NCT ID NCT06571448
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a new drug called SR750 in 138 people with trigeminal neuralgia, a condition that causes sudden, severe facial pain. Participants took either SR750 or a placebo for 6 weeks and recorded their daily pain levels. The goal was to see if SR750 reduces pain better than a placebo and is safe to use.
