BronAges 18–80 - NCT07427537Recruiting
Studying nerve damage from chemotherapy in colorectal and lung cancer patients
This study looks for small molecules in the blood that might predict nerve damage caused by certain chemotherapies. If you have colorectal or lung cancer and are starting a specific chemo plan, this trial could help researchers understand why some people get nerve problems and others don't.
Clermont-FerrandAges 18 years+ - NCT06216717Recruiting
Study of electrode location for brain stimulation in chronic pain
This study looks at where electrodes are placed in the brain for people who have a device that stimulates the motor cortex to treat chronic nerve pain. The goal is to help improve how these devices are positioned for better pain relief.
Nice, Alpes MaritimesAges 18 years+ - NCT07054450Enrolling by invitation
Assessment and rehabilitation for chronic pinched nerve in the neck
This trial tests a program of assessment and rehabilitation (including physical exercise and possibly a nutraceutical supplement) for people with chronic cervical radiculopathy — a pinched nerve in the neck causing pain, numbness, or weakness in the arm. It may help reduce pain and improve function without surgery.
CraiovaAges 50–79 - NCT06540456Enrolling by invitation
Capsaicin patch for nerve-related lower back pain
This study tests a medicated patch called Qutenza (capsaicin) to treat chronic lower back pain that involves nerve damage. The patch is placed on the skin to help reduce pain signals.
Summerville, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06185816RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Non-invasive pulsed radiofrequency for nerve pain
This trial tests a non-invasive treatment called pulsed radiofrequency for people with chronic nerve pain after an injury. It uses a device that sends short bursts of energy to the painful area to help reduce pain without surgery.
Redwood City, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04933149Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Ketamine infusion for nerve pain after shoulder nerve injuries
This trial tests whether a ketamine infusion can reduce nerve-related pain after traumatic brachial plexus (shoulder/arm nerve) injuries. It specifically targets people with pain caused by nerve damage who are scheduled for surgery to repair the nerve.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT07602387Recruiting
Capsaicin cream for chemo-related nerve pain in legs
This study tests whether an 8% capsaicin cream (a chili-pepper derived treatment) can help reduce nerve pain and numbness in the legs caused by cancer chemotherapy drugs (taxanes). The cream is applied directly to affected areas, and the research team will track whether it improves your symptoms and pain levels over time.
Boulogne-Billancourt, HAUTS DE SEINEAges 18 years+ - NCT03952299RecruitingPhase 3
Oxybutynin patch after bladder surgery for children’s urgency pain
This study tests whether an oxybutynin skin patch after bladder surgery can reduce bladder pain and urgent, frequent urination in children. It compares symptoms after surgery to see if the patch helps more than the control plan.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 4–8 - NCT03037684Recruiting
Electrical skin stimulation for nerve and chronic pain
This trial tests whether painless electrical stimulation through the skin can reduce neuropathic pain or long-lasting pain after surgery. It may help some people by changing how pain signals travel in the nervous system.
NottwilAges 18–65 - NCT04867187Recruiting
Brain stimulation plus mirror therapy for nerve pain
This trial tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment (repeated TMS) combined with mirror therapy can reduce nerve pain. It may help people whose nerve pain has lasted for months and hasn’t improved enough with usual medicines.
BronAges 18–85 - NCT05295498Recruiting
Brain stimulation trial for nerve pain relief
This trial studies whether repeated magnetic stimulation of the brain can reduce ongoing nerve pain. It may help people whose nerve pain has been steady for at least a month and who still need pain medicine more than once a week.
KrakowAges 18 years+ - NCT05817786Recruiting
Electrical nerve stimulation for persistent arm nerve pain
This trial tests whether stimulating the nerve roots in the shoulder area can reduce long-lasting nerve pain in one arm. It may help people whose arm pain has not improved with standard nerve-pain treatments.
Lyon, FranceAges 1.5 years–80 years - NCT06023706RecruitingPhase 3
Capsaicin patch for tailbone pain
This trial tests a capsaicin 8% patch — a pain-relieving skin patch — to see if it can reduce tailbone pain that has lasted more than 3 months. You may be eligible if you have tried other treatments without success and have nerve-related pain symptoms.
BrestAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT06361108RecruitingPhase 1
Spray study for diabetic nerve pain in feet
This study tests a new spray medication (YJ001) applied to the feet to see if it is safe and helps reduce pain in people with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. You may qualify if you have diabetes, stable blood sugar, and moderate to severe nerve pain in your feet.
Fredericksburg, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT06444919RecruitingPhase 4
Capsaicin patch for finger osteoarthritis with nerve pain
This study tests if a capsaicin patch (a hot pepper extract) can reduce finger pain in people with osteoarthritis who also have nerve-like pain. It's for those who haven't gotten enough relief from standard painkillers.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for pain (visceral, somatic, or neuropathic)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 266 recruiting pain (visceral, somatic, or neuropathic) 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 (visceral, somatic, or neuropathic) 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 (visceral, somatic, or neuropathic) 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.
