Safety and Efficacy of MORA Cure LBP in Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain (MORACureLBP)
17 de junio de 2026 actualizado por: EverEx Inc.
A Prospective, Randomized, Open-label, Multicenter, Controlled, Comparative, Confirmatory Trial of MORA Cure in Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain: 8-week Evaluation and 12-week Follow-up
This is a prospective, randomized, open-label, multicenter, controlled, comparative, confirmatory clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of MORA Cure LBP, a multidisciplinary digital therapeutic, in patients with chronic low back pain.
Eligible participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either the experimental group using MORA Cure LBP or the control group receiving exercise education and self-exercise materials. The treatment period is 8 weeks, followed by a 4-week observation period, for a total study period of 12 weeks from baseline. The primary efficacy endpoint is usual low back pain intensity during the past week measured by the 11-point Numeric Pain Rating Scale at Week 8.

Descripción detallada
MORA Cure LBP is a software-based digital therapeutic intended to improve symptoms in patients with chronic low back pain by providing app-based exercise therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. The investigational medical device consists of a patient mobile application and a clinician web program. Through the clinician web program, investigators can prescribe rehabilitation programs and monitor participants.
Participants assigned to the experimental group will use MORA Cure LBP for 8 weeks. Use of the device at least 3 times per week is recommended. After the 8-week treatment period, participants may continue to use available content during the follow-up observation period through Week 12.
Participants assigned to the control group will receive disease education, self-exercise education, and self-exercise materials. They will perform self-exercise and record exercise performance in a self-exercise diary.
Participants will attend 3 to 5 visits, including screening, baseline, Week 4, Week 8, and Week 12. The Week 4 visit may be conducted as a televisit. The Week 8 visit is the primary evaluation time point, and the Week 12 visit is the follow-up evaluation time point.
