A new treatment for chronic leg and back pain
Part of Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a procedure for people with long-standing leg and back pain that hasn't improved with standard treatments like physical therapy or pain medicine.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have had pain in one leg along with back pain for more than 6 months.

This trial tests a non-invasive treatment that uses mild electrical stimulation on the skin over the spine to help relieve nerve-related pain in the lower back. It may be an option for people with chronic nerve pain, with or without pain spreading down the leg.
This trial tests a new gene therapy called TG-C for people with chronic low back pain caused by degenerative disc disease. The goal is to see if it is safe and tolerable, and it might offer a new treatment option for those who haven't found relief from other therapies.
This trial tests if a single session of electrical stimulation to the sciatic nerve can quickly reduce leg pain related to low back problems. It may help if you have had chronic sciatica (leg pain from your back) for more than 6 months and your pain has recently been interfering with daily life.
This trial tests a combination of gentle nerve gliding exercises and muscle relaxation techniques for people with chronic leg pain caused by a pinched nerve in the lower back. The goal is to see if these treatments can reduce pain and improve movement.
This trial tests if a non-invasive brain stimulation technique can help people with long-lasting low back pain. It uses mild electrical currents to adjust brain activity and may reduce pain and improve daily function.
This trial tests a minimally invasive procedure that uses a special device to target and treat nerve-related back pain coming from the vertebrae (the bones in your spine). It may offer lasting relief without more major surgery.
