Spinal cord stimulation for nerve pain from chemotherapy
Part of Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a device that sends mild electrical signals to your spine to help reduce nerve pain in your legs caused by chemotherapy. It may be an option if other pain medicines haven't worked for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be an adult.
- Your nerve pain from chemotherapy must have lasted at least 1 year.

This trial tests whether a new type of spinal cord stimulator (SCS) can reduce pain caused by chemotherapy. If you have lasting nerve pain after cancer treatment and standard pain medications haven't helped, this device might offer relief.
This trial tests if adding electroacupuncture, a gentle type of acupuncture using mild electric pulses, can help relieve nerve pain, tingling, or numbness caused by chemotherapy in people with cancer.
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 study tests a special laser treatment (photobiomodulation) to reduce nerve pain caused by chemotherapy in cancer patients. If you have had nerve pain for at least 3 months after chemo and can attend twice-weekly sessions, this may help ease your pain.
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.
