About this study

Official title: Long Term Outcome After Serial Lidocaine Infusion in Peripheral Neuropathic Pain : A Pilot Study

The purpose of this study to evaluated Long term outcome after serial Lidocaine infusion when compared with placebo in peripheral neuropathic pain patients in acute stage (less than 6 months) at 3 months after first time of infusion

Read the detailed description

Peripheral nerve injury may give rise to severe and long-lasting types of pains which are often resistant to treatment such as opioid, tricyclic antidepressant or anticonvulsant. Lidocaine infusion has been the one of intractable neuropathic pain treatment . My hypothesis the serial lidocaine infusion can adequate pain control and can prevent chronic pain (central sensitisation). Therefore, we designed this prospective, randomised, double-blind, controlled study to evaluate the efficacy of serial lidocaine infusion in peripheral neuropathic pain compared with placebo in long term outcome (at 3 month).

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • LidocaineDrug

    Also called Intravenous lidocaine

    Lidocaine 3 mg/kg dilute in Normal Saline to 50 ml intravenous infusion in 1 hour

  • PlaceboDrug

Study groups in NCT02217267
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Placebo groupPlacebo comparatorNormal Saline 50 ml intravenous infusion in 1 hour once a week 4 times
Receives: Drug: Placebo
Lidocaine groupActive comparatorLidocaine 3mg/kg in Normal Saline to 50 ml intravenous infusion in 1 hour once a week 4 times
Receives: Drug: Lidocaine

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pain intensity

    Pain intensity (Numerical Rating Scale; from 0-10) 0 means no pain, and 10 means worst pain imaginable.

    Measured: at 3 months after serial lidocaine infusion

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Quality of life using Utility score

    Quality of life will be assessed using EuroQol5D5L and reported as a utility score (0-1.0) "0" represents death, and "0.1" means full health

    Measured: at 3 month after serial lidocaine infusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Lidocaine in people with Peripheral Neuropathy, run by Mahidol University at 1 site in Thailand.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Nov 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Thailand. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pain intensity (time frame: at 3 months after serial lidocaine infusion). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02217267, which also lists 4 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Nov 2022.
