Recruiting studies
- NCT07254806RecruitingPhase 3
Cell therapy for low back pain from disc disease
This study tests if injecting a special cell therapy into a damaged spinal disc can reduce chronic low back pain. It is for people who have had low back pain for at least 6 months and haven't gotten enough relief from other treatments like physical therapy or pain medication.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–75 - NCT05196503RecruitingPhase 3
PRF gel in spine surgery to reduce nerve pain after herniation
This Phase 3 study tests whether applying a healing material called platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) around the nerve during disc herniation surgery can reduce leftover nerve pain afterward. If you qualify, your team will compare pain intensity between standard care and PRF during the operation.
Strasbourg, Bas-RhinAges 18 years+ - NCT06611397Recruiting
Discogen study for lower back pain with leg pain
This trial tests a treatment called Discogen for people with lower back pain that also causes leg pain. It aims to see if the treatment helps reduce pain and improve function.
New York, New YorkAges 21–75 - NCT07003802Enrolling by invitation
Understanding back muscle control in disc injury
This study looks at how the brain controls back muscles in people with chronic disc injuries. It compares patients before surgery or physical therapy to healthy controls to better understand muscle function.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18–60 - NCT05066334RecruitingPhase 2
Back pain trial using your own stem cells in discs
This Phase 2 trial tests whether injecting your own stem cells into a few back discs can reduce chronic low back pain that has not improved with standard treatments. It may help by targeting disc-related (degenerative) wear seen on MRI, but it requires detailed MRI and blood test screening.
Roma, ItalyAges 18–65 - NCT04775537Recruiting
OssiMend bone graft for lumbar spine fusion surgery
This trial studies whether OssiMend bone graft helps heal a lumbar spine fusion for people whose disc disease has not improved with non-surgical care. It may be an option if you need back surgery due to specific spine wear-and-tear changes.
Encinitas, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05508360Recruiting
Testing an artificial spacer implant for one-level low back pain
This study tests whether inserting a small artificial implant into a single painful disc can reduce long-term low back pain and disability. It’s for people who tried non-surgical treatments for at least 6 months but still have significant symptoms from degenerative disc disease.
Medellín, AntioquiaAges 22 years+

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for lumbar disc herniation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 55 recruiting lumbar disc herniation 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 lumbar disc herniation 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 lumbar disc herniation 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.
