Our Research
In our phase 3 randomised double blind controlled clinical trial (NCT01528332) conducted in three outpatient pain centres in Germany, 171 patients with chronic back pain were treated with our patented blue light or a Control stimulation. The results showed that compared to the control group, patients treated with blue light for over 2 weeks had a statistically significant decrease in their pain (p<0.05, two-sided). No substantial differences in safety outcomes were seen between groups treated with the Active and the Control device (data on file).
These data were confirmed in an observational study that included 633 patients treated with blue light in 77 outpatient pain centres in Germany. After 2 weeks of treatment, there was a statistically significant pain reduction by an average pain reduction of 28% (p<0.001). In addition, there was a significant reduction in pain-related restrictions in daily functioning (p<0.001) paralleled by a significant improvement in quality-of-life.
What Is the Next ANALGESIX® Clinical Trial?
Heat2Move is preparing the launch of a new clinical trial in Germany and the Netherlands. This study is aimed to study the efficacy and safety of AnalgesiX® system in chronic low back pain and to demonstrate its effects beyond pain intensity only.
Stay tuned for more detailed information on this trial.
