Recruiting studies
- NCT07413731Recruiting

Antibiotic to prevent UTI after bladder Botox
This study tests whether taking a low-dose antibiotic (nitrofurantoin) before a Botox bladder injection can help prevent urinary tract infections. You may be able to join if you are getting Botox for overactive bladder or painful bladder syndrome and do not have frequent UTIs or other health issues that would make the antibiotic unsafe.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07290296Recruiting

Blood flow training for leg muscle health in athletes
This study tests a training method that uses light blood flow restriction to improve leg muscle structure. It is for young athletes (ages 15–35) who play high-level sports like martial arts, basketball, soccer, or futsal at least twice a week.
Denpasar, BaliAges 15–35 - NCT06527183Recruiting
Fibromyalgia and small fiber nerve study
This study looks at whether people with fibromyalgia or long-term chronic pain have damage to the small nerve fibers in their skin. Understanding this could help develop better treatments.
Boulogne-BillancourtAges 18 years+ - NCT06453447Recruiting
Prednisone to prevent CRPS after wrist fracture surgery
This trial tests whether a short course of the steroid prednisone can prevent or reduce complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) after wrist surgery. It is for people who had a broken wrist fixed with a plate and screws and have a higher chance of developing CRPS.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 19 years+ - NCT06366269Recruiting
Acupuncture first for bladder pain syndrome
This trial tests whether acupuncture can help relieve pain and pressure from bladder pain syndrome (also called interstitial cystitis). Researchers want to see if using acupuncture early can improve symptoms better than usual care.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–89 - NCT06315179Recruiting
Spatial gene study for inflammatory bowel disease
This study looks at tissue samples from people with suspected Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, or indeterminate colitis. The goal is to understand these conditions better and may lead to improved treatments.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 6–21 - NCT06141902Enrolling by invitation
Herbal tea for stem cell donor well-being
This study tests whether a special herbal tea (Jing Si Herbal Drink) can help people who donate stem cells feel better physically and emotionally. It is for healthy stem cell donors who are willing to drink the tea as part of the study.
Hualien CityAges 20–55 - NCT05737121RecruitingPhase 2
Study drug for bladder pain compared with lidocaine, heparin, or placebo
This Phase 2 trial tests VNX001 to see if it helps people with interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) compared with its separate ingredients (lidocaine and heparin) or a placebo (inactive treatment). You may be eligible if you have had IC/BPS for months and recently had a moderate-to-severe bladder pain flare.
Escondido, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT00389142Recruiting
Find genes linked to bladder pain and urinary symptoms
This study looks for genetic (inherited) causes of bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS), using information from people who have typical urinary symptoms. It may help doctors understand why IC/BPS happens, which could guide better future care.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 1 year+ - NCT05149573Recruiting
PEMF therapy for women with painful bladder symptoms
This trial studies whether a device that uses gentle pulsed electromagnetic waves (PEMF) can reduce symptoms in women with interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS). It may help if your symptoms are currently fairly severe and ongoing.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 18–80 - NCT04909138Recruiting
Intermittent nerve stimulation instead of daily low-frequency therapy
This study tests whether switching from continuous implanted nerve stimulation to an intermittent schedule can keep pain relief for people with chronic back and/or leg pain. You would be compared in a structured study plan to see if the alternate dosing works for you and is safe.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–90 - NCT04734106RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Aloe vera for bladder pain and frequent urination
This early-stage study tests whether aloe vera can reduce symptoms of interstitial cystitis, such as bladder pain and frequent urination. You’d help researchers check both safety and symptom relief.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 18–80 - NCT00051857Recruiting
MRI Study of Muscle and Bone Function
This research study uses MRI scans (a safe imaging tool) to understand how bones, muscles, and joints work. Researchers are looking for both people with muscle or bone injuries and healthy volunteers to compare how the body moves and functions.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 5–95 - NCT06669884Recruiting
New ECG method to quickly sort chest pain in ER
This study tests a new ECG-based technology that may help doctors more quickly sort out the cause of your chest pain in the emergency room. If you have chest pain that needs checking, this tool could help decide how urgent your care is.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT07345377Enrolling by invitation
Personalized brain stimulation for irritable bowel syndrome
This study uses brain stimulation (TMS) customized for each person to treat IBS. It uses MRI scans to see how the brain responds, aiming to find better ways to predict who will benefit from this therapy.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT07544914Recruiting
Magnetic Stimulation for Elbow and Wrist Chronic Pain
This study tests whether a non-invasive magnetic therapy applied to the skin can reduce chronic pain from tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, or carpal tunnel syndrome. The treatment uses magnetic pulses to stimulate nerves and may help relieve pain without medication or surgery.
Winnipeg, ManitobaAges 18 years+ - NCT07276542RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Ketamine for phantom limb pain: a six-month outpatient study
This study tests whether ketamine, given as an outpatient treatment, can reduce phantom limb pain over six months. You would come to a clinic for multiple ketamine sessions, with at least a week between each session, and be followed for a year.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–65 - NCT07624136Recruiting
Kinesio Taping for Shoulder Flexibility and Range of Motion
This study tests whether a special athletic tape (Kinesio tape) applied to your lower back and shoulder area can improve flexibility and reduce shoulder pain in people with chronic shoulder impingement syndrome—a condition where shoulder structures get pinched, causing long-term pain and stiffness.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for pain syndrome?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 267 recruiting 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 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 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.
