Ketamine derivative tested for stubborn nerve pain

NCT ID NCT05864053

Summary

This study is testing a new pain medication called (2R,6R)-HNK, which is related to ketamine, to see if it can relieve chronic nerve pain in the arms or legs. Twenty-five adults with long-term nerve pain will receive three different single-dose infusions (the new drug, standard ketamine, and a placebo saltwater solution) over 15 weeks to compare their effects. Researchers will measure how well the new drug reduces pain intensity, how long relief lasts, and if it improves daily function and sleep.
