Scrambler therapy for nerve pain from chemotherapy
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a non-invasive treatment called Scrambler Therapy for pain caused by nerve damage from chemotherapy. If you have had this kind of pain for at least 3 months, this therapy might help reduce it without using more drugs.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Have had pain from nerve damage caused by chemotherapy for at least 3 months.
- Finished neurotoxic chemotherapy at least 3 months ago, with no more planned for at least 5 months.
- Rate your pain as at least 4 out of 10 in the last week.
- Be able to complete questionnaires with or without help.
- Not have any implanted medical devices (like a pacemaker or insulin pump) or certain skin conditions that could interfere with treatment.

This study tests whether adding a non-invasive device called Scrambler Therapy to the usual nerve pain medicine (duloxetine) can better relieve chemotherapy-induced nerve pain. It is for people with cancer who still have significant nerve pain despite taking duloxetine.
This trial tests whether a spinal cord stimulator, a small device that sends gentle electrical signals to block pain, can relieve nerve pain caused by chemotherapy. If you have ongoing numbness or burning in your hands or feet after treatment, this study might help you feel better and improve your quality of life.
This trial tests whether spinal cord stimulation can reduce pain and improve quality of life in people with long-lasting nerve pain from chemotherapy (CIPN). You must already have tried at least two nerve-pain medicines and still have significant pain, and you must have had a successful spinal cord stimulator test before joining.
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment to see if it can reduce nerve pain caused by chemotherapy. It also looks at how the treatment affects the brain and immune system.
This study tests whether a small device that sends gentle electrical pulses to nerves in your leg can relieve pain caused by chemotherapy. If you have ongoing nerve pain in your legs from past chemo, this treatment might offer a new way to manage it.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation method to help reduce nerve pain caused by chemotherapy in breast cancer patients. It also uses brain scans to see how the treatment works.
