Oxybutynin patch after bladder surgery for children’s urgency pain
This study tests whether an oxybutynin skin patch after bladder surgery can reduce bladder pain and urgent, frequent urination in children. It compares symptoms after surgery to see if the patch helps more than the control plan.

Trial for chronic pelvic pain: CBT vs education/support
This study tests whether structured talking therapy (CBT) or education/support helps reduce chronic pelvic pain problems in adults. It compares two approaches over time and uses symptom diaries and follow-up check-ins to see which works better.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–70 - NCT06394830RecruitingPhase 2
Testing VNX001 for bladder pain syndrome
This study tests a new treatment (VNX001) for people with interstitial cystitis or bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS). You must have already taken part in an earlier study of this drug to join. The goal is to see if it safely reduces bladder pain.
Fresno, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05737121RecruitingPhase 2
Study drug for bladder pain compared with lidocaine, heparin, or placebo
This Phase 2 trial tests VNX001 to see if it helps people with interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) compared with its separate ingredients (lidocaine and heparin) or a placebo (inactive treatment). You may be eligible if you have had IC/BPS for months and recently had a moderate-to-severe bladder pain flare.
Newport Beach, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06673108RecruitingPhase 2

What taking part in a bladder pain syndrome study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
