Filter by:Aromatase inhibitors have been used to treat hormone receptor positive breast cancer women in menopause, but side effects, such as joint pain, would affect their qualities of life. Chinese herbs or acupuncture provides promising clinical effects and plays an important role on alleviating the side effects of cancer treatment. This clinical trial will evaluate the effect of the acupuncture, Chinese medicine, and the combination of both on joint pain related to aromatase inhibitors among women with early-stage breast cancers.

This is a Phase 2a safety and efficacy study of XT-150 in adult participants experiencing back pain due to inflammation of the facet joint, also known as facet joint osteoarthritis (FJOA), and who are eligible for intra articular glucocorticoid injection, or radiofrequency ablation of medial branches of the primary dorsal ramus of the exiting nerve root, which innervates the adjacent facet joints. Study drug will be administered at Day 0 and Day 90 by bilateral intra-articular (IA) injection into the facet capsule, at the affected spinal level (e.g. Lumbar [L]3-4, L4-5, or L5-Sacrum [S]1) as determined by imaging (e.g., Magnetic resonance imaging [MRI], Computed tomography [CT]), X-ray, etc.) and physical exam. Up to 72 participants will be randomized to placebo or one of two dose treatment groups (24 participants per treatment group). 1. 0.15 mg XT-150 (1.0 milliliter [mL] total delivered by two 0.5 mL injections) 2. 0.45 mg XT-150 (1.0 mL total delivered by two 0.5 mL injections) 3. Placebo (Sterile saline) (1.0 mL total delivered by two 0.5 mL injections)
Cervical facet joints have been implicated as a source of chronic pain in 54-67 % patients with chronic posterior neck pain.1 Intraarticular injections, medial branch nerve blocks and neurolysis of medial branch nerves have been described in managing chronic neck pain of facet joint origin.2 The evidence for long-term therapeutic benefits of intraarticular injections of facet joints is limited. Medial branch nerve blocks show moderate evidence of long-term benefit with evidence of side effects.3 Paraneuraxial nerve blocks have become very popular clinically, due to their clinical and anatomical characteristics. These techniques are comparable to neuraxial nerve blocks in terms of success rate and analgesic efficacy and may confer many of advantages over neuraxial nerve blocks.4 Retrolaminar blocks are among this family that are near but not within the neuraxis like spinals or epidurals.5 Most reports and studies of retrolaminar blocks have been in the context of anesthesia for truncal surgery and truncal pain syndromes (thoracic and abdominal).6 Postoperative and pain treatment cervical retrolaminar blocks studies are currently sparse.7 The major advantage of this technique is minimizing or even eliminating the risk of pneumothorax. Additionally, the risks of nerve root damage and inadvertent injection into a dural sleeve, an intervertebral foramen, or the epidural or intrathecal spaces should also be decreased.8
This study will compare three different treatment injections for the management of acromioclavicular joint dysfunction (ACJ Dysfunction). Patients that consent and enroll will be randomized to receive (1) a corticosteroid injection, (2) an injection of Platelet Rich Plasma, or (3) a Lidocaine injection. Follow-up will occur over a 1 year period.
Failure of RFA has been attributed to technical failure of coagulating the nerve or coagulation of a minimal section of the nerve, allowing for early reinnervation. Consequently, increasing the success rate and duration of relief may require techniques that increase the likelihood of successful nerve ablation over a relevant distance by maximizing lesion size.
Purpose:Acupuncture for arthralgia induced by aromatase inhibitors in patients with breast cancer associated with screening of SNPs.

The purpose of this study is to determine if platelet-rich plasma is superior to steroid/anesthetic for the treatment of sacroiliac joint pain.
