Neuritis

This Phase 2 trial compares the drug dolutegravir alone versus dolutegravir combined with tenofovir in 146 adults with HTLV-1 infection and related symptoms. The main goal is to see if the combination lowers the virus level more effectively and improves pain, spasticity, and musc…

This study tests whether a drug called IVIG (Panzyga) can help people with small fiber neuropathy, a condition causing nerve pain and damage. Researchers will give 20 adults either IVIG or a placebo for 6 months, then check nerve fiber growth in skin biopsies and pain levels. The…

This study tests a device called Walkasins, worn on the lower legs, that vibrates to give sensory feedback about foot pressure. The goal is to see if using it daily for six months improves balance and walking in 200 adults aged 55+ with peripheral neuropathy. Participants will do…

This early study tests a small device that sends gentle electrical pulses to nerves to relieve severe, long-lasting knee, elbow, or shoulder pain. About 30 adults with chronic pain will first try a temporary implant for up to 8 hours. If it works well, they can get a permanent ve…

This study tests whether wearing Boarding Ring glasses can help people with vestibular neuritis (a sudden, severe vertigo attack) recover their balance more quickly. Researchers will measure changes in balance and eye movements over one week in 51 adult patients. The glasses are …

This study tests a portable laser device that people use at home to temporarily relieve foot pain caused by idiopathic peripheral neuropathy. 32 adults with constant foot pain for at least 3 months will use the device twice daily for 21 days. The main goal is to see if at least 3…

This study tests whether non-invasive sensors can detect reduced blood flow in the legs during long pelvic surgeries. Thirty adults will be monitored during their procedure. The goal is to see if this approach can help prevent complications like limb ischemia.

This study aims to see if a quick bedside sensory test can predict which painkiller—pregabalin, duloxetine, or a placebo—works best for people with nerve pain in their feet. About 190 adults with diabetic, chemotherapy-related, or idiopathic nerve pain will try each treatment for…

This study is collecting information from 4,000 adults with peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage) to better understand the condition. Researchers will combine standard tests with nerve ultrasound to see if it helps diagnose and track the disease. No new treatments are being tested…

This study looks at whether tiny molecules in the blood, called microRNAs, can help predict how often and how severely cancer patients develop nerve damage from chemotherapy. Researchers will study 90 people receiving specific chemo drugs for lung or colon cancer. The goal is to …

This study is testing whether a special type of MRI, called resting-state fMRI, can predict how well people with optic neuritis (inflammation of the optic nerve) will recover their vision. Researchers will scan 200 patients and track their vision over 6 months. The goal is to see…

This study is testing a mild electrical stimulation method on the skin to better understand nerve pain in people with neuropathy or chronic pain after surgery. Researchers will measure how pain intensity and thresholds change. The goal is to learn more about how pain signals work…

This study is collecting nerve samples and biofluids from 400 people with ALS or peripheral neuropathies to find biological markers for early diagnosis and disease tracking. By analyzing individual cells, researchers hope to identify molecular changes that happen before symptoms …

This study looks at whether ultrasound can detect nerve changes in people with Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) earlier than standard tests. Researchers will compare ultrasound images with nerve conduction studies …
