Study Summary

This trial will compare the effectiveness of Axon Therapy, using transcutaneous magnetic stimulation (tMS), against conventional medical management in treating post-traumatic peripheral neuropathic pain (PTPNP).

Who is the study for?
Adults aged 18-75 with chronic pain from nerve damage due to trauma or surgery, who can follow the study plan and fill out English questionnaires. They must have stable pain levels and not be involved in certain legal claims or other trials. Excluded are those with specific medical conditions, high daily doses of opioids, or at risk for suicide.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing Axon Therapy using transcutaneous magnetic stimulation (tMS) versus standard pain management methods for treating long-lasting neuropathic pain caused by injury or surgery.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While the side effects of Axon Therapy aren't detailed here, similar treatments may cause skin irritation at the treatment site, headache, dizziness, or temporary worsening of pain symptoms.

Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: CMM + Axon TherapyExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will return to the clinic for assessment at Day 30 (± 14 days), Day 90 (± 14 days), Day 180 (± 30 days) and Day 365 (± 30 days). Participants randomized to the CMM plus Axon Therapy group will return to the clinic for Axon Therapy treatments as follows: Month 1: 6 treatments WEEK 1: 3 treatments (consecutive treatments are best) WEEK 2-4: Weekly treatments Month 2: Bi-monthly treatment Months 3-12: Treatments every 2-4 weeks In addition to in-clinic assessments and treatments, all participants will a receive weekly phone follow-up to assess pain intensity and occurrence of adverse events after treatment starts. Weekly phone follow-ups will only occur during weeks when the participant is not in clinic for treatment.
Group II: CMM OnlyActive Control1 Intervention
Participants will return to the clinic for assessment at Day 30 (± 14 days), Day 90 (± 14 days), Day 180 (± 30 days) and Day 365 (± 30 days)
