Who can participate
This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.
Inclusion criteria
- Male or female participant ≥ 18 years of age at time of Screening.
- A diagnosis of CRPS-1 according to the clinical Budapest Criteria as recommended by the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP), as well as no known peripheral nerve injury. Signs and symptoms of CRPS must apply to a single identified affected limb (i.e., arm, hand, wrist, leg, ankle or foot) and must demonstrate asymmetry with respect to the contralateral limb.
- Single affected limb at the Screening and Randomization Visits meeting the following warm subtype criteria:
- Edema in the affected limb
- AND ≥ 2 of the following:
- Obvious redness in the affected region relative to the same region on the contralateral limb on inspection
- ≥ 1°C increase in temperature on the affected limb relative to the contralateral limb
- Moderate-to-severe edema
- ≤ 6 months since the onset of CRPS symptoms relative to the Randomization visit
- Increased uptake in the involved limb compared to the contralateral limb on TPBS (phase 2 and/or phase 3) during Screening. A historic scan not older than 3 months prior to Randomization Visit is acceptable, if available and of sufficient quality for a central read.
- Women of childbearing potential must:
- Be nonpregnant.
- Be nonlactating.
- Agree to use a highly effective method of contraception and for at least 6 months following last investigational product administration. Exception: Women exclusively engaging in same sex sexual activities are not required to meet this criterion.
- Adequate compliance with the eDiary during the screening period.
Exclusion criteria
- A current or prior diagnosis of CRPS Type 2 or CRPS not otherwise specified (CRPS NOS), or whose CRPS has no known inciting event, or CRPS-1 without criteria of the warm subtype at the time of Screening.
- ≥ 40 points on the Pain Catastrophizing Scale.
- Prior use of neridronate or participation in a clinical study where the participant may have received neridronate.
- The use of any of the following treatments within the timeframe specified from Randomization Visit:
- Within the last 12 months:
- IV bisphosphonates
- IV immunoglobulin
- Within the last 6 months:
- Any oral bisphosphonate, denosumab (Prolia®) or receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL) inhibitors (e.g., denosumab biosimilar compounds)
- Radiation therapy to the head or neck
- Participants currently taking or planning to be treated with prohibited concomitant medications/therapies, or not likely able to follow the protocol restrictions for use of concomitant treatment.
- Severely impaired renal function.
- Hypocalcemia.
- Vitamin D deficiency.
- Significant dental findings such as an unhealed tooth extraction site.
- Eye inflammation.
- Significantly elevated liver-related lab tests or evidence of significant liver disease.
- Clinically unstable cardiac disease.
- Any known conditions, from 3 months prior to Screening Visit or to the Randomization Visit, that may interfere with the assessment of CRPS-1, CRPS-related pain, safety, or other trial assessments.

Frequently asked questions
What is a clinical trial?
A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.
Is it safe to participate?
Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.
Will I be compensated?
Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.
Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?
When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.
Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?
Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.
How long does a clinical trial last?
Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
