Active clinical trials for "Radiculopathy"

This double-blind, placebo-controlled, exploratory trial is designed to compare effects of oral CBD 600mg to placebo (PCB) in 20 outpatients with chronic spinal radiculopathies (without co-occurring Opioid Use Disorder), maintained on stable opioid analgesics for a minimum of 1 month. The trial duration will be approximately 2 weeks (from the point of randomization) of daily CBD 600mg vs placebo. Safety and tolerability of CBD will be assessed throughout the trial. The secondary efficacy outcome is change in pain outcomes from baseline to end of the treatment period at 2-weeks post-randomization/initiation of treatment with a Mixed Model for Repeated Measures (MMRM) statistical analysis performed to assess between group treatment effects of CBD relative to placebo.

This study will compare 2 types of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) to treat chronic neuropathic pain. TENS involves the application of electrical stimulation to the skin via surface electrodes to stimulate nerve fibres for pain relief.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether pharmacotherapy or epidural steroid injections are a better treatment for lumbosacral radicular pain. 142 patients referred to a participating pain clinic with lumbosacral radiculopathy will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive one of two treatments. Half (n=71) of the patients will be allocated to receive an epidural steroid injection (ESI; group I), with an equal number allocated to receive gabapentin (group II). Patients & evaluating physicians will be blinded. Follow-up will be through 3-months after treatment.

To evaluate differences in outcomes in patients receiving steroids compared to those patients randomized to the local anesthetic group who did not receive steroids. To evaluate and compare the adverse event profile in all patients.

The aim of the study is to evaluate the impact of the cervical disk surgery on the deterioration of the adjacent levels. The investigators compare the radiological deterioration of adjacent levels, at 3 years, in both situation of fusion and arthroplasty. 220 patients are enrolled and randomized to receive fusion or prosthesis. Radiological and clinical follow-up is organized for a period of 3 years.

Mounting evidence does support the combined use of manual physical therapy (MPT)and exercise for patients with cervicogenic headache and mechanical neck pain. However, there is insufficient evidence to assess the effectiveness of MPT and exercise for patients with neck disorders with radicular symptoms. Our purpose for this study was to determine the effectiveness of a manual physical therapy and exercise program as compared to a minimal intervention approach in the treatment of patients with mechanical neck pain, with or without upper extremity symptoms.

Objectives:The purpose of this study is to determine if use of nech collar (stiff or soft)will improve the possibility to obtain painrelief in patients with cervical radicular pain. We will compare short term (six weeks and three months) and long term ( one year) effect of six weeks use of neck collar (stiff or soft)together with "neck school information" with "neck school information" alone.

Trial will evaluate the efficacy and safety of pregabalin in the treatment of subjects with neuropathic pain associated with lumbo-sacral radiculopathy.

The purpose of this multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of lenalidomide in the treatment of painful lumbar radiculopathy.

The Westeinde Brachialgia Study (WEB) is a randomized controlled trial to establish the effect of cervical collar or physiotherapy compared to a wait-and-see policy in patients with acute cervical radiculopathy.
