About this study

Official title: Effect of BurstDR and Tonic Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) on Glucose Metabolism in Patients With Neuropathic Pain

This trial investigates the effect of BurstDR and tonic spinal cord stimulation (SCS) on glucose metabolism and heart rate variability in patients with neuropathic pain.

Read the detailed description

This study investigates the effect of spinal cord stimulation (BurstDR stimulation versus tonic stimulation versus no stimulation) on glucose metabolism, insulin secretion and heart rate variability in patients with neuropathic pain. To assess insulin secretion, hyperglycaemic clamps are performed in 10 patients. Three different stimulation conditions (BurstDR, tonic and no stimulation) are tested in 10 hyperglycaemic clamps each. A total of 30 clamps are carried out.

Being tested
BurstDR stimulation, Tonic stimulation, No stimulation

What is being measured

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

  1. First and second phase of insulin secretion

    Modulation of insulin secretion by spinal cord stimulation

    Measured: Insulinsecretion during clamp (2 hours)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Root Mean Square of Successive Differences (RMSSD)

    Modulation of heart rate variability by spinal cord stimulation assessed by electrocardiography

    Measured: Heart rate variablity during stimulation (10 minutes)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing BurstDR stimulation, Tonic stimulation and No stimulation in people with Spinal Cord Stimulation and Insulin Secretion, run by University Hospital Tuebingen at 1 site in Germany.

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 4 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 May 2024. 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 Germany. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

First and second phase of insulin secretion (time frame: Insulinsecretion during clamp (2 hours)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 10 May 2024.
