How your genes affect pain relief after surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study looks at how your genes might affect pain relief from a medication called nalbuphine after abdominal or pelvic surgery. It aims to personalize pain management based on your genetic makeup.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 70 years old
- You are having a surgery in your belly or pelvis area expected to take 2 to 4 hours
- Your health is good enough to be classified as ASA 1, 2, or 3 (meaning you are reasonably healthy or have mild to serious but well-controlled health conditions)
- You are not taking certain medications like blood thinners, some antidepressants, or antifungal drugs listed by the study team
- You are not allergic to opioids
- You are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a history of narcotic addiction

This study looks at whether genetic differences can help predict how much pain you may have after an elective (planned) operation. If you qualify, you may be asked to give consent and share information so researchers can compare pain experiences across people.
This trial tests a combination of two pain-management approaches—a long-acting numbing medicine injected near nerves and a self-administered opioid—to see if they help your gut function better and control pain after bowel or colon surgery.
This study compares two different nerve-blocking techniques to help manage pain after laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. Both methods use ultrasound guidance to deliver numbing medication near nerves, and the trial tests which approach works better for pain relief and overall recovery.
This trial looks at how certain genes may affect how children feel pain after surgery. The goal is to understand if differences in your DNA can help doctors manage pain better for each child.
This trial tests whether adding fentanyl or nalbuphine to a common numbing medicine (bupivacaine) during gallbladder removal surgery can improve pain relief afterward. It is for generally healthy adults who are not pregnant and have no serious gallbladder problems or drug allergies.
This study tests a new medication called HSK55718 to treat pain after abdominal surgery. If you're having moderate to severe pain within 4 hours of surgery, this trial may help you get relief and contribute to finding better pain treatments.
