Filter by:This observational, prospective data collection is designed to evaluate the efficacy of CL-SCS therapy in real-world patients suffering from chronic pain.
The proposed project aims to explore possible neuromodulatory effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on neuropathic pain caused by peripheral neuropathy. tDCS will be performed through an MRI-compatible stimulation setting during functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scanning. The stimulation target of tDCS will be the primary motor cortex (M1) and the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC). We expect that results from the current project will advance the understanding of neuromodulatory mechanisms of tDCS and facilitate the development of treatment strategies for patients with neuropathic pain.
This study is a 3-part, Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Multiple Ascending Dose Study to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics/Pharmacodynamic properties of iN1011-N17 after Oral Administration in Healthy Volunteers and Post-Herpetic Neuralgia patients, and to assess the relative bioavailability of Mesylate vs Hydrochloride salt capsules of iN1011-N17 in Healthy volunteers.
Post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN) is the most frequent complications related to herpes zoster, and can persist for months or even years, and require extensive treatment. For this purpose, pharmacological therapies based on tricyclic antidepressants (amitriptyline), central nervous system depressants (pregabalin) and also opioids, have been stablished. However, all the drugs mentioned can cause serious systemic adverse effects that worsen the patient's quality of life. To avoid these complications, topical therapies based on Capsaicin or Lidocaine 5% patches have been developed. However, these treatments have shown dissimilar results in controlling PHN, so a mixed formulation of lidocaine/tetracaine could show better results. For these reasons, the main objective of our work is to evaluate the plasma levels of lidocaine derived from the application of a topical formulation of lidocaine derived from the application of a topical formulation of lidocaine 23%/tetracaine 7% in patients with neuropathic pain.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effectiveness of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy in reducing pain intensity in individuals with chronic painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN). The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does EMDR therapy significantly reduce pain intensity in individuals with chronic PDN? 2. What is the impact of EMDR therapy on secondary outcomes, specifically anxiety, sleep disturbances, and personalized pain-related limitations? Additionally, the study will explore the correlation between pain scores and symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in individuals with chronic PDN. Participants will undergo EMDR therapy sessions, focusing on the processing of emotionally charged pain-related events and addressing the pain itself. Main tasks for participants include active engagement in EMDR therapy sessions. Treatment outcomes, including changes in pain intensity, anxiety levels, sleep quality, and personalized pain-related limitations, will be monitored throughout the study.
The goal of this clinical study is to study sleep and its microstructure in neuropathic pain patients who have or who do not have a clinically significant sleep disturbance, before and during (after 1-month stabile dosage) pregabalin treatment. To find out whether reduced pain by pregabalin associates with improved sleep quality; to study, using resting state fMRI, brain network connectivity and the volume of the choroid plexus before and during pregabalin treatment (after dosage stable for one month) at baseline and during stabile treatment with pregabalin, and to compare the usability and reliability of sleep-related information collected with sleep diaries, actigraphy, iButtons, and ambulatory polysomnography in peripheral painful neuropathy patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is pregabalin more efficacious in neuropathic pain patients who suffer from insomnia compared to those with no clinically meaningful sleep disturbance? - Does sleep disturbance due to pain associate with brain network connectivity and may these changes be reversed by pregabalin treatment? Participants will - Fulfill e-questionnaires and keep sleep diary before and after 1month stabile pregabalin intervention - Before and after 1-month stabile pregabalin medication: 1-week Actiwatch monitoring, iButton (1 day and night), ambulatory polysomnography (1 night), brain fMRI. Researchers will compare patients with high ISI score patients to see if they benefit more from pregabalin treatment than those with low ISI score.
Preliminary evaluate of pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety and tolerability after oral administration of AJH-2947 in healthy Korean or Caucasian male subjects
High-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation of the primary motor cortex has shown its effect on refractory neuropathic pain, and rTMS of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex is commonly used for treatment-resistant depression. The treatment for patients suffering from neuropathic pain and depression, concomitantly, still needs to be studied, as there are some specificities in both symptoms and brain functional MRI.
Chronic neuropathic lumbar pain is among one of the most widespread complaints of patients.Many approaches have been attempted to target chronic pain, with varying efficacy and risks. Transgrade (TG) epidural injection is a new technique using a Racz- Coudé needle for epidural access at a "transgrade" angle without requiring any specialized hardware or accessories. Interlaminar (IL) epidural steroid injection (ESI) is one of the procedures that involves the delivery of injectate to the epidural space through directing a needle between the laminae of two adjacent vertebrae.
Over the last years a rising medical need for treatment of chronic pain was identified. Based on previous findings indicating the pain modulating effects of cannabinoids in chronic pain disorders, this clinical trial investigates the long term efficacy and tolerability of the THC-focused nano endocannabinoid system modulator AP707 in patients with chronic pain disorders due to central neuropathy of any genesis. Patients receive AP707 or placebo over the course of 14 weeks as an add-on to the standard of care. Changes in pain intensity, quality of life and sleep and others measures are monitored through different scales to assess the efficacy of AP707 in patients with chronic pain due to central neuropathy of any genesis.
