Active clinical trials for "Neuralgia"

This is a placebo-controlled, double blind, crossover study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of KHK6188 in postherpetic neuralgia when administered orally for 2 weeks.

This is a double-blind, randomized withdrawal study comparing CNV1014802 with placebo in patients with trigeminal neuralgia who have successfully responded to CNV1014802 in an initial open-label phase. Patients will participate in an initial open-label treatment period of 21 days of CNV1014802 150mg three times a day (tid). Responders will be randomized to 28 days of CNV1014802 150mg tid or placebo. Following an interim analysis after 10 evaluable patients have completed the open-label phase, the dose regimen may be increased to 350mg twice a day (bid) for the remainder of the trial if the responder rate is less than 60%.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy, safety of administered DWP05195 in Postherpetic Neuralgia.

The study is a randomized, double blind, cross-over study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CNV1014802 in subjects with neuropathic pain from lumbosacral radiculopathy.

A study to investigate the analgesic efficacy of AZD2423 compared with placebo after 28 days treatment in patients with posttraumatic neuralgia.

Rationale: Pregabalin is effective on radiotherapy-related neuropathic pain. Purpose: This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial aims to investigate the effect and safety of pregabalin in treating radiotherapy-related neuropathic pain.

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether V158866 is safe and effective for the treatment of neuropathic pain due to spinal cord injury.

This was a clinical effectiveness trial designed to compare the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of treatment with tapentadol prolonged release with that of oxycodone/naloxone prolonged release in non-opioid pre-treated subjects with severe chronic low back pain with a neuropathic pain component. Both tapentadol and the opioid oxycodone are effective in chronic severe pain and tapentadol and oxycodone/naloxone have shown advantages in gastrointestinal tolerability versus oxycodone. Therefore, it was of high scientific interest to compare the latter 2 analgesics with respect to gastrointestinal tolerability. Tapentadol may have advantages regarding the neuropathic pain-related symptoms of low back pain due to its 2 mechanisms of action.

Aim of the study Failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS) is a clinical entity consisting of chronic leg and /or back pain due to radicular nerve damage. The effectiveness of Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) in the pain management of patients with FBSS is proven. Patients mostly have dominant leg pain, however a significant percentage of FBSS patients has a more pronounced back pain and are commonly excluded from SCS as it is often inadequate in relieving both the back and leg pain components. Recently some reports showed the benefit of subcutaneous stimulation (SubQ) for low back pain in patients with FBSS. This has been confirmed by a feasibility study performed by our group. The aim of the randomized controlled study is to evaluate the effect of SubQ on low back pain in FBSS patients for whom SCS gives an inadequate back pain relief. Hypothesis We hypothesize that SubQ in addition to SCS in FBSS patients with leg and low back pain is more effective in treating low back pain (i.e. >50% pain reduction) than SCS alone.

This is a pilot study designed to collect preliminary data on safety and efficacy of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to relieve pain in cancer patients who developed neuropathic pain in the affected area after a surgical intervention, radiation therapy, or chemotherapy to treat the disease.
