Study summary
Ziconotide is a strong analgesic marketed since 2005 in Europe and reserved for the intrathecal route. Its efficacy has been proven in particular by 3 randomized clinical studies. It is particularly effective on neuropathic pain and its main advantages are its power of action, the absence of bone marrow toxicity, and the absence of respiratory depression. In addition, there were no signs of withdrawal when stopping the drug, or of tachyphylaxis. However, during these studies many adverse reactions were highlighted, especially neuropsychiatric which limited its use. This toxicity was mainly related to the administration of too high doses, especially at the start of treatment (too fast titration). In recent years, the use of intrathecal ziconotide has become a pertinent option. Indeed, it is recommended as first-line among the intrathecal treatment options. However, there is a lack of data on the current use of ziconotide in current practice. The objective of the study will be to describe the practical methods of using intrathecal treatments containing ziconotide.

Outcomes
Describe the practical methods of using intrathecal treatments containing ziconotide: indication, initial intrathecal analgesic treatment and evolution of intrathecal analgesic treatment, efficacy and safety in the real clinical practice and monitoring.
Time frame · 7 years
Indication, initial intrathecal analgesic treatment and evolution of intrathecal analgesic treatment and monitoring.
Describe the tolerability to intrathecal ziconotide treatment
Time frame · 7 years
Tolerability will be assessed by asking questions, clinical examination and paraclinical examinations at each visit
Describe the efficacy on pain of intrathecal ziconotide treatment
Time frame · 7 years
The efficacy of the analgesic treatment is measured based on the numeric pain rating scale (0 to 10) at start of Ziconotide, 1, 3, 6, 12 months, and every 12 months thereafter
Estimate the duration of treatment according to the indication
Time frame · 7 years
Time between the first and last date of administration of intrathecal ziconotide during study.
Subgroup comparative analysis
Time frame · 7 years
Subgroup comparative analysis will be conducted according to initial characteristics, doses course progress of ziconotide and according to efficacy and tolerability.
Responders profile detection
Time frame · 7 years
Responders profile according to efficacy on pain of intrathecal ziconotide treatment
Describe quality of life under ziconotide treatment
Time frame · 7 years
f) The Quality of life will be assessed by EQ5D-5L questionnaires under intrathecal ziconotide treatment, at 1, 3, 6, 12 months, and every 12 months thereafter until the registry remains open
