Testing a pain relief device for chronic pelvic pain
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests if a non-invasive brain stimulation device can reduce pelvic pain. You will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: stimulation over the spine, over a nerve bundle, or a placebo (sham) treatment. The study aims to find a new treatment option for people whose pain has not responded to standard therapies.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 85 years old.
- You have had pelvic pain for more than one year (pain not caused by muscles or bones).
- Your pain medications or other treatments have been stable for at least one month.
- Your usual treatments have not worked well, so your doctor thinks about trying non-drug options.
- You rate your typical pain level as more than 3 on a 0 to 10 scale.
- You are able to understand the study and give your written consent.

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.
This study tests a conservative (non-surgical, non-medication) approach to help women service members with long-lasting pelvic or lower belly pain. It aims to see if this care can reduce pain and improve daily life.
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.
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 trial tests a new type of spinal cord stimulation for people with long-term nerve pain that hasn't improved with other treatments. The goal is to see if this special stimulation pattern can reduce pain better than standard care.
This Phase 2 study looks at how spinal cord (or nerve-root) stimulation affects pain signals in the brain and body. You may qualify if you already have a stimulator set to a comfort mode that avoids “tingling” sensations.
