Two-Point Discrimination Training for Chronic Pain
Cincinnati, Ohio
SPECIFIC AIMS
Pain in both youth and adults is a complex, subjective and personal experience, and remains poorly understood. One particularly perplexing dimension of some forms of pain is the tendency of pain to spread outside of an affected body site to adjacent location, and then to unaffected body sites. Such widespread pain may reflect an altered spatial tuning of somatosensory processing, such that lateral inhibition is diminished, thereby allowing pain to spread. To date, no therapies exist which are designed specifically to diminish or even reverse the spatial spread of pain. However, training in two-point discrimination holds the potential to retune spatial aspects of somatosensory processing and may represent a novel therapy for widespread pain. Thus, the present investigation will test the following aims:
Aim 1. Do youth with chronic pain have disrupted spatial tuning of somatosensory processing? Deficits in two point tactile discrimination have long been noted in adults with chronic pain, but such deficits remain poorly documented in pediatric chronic pain patients. In order to determine if such deficits exist, youth with both chronic pain and healthy youth will undergo assessment of two point discrimination thresholds.
Aim 2. Does two-point discrimination training result in diminished pain and disability in youth with somatic pain? After initial characterization of tactile discrimination thresholds, youth with chronic pain will participate in multiple sessions of either two-point discrimination training or a single-point spatially-directed attentional control condition. Training will involve up to 9 additional sessions. Efficacy of training will be assessed by 1) reductions in the spatial extent of pain, 2) reductions in pain intensity and unpleasantness, and 3) reductions in pain-related disability.

rTMS for Fibromyalgia
Hamilton, Ontario
Fibromyalgia is a syndrome associated with fatigue and chronic pain, leading to significant physical limitations and impaired quality of life. There are several challenges that complicate the diagnosis and management of fibromyalgia. The etiology is not well defined, as there are several proposed factors that may trigger the genesis of pain in fibromyalgia including physical and/or emotional life stressors, and genetic predispositions involving neuromodulator pathways. Chronic pain in fibromyalgia arises in the absence of tissue pathology, and consequently a lack of consensus on reliable diagnostic criteria. Understanding the neurophysiology of fibromyalgia would aid in the discovery of objective biomarkers for diagnosis. Therefore, the goals of this study are to:
1. Compare the neurophysiological responses in fibromyalgia compared to healthy controls.
2. Determine whether a two-week rTMS protocol will alter pain in individuals with fibromyalgia.

Neuromodulation Device for Fibromyalgia
Chesterfield, Missouri
Fibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic disorder that affects the musculoskeletal system, causing widespread pain, tenderness, and fatigue. It is estimated to affect 1-5% of the population. The primary symptom of fibromyalgia is widespread pain throughout the body, accompanied by tenderness and sensitivity to pressure.
Pharmacological treatments include drugs such as antidepressants, anticonvulsants, and painkillers. Another treatment option for fibromyalgia is the use of devices such as Quell. Other non-pharmacological treatment options for fibromyalgia include cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), biofeedback, and relaxation techniques.
Remote Electrical Neuromodulation (REN) is a non-pharmacological technology that induces subthreshold, non-painful neurostimulation signals that activate an endogenic pain-management system termed Conditioned Pain Modulation (CPM), to produce generalized pain relief in remote body areas. Multiple studies have shown that REN is safe and effective for the acute treatment of migraine in adults and adolescents, as well as migraine prevention.
The current study examines the safety and efficacy of REN technology, implemented via the FibroNova device for treating fibromyalgia pain and related symptoms.

