ECAP-controlled spinal cord stimulation for chronic pelvic pain
Part of Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a new type of spinal cord stimulator that uses closed-loop technology to treat chronic pelvic pain caused by a known injury. It may be an option if your pain is severe and hasn't responded to other treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older.

This trial tests whether a gentle electric current applied to the back or spine can reduce pelvic pain that has lasted more than a year and hasn't improved with usual treatments. It compares two types of stimulation with a placebo (inactive) group to see which works best.
This study tests a device called a spinal cord stimulator — a small implant that sends mild electrical pulses to nerves in your spine — to see if it can reduce long-term pelvic pain that hasn't gotten better with other treatments.
This trial tests a closed-loop spinal cord stimulator that adjusts stimulation based on nerve signals. It may help people with chronic pain who are already scheduled to try this type of device.
This study tests a new way to deliver spinal cord stimulation for chronic pain using a system that adjusts automatically based on what your body is doing. You may be able to join if you’re using the Evoke system as part of the approved treatment plan.
This trial studies how well a new neurostimulation system (the Evoke System) works for chronic pain. If you're planning a temporary trial, you'll use voice-guided programming (EVA) to help manage your pain, and the study will track how it works for you.
This study tests whether a pacemaker-like device placed near the tailbone can reduce long-term pelvic pain in women who haven't gotten relief from other treatments.
