Recruiting studies
- NCT05023005Recruiting
Strain-Counterstrain therapy for piriformis muscle pain
This trial tests a hands-on physical therapy technique called “strain-counterstrain” to reduce pain from the piriformis muscle. It may help people whose pain is coming from that specific muscle rather than the low back.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 18–65 - NCT03168802Recruiting
Ultrasound and nerve treatment for facet-joint low back pain
This study tests whether a procedure that uses focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) and/or a radiofrequency nerve treatment can reduce long-lasting low back pain caused by facet-joint arthritis. It may help people whose pain improves strongly after a targeted numbing injection to specific back nerves.
Taipei, Please SelectAges 20–79 - NCT07762170RecruitingPhase 4
Steroid injections for back and pelvic pain
This study is testing how well and how safely steroid injections work for different types of back pain. If you join, you'll receive the injection as part of your care and fill out surveys about your pain and ability to do daily activities before and after.
Thornhill, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07696312Recruiting
Straight leg raise test accuracy for leg pain
This study checks how well the straight leg raise test can find the exact nerve causing your leg pain by comparing it with a targeted nerve block injection. It may help if you have leg pain from a pinched nerve in your lower back.
Istanbul, PENDİKAges 18–65 - NCT05986370Recruiting
Study on back pain and spinal manipulation
This trial tests whether spinal manipulation therapy (a type of hands-on treatment) can help people with long-term low back pain. It also compares their results to healthy volunteers of the same age and sex.
Trois-Rivières, QuebecAges 18–60 - NCT07695987Recruiting
Nerve block for pain relief after back surgery
This trial tests a nerve block called Quadro-Iliac Plane Block to reduce pain after a single-level lumbar microdiscectomy (back surgery). The block is given before surgery and may help you need less pain medicine and recover more comfortably.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 18–75 - NCT06778447Recruiting
Disc injection for chronic low back pain
This study tests whether injecting a special disc material (nucleus pulposus allograft) into the damaged discs of your lower back can safely reduce pain and improve function. It's for people with long-term, moderate to severe low back pain from disc disease that hasn't gotten better with other treatments.
Napa, CaliforniaAges 22–85 - NCT06971601Recruiting
Testing physical exams for kneecap fat pad syndrome
This study aims to find out if simple physical exam tests can accurately diagnose impingement of the fat pad behind the kneecap. You would get a clinical exam and an MRl to compare the results, so researchers can see which tests best identify the problem.
Saint-MauriceAges 18–70 - NCT06453499Recruiting
Silent Lower Back Disc Herniation Study
This study looks at people who have a herniated disc in their lower back that is pressing on a nerve, but who have no back pain or leg pain. The goal is to understand this 'silent' condition and why some people have no symptoms.
GizaAges 20–40 - NCT06264297Recruiting
Nerve radiofrequency treatment for chronic leg pain
This trial tests a new type of treatment (high-voltage pulsed radiofrequency) that uses a special needle to deliver energy to the nerve root in your lower back. The goal is to see if it can reduce chronic leg pain caused by a pinched or irritated nerve.
Terrassa, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07030582Recruiting
Online therapy for back pain and recovery after spinal fusion
This trial tests if internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy can help people recover better after lumbar fusion surgery by reducing pain, strengthening back muscles, and improving outlook on recovery. You can participate from home using WiFi.
Nantong, JiangsuAges 18–55 - NCT06539793Recruiting
Nerve stimulation for fibromyalgia pain
This trial tests if a gentle nerve stimulation treatment can reduce pain and improve daily function in people with fibromyalgia. It aims to understand how treatment affects natural pain signals.
Sadat, MenoufiaAges 25–35 - 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 - NCT05231265Recruiting
Lumbar surgery effect on walking complexity in chronic low back pain
This study looks at how lumbar spine surgery (fusion or artificial disc “prosthesis” on one or two levels) affects how complex your walking looks and feels. It may help doctors better understand what to expect from surgery and how it changes movement in people with long-term low back pain.
NîmesAges 18 years+ - NCT06718348Recruiting
Lumbar Traction Device for Low Back Pain
This trial tests a supportive device (Japet.W+) that gently pulls on your lower back to help reduce pain. If you have had low back pain for more than 6 weeks without a specific cause, you may join.
Charleroi, HainautAges 18 years+ - NCT07214844Recruiting
Freezing vs. heating nerves for chronic low back pain
This study compares two procedures to treat long-term low back pain from the small joints in your spine. One uses extreme cold, the other uses heat to stop pain signals. It may help if you have had at least three months of back pain and other treatments haven't worked.
The Bronx, New YorkAges 18 years+

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for lumbar pain syndrome?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 40 recruiting lumbar pain syndrome 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 pain syndrome 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 pain syndrome 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.
