Business Wire
NeuroMetrix, Inc. (Nasdaq: NURO) today provided an update
on its Quell® clinical program. Quell is a wearable non-invasive
neurostimulator that provides widespread analgesia for chronic
pain. In addition to delivery of therapy, the device and its
associated smartphone app track utilization and health metrics
including pain, sleep, activity and gait.
The objective of the clinical program is to build clinical
credibility for Quell technology, further scientific understanding
of its mechanism of action, and better identify Quell therapy
responders. In a study published last year in the Journal of Pain
Research, 81% of subjects reported a general improvement in their
chronic pain and 67% reported a reduction in pain medication use
after 60 days of use. Additional study findings included decreased
pain interference with sleep and walking ability. There are
currently 4 studies underway.
- Quell TENS band
for Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN). A
Feasibility Study. University of Rochester Medical Center,
University of Rochester, Rochester, NY.This open label study
is evaluating Quell efficacy, assessed by pain relief and continued
device use, in subjects with CIPN. Preliminary results were
presented at the recent American Pain Society meeting May 17-20 in
Pittsburgh, PA. Among subjects completing the first 6 weeks of the
study, 73% decided to continue using their Quell device. In
addition, statistically significant reductions in pain, tingling,
cramping and numbness were observed.
- Quell Opioid
Reduction and Pain Relief in Patients with Cancer. Scripps
Translational Science Institute, Scripps Health, San Diego,
CA.This randomized sham-controlled study is evaluating
opioid use reduction in patients with various forms of cancer pain.
The study is fully enrolled. Preliminary results are expected in Q4
’17.
- Efficacy of the
Quell Wearable Device for Chronic Low Back Pain. Brigham and
Women’s Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA.This
randomized controlled study is evaluating pain relief and quality
of life improvements in subjects with low back pain using Quell
compared to control subjects on standard therapy. The study is 75%
enrolled. Preliminary results are expected in Q4 ’17.
- Prospective
Validation of Quell Sleep/Wake Classification and Periodic Leg
Movement Detection. Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical
School, Boston, MA.This study is comparing Quell sleep
tracking to gold standard polysomnography. The study is 25%
enrolled. Preliminary results are expected in Q4 ’17.
"We believe that the conduct of clinical studies evaluating
various aspects of Quell technology is essential to continued
evolution of the platform for both treatment of chronic pain and
development of additional indications," said Shai N. Gozani,
M.D., Ph.D., President and CEO of NeuroMetrix. "We are honored
to work with outstanding academic medical centers in this effort,
and look forward to learning from these initial studies and
expanding our clinical program in the near future.”
