Key information

About this study

A randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, three-way cross-over single center study to characterize the phenotype in patients with Morton's Neuroma and to explore the effect of local administration of Xylocaine (lidocaine)

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients with a clinical diagnosis of Morton's neuroma with symptoms of at least 3 months duration in one foot (affected foot)
  • Visual analogue scale (VAS) pain-score of = 40 mm in the painful foot at daily activities during the previous week (visit 1)

Exclusion criteria

  • Allergy to lidocaine
  • Scars or other dermal conditions on the feet that may interfere with study procedures

Treatment and study plan

Xylocaine

Drug

1 mg/mL solution for injection

Placebo

Drug

solution for injection

Primary outcomes

  1. The baseline phenotypic Quantitative sensory testing (QST) variables (e.g. heat, cold, touch and mechanical pain perception). Sensory tests will be performed to measure pain and skin sensitivity by use of different pressure (mN) and temperature ( C)

    Time frame: Before and after drug injection at Day 1

  2. The baseline phenotypic Quantitative sensory testing (QST) variables (e.g. heat, cold, touch and mechanical pain perception). Sensory tests will be performed to measure pain and skin sensitivity by use of different pressure (mN) and temperature ( C)

    Time frame: Before and after drug injection at Day 14 (+/-9).

  3. The baseline phenotypic Quantitative sensory testing (QST) variables (e.g. heat, cold, touch and mechanical pain perception). Sensory tests will be performed to measure pain and skin sensitivity by use of different pressure (mN) and temperature ( C)

    Time frame: Before and after drug injection at Day 28 (+/-18).

  4. The effect of Xylocaine compared to placebo in QST variables. Sensory tests will be performed to measure pain and skin sensitivity by use of different pressure (mN) and temperature ( C)

    Time frame: After drug injection at Day 1.

  5. The effect of Xylocaine compared to placebo in QST variables. Sensory tests will be performed to measure pain and skin sensitivity by use of different pressure (mN) and temperature ( C)

    Time frame: After drug injection at Day 14 (+/-9).

  6. The effect of Xylocaine compared to placebo in QST variables. Sensory tests will be performed to measure pain and skin sensitivity by use of different pressure (mN) and temperature ( C)

    Time frame: After drug injection at Day 28 (+/-18).

Secondary outcomes

  1. Frequency/severity of adverse events

    Time frame: Day 1

  2. Frequency/severity of adverse events

    Time frame: Day 14 (+/-9)

  3. Frequency/severity of adverse events

    Time frame: Day 28 (+/-18)

  4. Frequency/severity of adverse events

    Time frame: Day 43 (+/-32)
