Clinical Trial: Lumbar Facet Platelet-Rich Plasma Injection Versus Medial Branch Radiofrequency Ablation for Chronic Lumbar Facet-Mediated Pain

U.S., July 10 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07692737) titled 'Lumbar Facet Platelet-Rich Plasma Injection Versus Medial Branch Radiofrequency Ablation for Chronic Lumbar Facet-Mediated Pain' on June 18.

Brief Summary: The first clinical research effort under this initiative is a pilot randomized controlled trial comparing intra-periarticular lumbar facet platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection to standard-of-care medial branch radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for chronic lumbar facet-mediated pain.

The study is designed to:

* Use contemporary best-practice techniques for both treatment arms

* Minimize incremental risk beyond standard care

* Generate feasibility, safety, and preliminary comparati...
