Recruiting studies
- NCT06942806Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation for shingles nerve pain
This trial tests a treatment called high-frequency short-time spinal cord stimulation for pain caused by shingles (herpes zoster). It's for people whose pain hasn't improved with other treatments or who can't take pain medicines due to side effects or other health issues.
Zunyi, GuizhouAges 40–85 - NCT06949436RecruitingPhase 2
Early Gamma Knife for Trigeminal Neuralgia
This study tests if giving Gamma Knife radiosurgery (a precise beam of radiation) early after diagnosis can help control facial pain from trigeminal neuralgia. It is for people who have not yet tried many medications or are satisfied with their current pain control.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT06724029Recruiting
Neurosurgery outcomes research for multiple conditions
This study collects data from people having brain or spine surgery for many different conditions. It aims to understand how well different treatments work and how people recover. If you are scheduled for certain brain, spine, or nerve surgeries, you may be able to join.
Bergamo, BGAges 18 years+ - NCT06398847Recruiting
Virtual reality self-hypnosis for HIV-related pain
This study tests if using a virtual reality (VR) headset for self-hypnosis can help people with HIV manage chronic pain. You would practice at home with a smartphone app, and researchers will track your pain levels over time.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05754190Recruiting
Smartphone study of mood and symptoms in people with pain
This study uses a smartphone app to track daily pain and mood changes over about 4 months. It’s meant to learn patterns that could help better understand how mood and pain affect each other.
Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT05738096RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing nerve recordings to improve facial pain rhizotomy
This study looks at special nerve testing (nerve recordings) in adults who are scheduled for a procedure called percutaneous rhizotomy for facial pain. The goal is to see whether these recordings can help improve how the procedure works and affects pain.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05315596Enrolling by invitation
Tracking pain and recovery answers after surgery
This study checks how patients report pain and recovery over time after surgery. It may help improve how hospitals understand and manage pain after operations.
JenaAges 18 years+ - NCT04930887RecruitingPhase 2
Numbing injection in the face to ease craniofacial pain
This trial tests whether an injection of a numbing medicine (bupivacaine) guided by an endoscope can reduce craniofacial pain. It may help people with certain headache or facial pain conditions by targeting the pain area more precisely.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - 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 - NCT02910323Recruiting
Study for cluster headaches and trigeminal nerve pain
This study looks at people with certain severe headache disorders (cluster-type headaches or SUNCT/SUNA) or trigeminal neuralgia (sharp facial nerve pain). Researchers want to better understand these conditions and see how study testing/record review may help care.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for neuralgia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 58 recruiting neuralgia 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 neuralgia 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 neuralgia 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.
