Nasal oxytocin for pain relief after pituitary surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether a nasal spray called oxytocin (TNX-1900) can reduce pain and help recovery after surgery for a pituitary tumor. It is for adults who are about to have pituitary surgery and are not on certain medications or with certain health conditions.

This early trial studies whether Syntocinon can lower pain and help reduce how much opioids people use. It checks safety and the best dose by giving participants the study drug under close medical monitoring.
This early-phase study tests whether oxytocin (a hormone-like medication) can reduce how “appealing” opioids feel and also reduce pain. It’s aimed at older adults who have used opioids before but are not currently dealing with chronic pain most days.
This study tests if giving oxytocin (a natural hormone) through an IV can help reduce pain after a minimally invasive hysterectomy. If you are having this surgery, you may be able to join.
This early-phase study tests whether a spray of oxytocin in the nose can be given safely and may affect symptoms in people with arginine-vasopressin deficiency. You might qualify if your hormone levels are stable and you can safely take the nasal study medicine during the study period.
This study tests a nerve block (called sphenopalatine ganglion block) for pain relief after pituitary tumor surgery through the nose. It aims to see if this block helps manage pain and reduces the need for other pain medicines.
This study checks whether rinsing your nose with saline (salt water) after pituitary surgery improves comfort and nasal breathing. It may help patients reduce post-surgery nasal irritation and support better nose outcomes.
