TRIGEMINAL NEURALGIA

This study tests whether repeated magnetic pulses to the brain (rTMS) can reduce chronic nerve pain that hasn't responded to other treatments. About 32 adults with conditions like post-stroke pain or nerve injury will receive rTMS daily for two weeks. The goal is to see if this n…

This early-phase study tests whether MRI-guided focused ultrasound can safely reduce disabling facial pain in people with trigeminal neuralgia that hasn't responded to medication. Ten adults aged 21-75 with chronic, severe pain for over 6 months will receive the procedure and be …

This study tests a new, non-invasive radiation method called Virtual Cone radiosurgery for people with trigeminal neuralgia whose pain is not controlled by medication. The goal is to see if this frameless technique can safely and effectively reduce severe facial pain. About 40 ad…

This study compares two drugs, carbamazepine and oxcarbazepine, to see which one provides better pain relief for people with trigeminal neuralgia, a condition that causes sudden, severe facial pain. About 122 adults aged 18 to 60 with the condition for at least two weeks will tak…

This study tests a daily drug called basimglurant in 166 adults with trigeminal neuralgia, a condition causing severe facial pain. Participants have not gotten enough relief from their current pain medicines. The trial checks if the drug can reduce pain attacks and improve qualit…

This study aimed to find out how many people with trigeminal neuralgia (a severe facial nerve pain condition) also have a painful jaw joint disorder called TMD. Researchers planned to follow patients from three clinics and use questionnaires to improve diagnosis. However, the stu…

This study looks at whether virtual reality training before Gamma Knife brain surgery can improve pain relief for people with trigeminal neuralgia, a severe facial pain condition. Researchers will also use MRI scans and artificial intelligence to find brain patterns that predict …
