Recruiting studies
- NCT05009394Recruiting
Surgery options for long-term pain after limb amputation
This trial studies different surgical approaches to reduce persistent pain in the leftover part of an amputated limb. You may be able to join if your post-amputation pain has lasted more than a year and your pain level stays high despite stable pain treatments and prosthesis use.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05716321Recruiting
Study of pain and function after limb amputation surgery
This study looks at pain and day-to-day functioning after someone has a limb removed due to surgery. The results may help doctors better understand what to expect and how to improve comfort and mobility after amputation.
Hershey, PennsylvaniaAges 18–89 - NCT07420192Recruiting
A study on nerve surgery for pain after leg amputation
This trial tests a surgery called RPNI to treat painful nerve growths (neuromas) in people who have lost a leg. The goal is to reduce severe pain and improve the ability to use a prosthetic limb.
Ankara, AnkaraAges 18–70 - NCT07432685Enrolling by invitation
Can movement predict chronic pain after combat limb injuries?
This study is looking for people with combat-related arm or leg injuries to see if how they move can predict long-term pain. Researchers hope to better understand who might develop chronic pain and help improve treatment.
LvivAges 18–50 - NCT04063592Recruiting
Surgery plan for pain or skin problems in a healed leg stump
This study looks at a surgical approach for people who already had an above-knee or below-knee amputation and now have ongoing pain or skin/stump problems that haven’t improved. It aims to improve comfort and how well the stump area heals, assuming you’re healthy enough for surgery under standard anesthesia.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT07324109Recruiting
Testing a system for phantom limb pain after leg amputation
This trial is testing a system called Suralis to see if it can help evaluate phantom limb pain — pain that feels like it's coming from a missing leg. It's for people who have had a leg amputated below or above the knee, use a prosthetic regularly, and have daily pain scoring at least 3 out of 10.
Wiesbaden, HesseAges 18 years+ - NCT06840262Recruiting
Nerve surgery for pain after cancer amputation
This study tests two surgical techniques—target muscle re-innervation and regenerative peripheral nerve interfaces—alone or together, to help reduce pain felt in the remaining limb or the missing limb (phantom pain) after amputation for cancer. The goal is to find the best way to manage pain and improve quality of life.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06045936RecruitingPhase 4
Nerve block for phantom limb pain
This study tests whether a nerve block in the remaining part of your leg can help reduce phantom limb pain or pain in the residual limb. It is for people who have had an amputation more than a year ago and still have pain despite trying other treatments.
Mankato, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05287646Recruiting
Track how your residual limb moves while walking with a prosthesis
This study uses a special X-ray and markers to measure how your leg and skin move inside your prosthetic socket while you walk. It may help researchers better understand fit and comfort for people with transtibial (below-knee) amputations.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for residual limb pain?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 9 recruiting residual limb 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 residual limb 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 residual limb 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.
