Spinal Cord Stimulation for Chemotherapy Nerve Pain
Part of Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a small implanted device that sends mild electrical signals to your spinal cord can reduce pain caused by chemotherapy drugs. If you have long-lasting nerve pain in your legs from cancer treatment that hasn't improved with medications, this study may help.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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 trial tests whether a gentle electrical stimulation on acupoints can reduce nerve pain caused by chemotherapy in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. It explores a non-drug treatment option for managing chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy.
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 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.
