Pain Clinical Trials in Miami, FL

The purpose of the chronic pain master protocol is to compare independent pain interventions and establish an overarching structure for the disease-state addenda (DSA) and intervention-specific appendices (ISAs). The ISAs may start independently of other ISAs as interventions become available for clinical testing. Read Less

The goal of the ATX101-TKA-004 clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ATX101 1,500 mg in participants undergoing primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty. The study will compare the effectiveness of ATX101 with a saline placebo and bupivacaine, an active comparator. Additionally, it will assess opioid consumption among participants receiving ATX101 versus those given the saline placebo and bupivacaine. The trial will also focus on the safety and tolerability of ATX101 in the participants. Read Less

Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is widely used for chronic and acute wounds, severe burns, and post-operative care. Despite its benefits, the strong adhesive required to maintain an airtight seal increases the risk of medical adhesive-related skin injuries (MARSI), pain, and discomfort during removal. Global Biomedical Technologies (GBT) aims to develop an NPWT drape with "switchable adhesive" technology to enhance removal while maintaining an effective seal. This innovation is expected to benefit both single-use and serial-use NPWT applications by reducing MARSI and improving patient comfort. This project will compare the functionality and acceptability of Comfort Release® NPWT drapes with the industry-standard V.A.C. drape (KCI Technologies, Inc.) in a non-blinded randomized controlled trial. Specific Aims Aim 1: Compare Comfort Release® drapes with V.A.C. drapes in single-use NPWT applications in post-surgical patients (n=200) at Columbia University Medical Center and Weill Cornell Medical Center. Milestones: Demonstrate statistically significant (α=0.05) improvement over V.A.C. drapes in: Reduction of MARSI (Medical Adhesive-Related Skin Injury scoring system) Decreased pain (Indiana Polyclinic Combined Pain Scale) Reduced need for pain/anxiety medication Equivalent or improved seal effectiveness (leak incidence rate) Clinician acceptability Aim 2: Compare Comfort Release® drapes with V.A.C. drapes in serial-use NPWT applications in chronic wound patients (n=100) at Weill Cornell Medical Center. Patients will undergo three NPWT drape changes per week. Milestones: Demonstrate statistically significant (α=0.05) improvement over V.A.C. drapes in: Reduction of MARSI Decreased pain (Indiana Polyclinic Combined Pain Scale) Improved compliance with treatment duration Reduced need for pain/anxiety medication Equivalent or better seal effectiveness Clinician acceptability (questionnaire score \>4) Reduced nursing time by ≥20% Economic value through time and cost savings At each dressing change and final removal, qualitative data from clinicians will assess the acceptability and usability of Comfort Release® NPWT drapes.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of Suzetrigine (SUZ) in participants with pain associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). Read Less

The main purposes of this study are to (1) measure the effect of CBD/CBD-A on pain symptoms, pain intensity, pain unpleasantness, and skin sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures; and (2) measure the effect of CBD on brain electrical activity with electroencephalography (EEG). Read Less

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare opioid medication consumption after surgery for patients who have a total knee replacement. The main questions it aims to answer are: * How well does the study drug control pain in the days after surgery? * Does the study drug reduce the amount of opioid analgesic consumed after surgery? Participants in the study group will undergo a total knee replacement as planned with their surgeon. In addition, be given the study drug, Zynrelef (combination of bupivacaine and meloxicam). Researchers will compare the above to a control group who will have a total knee replace only according to usual standards to see if there are any differences in the amount of a type of pain medication (opioid analgesic) consumed in the days following surgery.
