This randomized Stage 1 pilot trial tests the feasibility of a community health worker (CHW) delivered chronic pain self-management intervention for older adults ("STEP-UP"; Support, Training, and Education for Pain Self-Management - Using Podcasts) in a primary care setting. A total of 40 participants aged 50+ with high-impact chronic pain will be randomized to intervention or control groups. The STEP-UP intervention will feature an educational podcast series teaching core pain self-management skills. Podcasts will be supplemented by sessions with a Community Health Worker taking place at designated times over a 7-week period. The Community Health Worker will guide participants in a modified Patient Priorities of Care approach to help them identify their values and priorities and develop goals that reflect these.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of retatrutide in participants who have obesity or overweight (J1I-MC-GZBJ master protocol) including subsets of participants who have knee osteoarthritis (OA) (J1I-MC-GOA1) or who have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) (J1I-MC-GSA1). This study will last about 89 weeks and will include up to 24 visits. Read Less

Recently a new form of spinal cord stimulation therapy called burst spinal cord stimulation (Burst-SCS) is available to treat chronic pain. The goal of this study is to learn more about how Burst-SCS works to reduce chronic pain. The study will examine chronic pain patients who have been deemed candidates for Burst-SCS therapy, and who have already been selected to receive a temporary externalized trial of Burst-SCS from their own doctors as part of their standard clinical care for chronic pain management. During the study, participants will be asked to complete a variety of evaluations at certain time points. In addition, there will be a randomized, double blind, crossover phase, where the particular effects of Burst-SCS and sham SCS will be evaluated. The device used to deliver Burst-SCS and sham SCS is the St. Jude Medical Invisible Trial System. Read Less

This study is a multisite randomized clinical trial of a treatment designed to reduce pain interference while simultaneously addressing relapse prevention among individuals who have co-occurring chronic pain and Opioid Use Disorder (OUD). This study will recruit approximately 160 individuals who are currently being treated in clinics specializing in the physician management of OUD. To increase generalizability of study findings and increase internal validity of the physician management component of treatment, all participants will be stabilized on buprenorphine for OUD as part of their usual clinical care. Individuals will be randomized to either: (1) enhanced usual care or (2) the integrated ACT + MBRP treatment. The investigators hypothesize that: (1) the combination of ACT + MBRP in buprenorphine-prescribed patients with chronic pain will be more efficacious across primary and secondary outcome measures in comparison to Enhanced Usual Care and (2) examination of treatment mechanism data will indicate treatment-related changes that are consistent with the theoretical models of ACT+MBRP.

After surgery to remove the eye, either by enucleation or evisceration, patients have variable levels of pain for several postoperative days. Some patients have almost no discomfort while others require significant amounts of oral narcotics and report pain of 10 out of 10 on a numerical rating scale. The current operative standard is to infiltrate the eye socket with 0.5% bupivacaine during surgery leading to several hours of postoperative analgesia. In 2011, Pacira Pharmaceuticals released a bupivacaine liposomal injectable suspension (Exparel, 1.3%) which offers sustained release of bupivacaine giving postoperative pain control for up to 72 hours. This medication has been used in numerous surgeries including inguinal hernia repair, hemorrhoidectomy, bunionectomy, breast reconstruction, and orthopedic surgery, and the literature reports improved pain control, decreased use of oral opioids, and increased patient satisfaction. There are no reports of the use of Exparel in the ophthalmic literature. The investigators propose a randomized, controlled trial to compare the postoperative pain control offered by sustained release bupivacaine to that offered by standard plain bupivacaine after enucleation or evisceration.

Single-center, randomized study will enroll 50 subjects who are scheduled for 1-3 level posterior laminectomy & fusion. Study participants who are eligible for the posterior lumbar laminectomy and fusion procedure will be scheduled and also consented as a part of the study. Participants will be stratified based on age and gender to ensure equal distribution. Read Less

Evaluation of the efficacy of LX9211 compared to placebo in reducing DPNP. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of V117957 in subjects with interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome, compared to placebo. Read Less

The aim of this study is to assess whether IW-3300 is safe and works for the treatment of interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS). The main question the study aims to answer is whether IW-3300 helps bladder pain and other symptoms (for example, bladder burning, pressure and discomfort). Subjects will be assigned to receive either the study drug or placebo by chance. Read Less
