DRG Stimulation for Complex Regional Pain Syndrome

Chicago, Illinois
This study seeks to evaluate the use of intermittent dosing as an alternative paradigm for patients with DRG stimulation in place for at least 1 year and minimum 50% pain relief in the targeted area. Patients will be prospectively randomized to one of two stimulation paradigms both of which involve intermittent dosing at 30 seconds ON and 90 seconds OFF. Group 1 will have their frequency set at 20 Hz with amplitude levels adjusted in order to remain in the therapeutic window (subthreshold stimulation). Group 2 will have their frequency set at 5 Hz with amplitude levels adjusted in order to remain in the therapeutic window (subthreshold stimulation) This study will be performed in a crossover fashion, meaning patients will be changed to the alternate dosing regimen at the 13-week time period. Patients will be seen and evaluated prior to randomization and reprogramming, and thereafter evaluated at 4, 8, and 12-weeks. At the 12-week time period, patients will begin a 1-week washout period of continuous stimulation. At the 13-week time period, patients will be evaluated, crossed over to the other study arm and thereafter evaluated at 17, 21, and 25-weeks.

Digital vs Traditional Ankle Foot Orthoses for Muscular Weakness

Mississauga, Ontario
The research is being done to compare two methods of creating AFOs: 1. The traditional method, which involves manually creating a mold from a plaster cast of the client's limb. This is time-consuming and labor-intensive; and 2. The newer method uses digital technology, such as 3D scanning and printing, to design and produce the AFOs, potentially making the process faster and less costly. We want to know whether AFOs made using digital technology can provide the same clinical benefits as those made traditionally.

Carbon Fiber Orthosis for Healthy Subjects

Iowa City, Iowa
The primary purpose of this research study is to determine if forces within carbon fiber custom dynamic orthoses (CDOs) can be reliability assessed using Loadpad and Loadsol force measuring sensors (Novel GMBH, St. Paul, MN). An improved understanding of the forces acting within orthoses may help to guide future orthosis related research studies, provision methods, and patient education. Study participants will consist of three groups; 1) healthy, able-bodied adult participants using generic sized CDOs, which consist of a proximal cuff that wraps around the leg just below the knee, a posterior carbon fiber strut that runs the length of the leg and bends to store and return energy, and a semi-rigid footplate that acts as a lever arm to bend the posterior strut, 2) individuals without peripheral neuropathy who use AFO(s) regularly, and 3) individuals with peripheral neuropathy who use AFO(s) regularly. . Group 1 participants will be asked to fasten the proximal cuff to a self-selected cuff tightness 'SSCT', as well as three different predefined force levels; 'Loose' where the proximal cuff is loosely fastened around the participants leg, 'Moderate' where the proximal cuff is fastened with moderate tightness, and 'Tight' where the proximal cuff is tightly fastened around the participants leg. Testing in the predetermined force levels (Loose, Moderate, Tight) will occur in a randomized order. Group 2 and Group 3 participants will be asked to fasten their AFO(s) to a self-selected 'SSCT' tightness. For all groups, forces acting on the leg, within the proximal cuff, will be measured using wireless Loadpad sensors and forces acting on the foot will be measured using wireless Loadsol insoles. Testing will include collection of force data as participants sit quietly, stand quietly, and walk and completion of questionnaires.

Lidocaine Patch for Peripheral Neuropathy

Salt Lake City, Utah
The R61 will perform a four-part double-blind randomized crossover study transitioning from a pretreatment baseline phase, to randomized treatment with either lidocaine or an identical placebo patch, washout, and alternate arm. DLss measures will be obtained before and after each phase. Twice daily report of pain using a visual analogue scale will track severity of ongoing spontaneous pain in participants. The hybrid biomarker will distinguish between placebo and active treatment arms, will significantly correlate with extent of neuropathic pain reduction during lidocaine, but will not change during the placebo phase or no-treatment lead-in. If preset Go/No-Go criteria are met, the subsequent R33 validation will then compare lidocaine patch and placebo treatment in a blinded, randomized parallel arm study.

PRF + PSG for Mandibular Nerve Injury Recovery

Seattle, Washington
Sagittal split osteotomy (SSO) is a common operation done to move the mandible to correct dentofacial deformities and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) injury and associated paresthesia is a well-known negative outcome following SSO, causing temporary or sometimes, permanent numbness in the chin and/or lip. There are limited methods to decrease the occurrence and duration of neurosensory dysfunction. Recent research has shown that platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) aids neurosensory recovery after SSO. Another method to minimize nerve injury is proximal segment grooving (PSG) to create space for the nerve to rest. This grooving method has never been formerly reported. The purpose of this study is to answer the following question: Among patients undergoing bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) for dentofacial deformity or OSA, do those who receive PRF with or without PSG, compared to those who do not, have shorter times to functional sensory recovery (FSR) of the IAN? The null hypothesis is that there is no difference among 4 treatment groups and neurosensory outcomes. The specific aims of this proposal are to 1) enroll and randomize subjects who will undergo BSSO for correction of dentofacial deformity or OSA into 4 different treatment groups (PSG with PRF, PSG alone, PRF alone, neither PSG or PRF), 2) measure objective and subjective post-operative nerve function at fixed intervals post-operatively for up to 1 year, 3) compare differences in neurosensory outcomes among treatment groups, and 4) identify other variables that might be associated with differences in neurosensory outcomes.

"I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer three months ago, metastatic to my liver, and I have been receiving and responding well to chemotherapy. My blood work revealed that my tumor markers have gone from 2600 in the beginning to 173 as of now, even with the delay in treatment, they are not going up. CT Scans reveal they have been shrinking as well. However, chemo is seriously deteriorating my body. I have 4 more treatments to go in this 12 treatment cycle. I am just interested in learning about my other options, if any are available to me."

TMS for Neuropathic Pain

San Francisco, California
Chronic neuropathic pain is defined as pain caused by a lesion or disease of the somatosensory nervous system. It is highly prevalent, debilitating, and challenging to treat. Current available treatments have low efficacy, high side effect burden, and are prone to misuse and dependence. Emerging evidence suggests that the transition from acute to chronic neuropathic pain is associated with reorganization of central brain circuits involved in pain processing. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a promising alternative treatment that uses focused magnetic pulses to non-invasively modulate brain activity, a strategy that can potentially circumvent the adverse effects of available treatments for pain. RTMS is FDA-approved for the treatment of major depressive disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and migraine, and has been shown to reduce pain scores when applied to the contralateral motor cortex (M1). However, available studies of rTMS for chronic neuropathic pain typically show variable and often short-lived benefits, and many aspects of optimal treatment remain unknown, including ideal rTMS stimulation parameters, duration of treatment, and relationship to the underlying pain etiology. Here the investigators propose to evaluate the efficacy of high frequency rTMS to M1, the region with most evidence of benefit in chronic neuropathic pain, and to use functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to identify alternative rTMS targets for participants that do not respond to stimulation at M1. The central aim is to evaluate the pain relieving efficacy of multi-session high-frequency M1 TMS for pain. In secondary exploratory analyses, the investigator propose to investigate patient characteristic that are predictive of responsive to M1 rTMS and identify viable alternative stimulation targets in non-responders to M1 rTMS.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Nerve Damage 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 Nerve Damage 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 Nerve Damage 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 Nerve Damage 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 Nerve Damage 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 Nerve Damage clinical trials?

Most recently, we added DARZALEX FASPRO® for Peripheral Neuropathy, Electrical Stimulation for Nerve Damage and Cryotherapy Gloves for Colon Cancer to the Power online platform.
