A new device for neck pain treatment compared to the standard one
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests a new device that uses heat to treat neck pain that has lasted at least 3 months. It compares the new device to the standard one to see if it works better or is safer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years or older
- You have had neck pain (not shooting pain down your arm) for at least 3 months
- Your average neck pain is at least 4 out of 10 in the past week
- You had a positive response to two separate nerve block injections in your neck
- You can read and understand English and are able to fill out questionnaires

This trial compares two ways of using radiofrequency heat to treat a specific set of neck pain nerves (the “cervical medial branch nerves”). It may help people with long-lasting neck pain who did not improve with standard treatments and who respond to diagnostic nerve blocks.
This study compares two needle-based techniques to treat long-lasting low back pain by stopping overactive pain signals from specific back joints. If you’ve already tried physical therapy and pain medicines without enough relief, this trial may test which technique works better for pain reduction.
This study compares a nerve procedure (radiofrequency “neurotomy” using an expandable electrode) to non-procedure medical care for long-lasting low back pain from facet joints. It aims to see whether the procedure helps more safely than conservative treatment.
This trial studies a procedure called radiofrequency denervation to reduce long-lasting, mostly “pain-from-joints/structures” low back pain, and it uses brain imaging to understand what changes during treatment. It may help people who already showed they respond well to a similar diagnostic nerve block.
This study tests an experimental drug called ITX24-01 for people with severe, long-term neck or lower back pain that comes from the small joints in the spine. If you're already planning to have a procedure called radiofrequency ablation (RFA) to treat this pain, this trial may help you by testing if the drug can improve your pain relief.
This study compares two ways of doing a procedure called radiofrequency ablation (RFA) to treat low back pain coming from the small joints in the spine. It aims to find which approach gives better pain relief.
