Recruiting studies
- NCT07593313Recruiting
Treatment for pain after stroke using spinal stimulation
This trial tests a treatment called spinal cord stimulation for people who develop chronic pain after a stroke. The pain is caused by the stroke itself and doesn't respond well to regular pain medicines. The treatment uses a small device to send mild electrical signals to your spinal cord to reduce pain.
Nanchong, SichuanAges 18 years+ - NCT05708729Recruiting
Brain stimulation for nerve pain after stroke
This study tests a type of brain “neuromodulation” to reduce central post-stroke pain (CPSP) and to understand how it works and whether it’s safe. It’s for people whose pain has not improved enough with certain standard pain medicines.
LeuvenAges 18–70 - NCT04144972Recruiting
Closed-loop deep brain stimulation for long-lasting nerve pain
This trial tests a “smart” deep brain stimulation device that senses your brain signals and adjusts treatment to reduce severe, long-lasting pain. It may help people whose pain has not improved with multiple pain medicines and surgery cannot fix the cause.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 22–80 - NCT05204472Recruiting
Deep brain stimulation for ongoing nerve pain after stroke or facial nerve issues
This trial studies whether a special brain device (deep brain stimulation, or DBS) can reduce long-lasting nerve pain. It focuses on one-sided pain after certain brain injuries or specific facial nerve pain causes, especially when medicines haven’t helped enough.
BernAges 18–75 - NCT06387914Recruiting
Deep brain stimulation for chronic stroke pain
This trial tests whether deep brain stimulation (using a device implanted in the brain) can help relieve severe, long-lasting pain caused by a stroke. It is for people who have tried other treatments without success.
Oxford, OxfordshireAges 21 years+ - NCT06446960RecruitingPhase 3
Nerve blocks for stroke-related central pain
This study tests whether numbing the nerves in your painful arm or leg (with a nerve block) can help reduce central pain after a stroke. It aims to find out how the nerves outside your brain and spinal cord may be involved.
Boulogne-BillancourtAges 18 years+ - NCT06718413RecruitingPhase 2
Study on shoulder pain after stroke
This study tests a treatment for shoulder stiffness and pain caused by muscle tightness after a stroke. It focuses on people who still have some limited shoulder movement and may help improve range of motion and comfort.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07153536Recruiting
Spinal stimulation and therapy for arm weakness after stroke
This trial tests if electrical stimulation of the spinal cord, combined with physical therapy, can improve arm and hand function after a stroke. It is for people who have had a stroke more than 6 months ago and still have significant weakness in one arm.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 22–70 - NCT06577467Recruiting
Studying leftover virus after covid recovery
This study looks for signs of leftover SARS-CoV-2 virus in people who have fully recovered from COVID-19, including those with ongoing neurological symptoms (like brain fog, fatigue, or nerve pain). It aims to understand why some people have long-lasting symptoms after infection.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–110

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for central post stroke pain?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 9 recruiting central post stroke pain studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a central post stroke pain trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a central post stroke pain trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
