Lower Back Pain clinical trials at University of California Health

9 in progress, 7 open to eligible people

Showing trials for

  • DBS of the SCC for the Treatment of Medically Refractory CLBP

    open to eligible people ages 40-75

    The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of deep brain stimulation of the subgenual cingulate cortex for the treatment of chronic medically-refractory low back pain using a randomized double-blind crossover…

  • Phenotyping Response to Spinal Cord Stimulation in Chronic Low Back Pain

    open to eligible people ages 18-80

    Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is a debilitating condition and costly to treat. Long-term drug treatment often fails due to habituation, breakthrough of pain, or adverse effects of drug treatment. Opioid use to manage this pain has contributed to the…