Auricular Neuromodulation for Fibromyalgia
Decatur, Georgia
PENFS (percutaneous electrical nerve field stimulation) is an FDA-cleared acupuncture-like therapy applied to the external ear targeting several cranial nerve branches including the auricular branch of the vagus nerve to improve pain, physical function, and reduce symptoms of opioid withdrawal. PENFS has been previously shown to provide improvements in fibromyalgia, a difficult to treat chronic pain syndrome, which correlate with changes observed using a special kind of MRI called resting state functional connectivity MRI (rs-fcMRI) that evaluates brain activity at rest. The goals of this study are to rigorously test the initial promising results of PENFS in a much larger group of Veterans suffering from fibromyalgia and to identify potential mechanisms of PENFS effects. Further developing non-pharmacologic therapies for pain can help to improve quality of life and function for those suffering from fibromyalgia and decrease reliance on opioids and other drugs that have numerous side effects for individuals suffering from chronic pain.

CES with Alpha-stim for Fibromyalgia
Decatur, Georgia
Given recent increasing opioid-related deaths and evidence showing against the use of opioids for non-malignant chronic pain, there is growing need for non-narcotic pain management. Fibromyalgia is a difficult to treat chronic pain condition that is often treated with opioids despite existing evidence. The prevalence of fibromyalgia is increased among Veterans returning from the gulf war and is already a significant burden in senior Veterans who may have suffered with chronic pain for decades already. Many treatment options for fibromyalgia carry intolerable side effects. CES (Cranial Electrical Stimulation) is a FDA-approved, non-pharmacologic therapy that is currently utilized within the military and VA system, but sufficient evidence regarding its outcomes and neural mechanisms have not been adequately investigated. An understanding of its neural underpinnings and analgesic effects could lead to 1) improvements in pain management and quality of life, 2) cost-savings and 3) development of new techniques to address pain.

Health Coaching for Chronic Pain Syndrome
East Orange, New Jersey
The National Academy of Medicine (NAM) labels chronic pain as one of the most extensive health care issues facing our society with "severe impacts on all aspects of the lives of its sufferers."1 Pain predominant chronic multisymptom illness (Pain-CMI, e.g., fibromyalgia) is a particularly debilitating and presumptive service connected condition for Veterans who deployed to the Gulf region. Health coaching is an appealing potential approach to improve the disability of Pain-CMI because it is personalized to the Veteran's unique goals and beliefs about Pain-CMI and it will be widely available as the VA is rolling out health coaching. The goal of this proposal is to understand if health coaching is also efficacious for a complex pain condition, Pain-CMI.

Exercise Program for Fibromyalgia
Birmingham, Alabama
Fibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic pain condition that disproportionately impacts Veterans. Individuals diagnosed with FM patients experience lower self-esteem and positive affect, as well as greater levels of depression, anxiety, negative affect, and pain catastrophizing. Among those experiencing FM, clinical and experimental pain are associated with specific dispositional trait profiles, which are indexed by levels of negative affect and positive affect. Neuroinflammation and inflammation also play a role in FM- related affect and pain. Recent studies that have highlighted neuroinflammation and inflammation as physiological mechanisms associated with changes in dysregulated affect and chronic pain. Veterans with FM can ameliorate their dispositional traits-i.e., increasing positive affect and reducing negative affect-by participating in exercise. However, a gap exists regarding how to optimally engage Veterans with FM in an exercise program. Thus, to fully take advantage of all potential therapeutic benefits of exercise for FM, there is a critical need to identify those factors underlying exercise engagement for FM pain management. The purpose for this study is to 1) determine associations of dispositional trait styles, neuroinflammation, and inflammation with pain outcomes in Veterans with FM; and 2) develop and design a Veteran-informed exercise program.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do Fibromyalgia clinical trials pay?
Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.
How do Fibromyalgia clinical trials work?
After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Fibromyalgia trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Fibromyalgia is 12 months.
How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?
Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.
What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?
The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.
Do I need to be insured to participate in a Fibromyalgia medical study?
Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.
What are the newest Fibromyalgia clinical trials?
Most recently, we added taVNS for Fibromyalgia, Drug Therapy for Head and Neck Cancer and Behavioral Health Techniques for Fibromyalgia to the Power online platform.
