Summary

This study looks at whether a single session of intense aerobic exercise can temporarily reduce pain sensitivity in 66 young people with and without chronic pain. Participants will walk or run on a treadmill, and researchers will measure how their pain perception changes. The goal is to see if exercise could be a simple, medication-free way to help teens with chronic pain feel better and get back to normal activities.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Aerobic exercise (treadmill test)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward exercise as a drug-free way to help young people manage chronic pain.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only one exercise session. It may not show clear benefits, and results may not apply to all types of chronic pain.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 66 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Expected to start

Apr 2026

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Mar 2027

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Ages

10 to 17 years
