Filter by:This study will compare Z160 and placebo in patients with Postherpetic Neuralgia for safety and efficacy for a period of 6 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to investigate, whether leech therapy for the treatment of postherpetic pain improves pain and sensory function. Therefore 20 patients with PHN undergoing leech therapy at the investigators outpatient clinic will be included in this observational trial.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of 2 dose levels of V116517 versus placebo.
The primary objective is to explore whether sensory symptom cluster analysis is useful for predicting treatment response in Postherpetic Neuralgia.
The treatment of neuropathic pain ist still a challenge. A new promising therapy is the use of capsaicin on skin. The investigators first experiences with capsaicin in patients with peripheral nerve injury showed changes in the sensibility, which achieved its maximal extent after four weeks and was regressive, but not completely abolished 1,5 months after application. In this study the investigators hope to specify, how long and in which way exactly this changes in sensibility appear.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy, safety of administered DWP05195 in Postherpetic Neuralgia.
This is a placebo-controlled, double blind, crossover study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of KHK6188 in postherpetic neuralgia when administered orally for 2 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to see if the drug Pennsaid (Diclofenac) can help reduce pain felt by people with chronic nerve pain. The drug will be used 2-4 times each day for 2 weeks. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Pennsaid to treat osteoarthritis (bone pain), but the FDA has not approved Pennsaid to treat neuropathic (nerve) pain. The research study will compare Pennsaid to placebo.
Postherpetic Neuralgia is a painful nerve condition that can occur when nerve fibers are damaged following an outbreak of shingles. The purpose of this study is to identify and study abnormalities in the nerves and cells in the of patients with postherpetic Neuralgia (PHN) and characterize changes that could be responsible for causing nerve pain. This data will be compared to the tissue of healthy volunteers. Our goal is that this information will lead to the development of better treatment options for people with painful nerve conditions.
This is a Phase 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple-dose, multicenter, parallel-group study to evaluate the analgesic activity of ATx08-001, a novel selective peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor modulator (SPPARM), in subjects with moderate-to-severe postherpetic neuralgia pain. Eligible subjects will be randomized to receive either placebo or Atx08-001. Study drug will be administered orally twice a day for 7 days. Subjects will be evaluated for neuropathic pain intensity at regular intervals over a 6 hour period on Day 1 following the first dose of study drug. They will then be discharged from the clinic and will complete diary assessments of pain severity twice a day at home. Subjects will be asked to return to the clinic on Day 8 to complete their last set of pain evaluations.
