Baltimore, MarylandAges 50–89 - NCT05811312Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation and brain changes in chronic pain
This study uses non-invasive brain monitoring to see how spinal cord stimulation may change brain activity in people with chronic nerve pain. It aims to better understand how treatment affects the brain and pain over time.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06603792RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Neurofeedback for diabetic nerve pain
This trial tests whether a brain-training technique called neurofeedback can help reduce nerve pain caused by diabetes. It is for people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes who have had moderate-to-severe nerve pain for at least 3 months.
OdenseAges 18–82 - NCT07125027Recruiting
A mind-body program for leg pain from back issues
This trial tests a program called Move-MORE that combines movement and mindfulness to help people with long-lasting leg pain caused by a nerve problem in the lower back. It involves daily activities, weekly virtual group meetings, and tracking your progress with a wearable device.

Study of suzetrigine for diabetic nerve pain
This trial tests an experimental pain drug called suzetrigine for people with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage from diabetes that causes pain in the feet and legs). It aims to see if the drug can safely reduce pain over time.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–80 - NCT04687215Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation for painful diabetic nerve pain
This trial studies whether a spinal cord stimulator can reduce pain from diabetic nerve damage in the legs. It focuses on people with long-lasting type 2 diabetes and significant, treatment-resistant pain.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for neuropathic pain?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 157 recruiting neuropathic 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 neuropathic 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 neuropathic 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.
