Study of a new drug for nerve pain after spinal cord injury
Treatments studied
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests an experimental pill for people with spinal cord injury who have long-term nerve pain. It aims to see if the drug can reduce pain and be safe.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 or older.
- You have had a spinal cord injury for at least 12 months.
- You have nerve pain below the level of your injury that is present every day.
- You have tried at least 2 different types of pain medicine that did not help enough.
- You can get yourself to the study center every day and understand English well.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial studies whether changing the “stimulation pattern” of spinal cord stimulation can reduce long-lasting pain and improve daily function. You might be a good candidate if you have chronic trunk or leg pain and have already tried multiple pain treatments without enough relief.
This study is looking at how people with spinal cord injuries or peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage outside the spine) experience pain. The goal is to better understand the different types of pain, which could help doctors create more personalized treatments in the future.
This study looks at how spinal cord stimulation (a device that sends mild signals to the spinal cord) affects nerve pain after lumbar surgery. It also aims to help predict who is most likely to improve and why, comparing patients with and without certain sensory symptoms.
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 type of spinal cord stimulator (a device that sends gentle electrical pulses to your spine to block pain signals) for people with chronic pain in their back, chest, or arms or legs. The goal is to see how well it works in real-life settings.
This study tests whether a personalized brain stimulation treatment (using a non-invasive technique called tDCS) can help reduce nerve pain in people with spinal cord injury. The researchers will also use EEG (a cap that records brain activity) to see how your brain responds.
