Filter by:This trial is designed to preliminary evaluate the efficacy and safety of NIBS system for evaluation and treatment of neuropathic pain. The NIBS system evaluates brain neuronal network activity and customizes a personalized treatment utilizing low current non invasive brain stimulation technology for neuropathic pain with central component. this is single meeting trial which includes brain activity evaluation and a single treatment and sham treatment. The goal of the study is to evaluate the central brain component of neuropathic pain subjects, and the effect of conventional tDCS treatment.
Hypothesis: ITB bolus can have antinociceptive effect on neuropathic pain in spinal cord injury patients, which could depend on the subtype of pain, or on the lesion level, cervical or thoracic spinal cord injury. Objective: To study the effect of intrathecal baclofen bolus on neuropathic pain in patients with spinal cord injury at cervico-dorsal level. Primary Endpoint: Effect of intrathecal baclofen bolus in neuropathic pain (measured using the Neuropathic Pain Inventory Scale, the Brief Pain Inventory and the Numerical Rating Scale) in spinal cord injury at cervico-dorsal level. Secondary Endpoints: 1. Spasticity and spasms (measured using the Modified Ashworth Scale and the Visual Analogue Scale and Penn Spasm Frequency Scale). 2. Neurophysiological examination (warm perception threshold, heat pain perception threshold, evoked pain perception and contact heat evoked potentials).
The primary objective of the study is to assess the effect of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 inhibition on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of BIIB074. The secondary objectives of this study are to assess the safety and tolerability of BIIB074 when co-administered with a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor and to assess the effect of CYP3A4 inhibition on the PK of 3 metabolites of BIIB074 (CNV3000497 [M13], CNV2283325 [M14], and CNV2288584 [M16]).
A study examining the effectiveness of neurofeedback therapy for the treatment of Central Neuropathic Pain (CNP), in patients with a Spinal Cord Injury, using a small user-friendly device which can be operated by patients at home.
The hypothesis of this Phase 2 study is that at least 1 dose regimen of DS-1971a will demonstrate clinical superiority to placebo in managing pain associated with DPNP, and will be generally well tolerated.
In the context of peripheral neuropathy, we will aim to elucidate correlates between sensory symptoms and: - Sensory nerve dysfunction. - Cutaneous small nerve fibre innervation density. - Psychological co-morbidity. - Circadian rhythm disturbance co-morbidity. - Functionality and Quality of life. - Patterns of human brain activity in a subset of patients that consent to participate in the FMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging) component of PINS. 2. We will also collect blood samples in this phenotyped cohort of patients. These blood samples coupled with detailed phenotype data will investigate potential gene associations only in the development of painful neuropathy. 3. Knowledge gained from the study will be used to aid the further development of pain questionnaires, designed to detect patients with painful neuropathy. 4.Knowledge gained from the study will be invaluable in informing on-going investigations of painful peripheral neuropathy in animal models, both in our laboratory and others.
The spinal nerve injury in humans often results in neuropathic pain characterized by spontaneous burning pain accompanied by allodynia and hyperalgesia. In this sense, lomboisquiatalgia is a neuropathy that is characterized by narrowing the intervertebral foramen of the lumbar vertebrae, leading a lumbar chronic pain which irradiate to a lower limb, being a clinical condition of difficult treatment. Neural Mobilization is a noninvasive technique used by physiotherapists. The technique aims to restore mobility and elasticity of the peripheral nervous system by tenses which are imposed on the roots, nerves, spinal cord and their respective meninges. This technique has been standardized in basic research and has shown promising results. However, clinically, this technique lacks randomized, controlled and double blind studies. Therefore, the investigators have to evaluate the effects of Neural Mobilization technique in patients with lomboisquiatalgia. In this study the investigators will treat patients three times a week, with ten minute treatment time per session, with 25 oscillations per minute for ten sessions. Many tools will be used to assess the effects of the protocol applied, for example: evaluation sheet, visual analogue scale (VAS), quality of life assessment - WHOQOL-bref questionnaire of Roland Morris disability, oswestry index on disability (version 2.0), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays for the measurement of cytokines in the blood tissue. In this way, the investigators can contribute and understand the mechanisms involved in the rehabilitation process.
Cross-sectional and longitudinal analysis of the somatosensory phenotype, assessed by quantitative sensory testing (QST) and Information obtained by questionnaires to detect risk factors for neuropathic pain development and chronification in painless and chronic pain patients.
A randomized, open-label , positive drug controlled (Neurotropin,Japan organs Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. ), multi-center study to evaluate Analgecine's efficacy and safety for the treatment of neuropathic pain.
Effective treatment of acute pain, chronic and persistent is the most important concern in the world today. Although a variety of pain medications including anti-inflammatory painkillers and opiouids, patients continue to suffer from pain constantly. For over a century ,International committees studied the issue of cannabis, and almost uniformly recommended the use of cannabis for various medical applications ,especially those that include pain treatment. Despite the widespread use of THC in clinical practice, there are few studies on the efficacy of THC In a double-blind, randomized trial. In addition, few studies examined the effect of THC on the experience pain in healthy subjects and most of them did not find an effect on pain experimental induced by capsain. so checking other models of pain such as thermal pain and mechanical pain in addition to checking the influence on the regulation of pain will contribute to understanding the mechanism of action of THC. Understanding the mechanism of action of THC in relieving pain will lead to predicting who will benefit from this treatment and direct patients for selection of appropriate medication according to the damaged mechanism.
