectiveness in pain relief, the development of morbidity and quality of life. Patients with TN or MS-related TN are referred to the National Centre for Stereotactic Radiosurgery in Sheffield for clinical consultation, and will undergo gamma knife radiosurgery (GNRS) for treating trigeminal neuralgia if eligible. The GKRS treatment is provided as a standard National Health Service (NHS) routine care. The current procedure has been proven to be safe and effectiveness in reducing the pain caused by TN. The current GKRS treatment protocol performs the treatment on the trigeminal nerve close to the brainstem, which might result in higher complication rate (mainly facial numbness). This study will conduct a pilot randomised controlled trial to evaluate an alternative treatment protocol, which will perform the GKRS treatment at the retrogasserian zone (further away from the brainstem). This treatment protocol has been widely used in Europe and USA, and is safe and effective. Most studies adopting this protocol have shown less complication rate after treatment.

Scrambler Therapy is a type of non-invasive neuromodulation. According to the researches that studied the effects of the existing Scrambler therapy, 10 times of Scrambler Therapy showed a significant pain relief lasting for more than 1-3 months in various pain disorders such as post-herpetic neuralgia, cancer-related neuropathic pain, and mixed pain. No treatment-related side effects have been reported in Scrambler therapy conducted in previous studies. The most inconvenient thing about Scrambler Therapy is that it has to be treated more than 10 times during specific period, so frequent visits to the hospital for treatment linked to the higher burden for the patient's cost and even those are not fully covered by the government's insurance. To reduce this discomfort and expand the range of treatment in the era of Corona of untact treatment, LG Electronics devised a home self-scrambler treatment device for pain patients. The LG Medipain device has the same treatment function as the existing hospital Scrambler treatment device, but there has been no study on its efficacy and safety. Therefore, the investigators want to conduct this research and find out about the safety and equal efficiency of the LG Medipain Therapy. In this study, it is expected that pain relief and improvement of quality of life can be obtained for patients with various types of chronic pain through self-application of LG Medipain device.
