Recruiting studies
- NCT05761392Recruiting
App-guided care plan for long-lasting hard-to-treat pain
This trial tests an app-based system to help manage chronic pain using precise treatment planning, including an implanted pain device. It may help by improving follow-up, adjusting care over time, and aiming to reduce pain when usual treatments didn’t work.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07190807Recruiting
Optimizing spinal cord stimulation for chronic back and leg pain
This trial tests if a spinal cord stimulator with a new way of adjusting electrical settings (called independent current control) can better manage chronic pain in the back, trunk, or limbs. The goal is to find more effective sequences to reduce pain and improve daily life.
Greenwood, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT07095036Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation and sensation study
This study looks at how a spinal cord stimulator affects your sense of touch and movement. It may help doctors better understand how this device works for people with chronic pain.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18–85 - NCT07507422Recruiting
Post-market study of Inceptiv spinal cord stimulation
This study follows people receiving Inceptiv, a spinal cord stimulator from Medtronic, to see how well it works over time. It is for adults with chronic back or limb pain who have not tried spinal cord stimulation before.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06596681RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Study of GA for hard-to-treat nerve pain
This early-phase trial tests a new treatment called GA for people with hard-to-treat neuropathic pain that hasn't improved with standard therapies. The goal is to see if it is safe and tolerable.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT05398003Recruiting
Stimulating nerves to treat long-lasting neck and arm pain
This trial tests whether a nerve-stimulation treatment can reduce chronic neck and upper arm pain when other treatments haven’t worked. It includes adults who can consent and attend follow-up visits, and it checks for safety with pregnancy prevention and a specific early test after implantation.
NantesAges 18–85 - NCT00804154RecruitingPhase 1
Capsaicin-like drug for severe cancer pain
This Phase 1 trial tests a new drug related to capsaicin (resiniferatoxin) to reduce severe nerve pain from advanced cancer. It is given through a small catheter near the spinal fluid space and is meant for people whose pain medicines and other options have not worked well enough.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–99 - NCT07122453RecruitingPhase 1
Study of CNTX-3001 for severe chronic low back pain
This trial tests a medicine called CNTX-3001, given as a spinal injection, for people with long-term, severe low back pain that hasn't improved with other treatments.
Napa, CaliforniaAges 18–75

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for intractable pain?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 8 recruiting intractable 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 intractable 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 intractable 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.
