Hand therapy for early complex regional pain syndrome
This trial compares two hand therapy techniques — contrast baths (alternating warm and cool water) and compression with whirlpool therapy — to see which better eases early-stage complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) after a hand or wrist injury. If you've had hand or wrist trauma and are still in pain, this study might help you find a treatment that reduces discomfort and improves hand use.
Ankara, YenimahalleAges 18–80 - NCT03838107Recruiting
Tracking changes in pediatric CRPS using study markers
This study looks at how signs in the body change over time in children with CRPS (complex regional pain syndrome). It mainly involves being assessed alongside the usual CRPS care, and often includes MRI checks to better understand the pain course.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 10–17 - 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 - NCT04831346Recruiting
Laser treatment to improve jaw opening in young women
This study tests whether low-level laser therapy can improve how far you can open your jaw and changes in jaw muscle activity in people with one-sided jaw muscle temporomandibular disorder (TMD). It may help reduce jaw movement limits related to that condition.
GizaAges 18–30 - NCT04845217RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Peppermint oil for bladder pain in women
This trial tests whether peppermint oil can reduce symptoms of interstitial cystitis (also called bladder pain syndrome). It’s mainly looking at safety and early signs it may help your bladder discomfort.
Louisville, KentuckyAges 18–65 - 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 - 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 - NCT05279963Recruiting
Study for bladder pain using a nerve-based treatment (EA)
This trial tests whether a nerve-based therapy called EA can reduce bladder pain. It also aims to understand why the treatment may help by looking at underlying mechanisms.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–70 - 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+ - NCT06294951Recruiting
Brain Scans for Bladder Pain Syndrome
This study uses brain scans (fMRI) to learn how bladder pain syndrome affects the brain. It compares women with bladder pain to those without, to better understand symptoms and improve future treatments.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06315179Recruiting
