Nocebo effects are extremely common in clinical practice, and they are induced by a patient’s negative expectancies about a treatment outcome. They may occur after an inert treatment, or after the administration of a pharmacologically active substance, and modulate the treatment outcome. Nocebo effects in clinical practice manifest themselves in the deterioration of a pre-existing symptomatology or in the development of new symptoms that are often considered as nonspecific side effects and are ascribed to the medical regimen. Nocebo responses can be induced by components of the therapeutic encounter, e.g. the communication of the diagnosis, information about the treatment, the disclosure of risks and benefits of the treatment, or the verbal interaction during the treatment. This chapter reviews empirical evidence from clinical populations that documents nocebo effects in the different stages of the therapeutic process. Based on this review, it suggests strategies for the minimization of nocebo effects in clinical practice.

The placebo effect continues to fascinate scientists, scholars, and clinicians, resulting in an impressive amount of research, mainly in the field of pain. While recent experimental and clinical studies have unraveled salient aspects of the neurobiological substrates and clinical relevance of pain and placebo analgesia, an authoritative source remained lacking until now. By presenting and integrating a broad range of research, Placebo and Pain enhances readers’ knowledge about placebo and nocebo effects, reexamines the methodology of clinical trials, and improves the therapeutic approaches for patients suffering from pain. Review for Placebo and Pain:“This ambitious book is the first comprehensive and unified presentation of the placebo and nocebo phenomena in the area of pain. Written by the international leading experts in the field, the book provides an accurate up-to-date [work] on placebo and pain dealing with current perspectives and future challenging issues. --Ted Kaptchuk, Associate Professor of Medicine, Harvard Medical School Contains historical aspects of the placebo effect Discusses biological and psychological mechanisms of placebo analgesic responses Reviews implications of the placebo effect for clinical research and pain management Includes methodological and ethical aspects of the placebo effect

In its extensively revised and updated Second Edition, this book provides a solid foundation for readers interested in clinical research. Discussion encompasses genetic, pharmacoepidemiologic and implementation research. All chapters have been updated with new information and many new tables have been added to elucidate key points. The book now offers discussion on how to handle missing data when analyzing results, and coverage of Adaptive Designs and Effectiveness Designs and new sections on Comparative Effectiveness Research and Pragmatic Trials. Chapter 6 includes new material on Phase 0 Trials, expanded coverage of Futility Trials, a discussion of Medical Device approval, Off Label Drug use and the role of the FDA in regulating advertising. Additional new information includes the role of pill color and shape in association with the placebo effect and an examination of issues surrounding minority recruitment. The final chapter offers a new section on manuscript preparation along with a discussion of various guidelines being adopted by journals: CONSORT, STROBE, PRISMA, MOOSE and others; and coverage of Conflicts of Interest, Authorship, Coercive Citation, and Disclosures in Industry-Related Associations. Building on the strengths of its predecessor in its comprehensive approach and authoritative advice, the new edition offers more of what has made this book a popular, trusted resource for students and working researchers alike.

The defining circumstances and reasons for promoting healing processes based on placebo and avoiding (undesirable) nocebo effects in clinical practice represent a challenge for translational and patient-oriented medicine. Exploiting placebos and placebo effects for the benefit of the patient requires a rigorous evaluation of potential benefits and harms associated with these interventions. Moreover, any attempts to harness placebo benefits and mitigate nocebo effects in clinical practice should be done consistently with professional norms and integrity, and ethical-legal requirements of informed consent. This chapter systematically discusses the complex issue of professional and ethical requirements in using placebos and placebo effects in pain-related research and practices. Within this scope, some important questions need to be addressed as well: (a) Can placebo analgesic effects produce clinically significant benefits? (b) What translational research is being done, or should be done? (c) What work is being done in this area to enable and encourage doctors to incorporate ethically the concept of placebo and nocebo effects into their work?

Due to the recent explosion of placebo research at many levels the Editors believe that a volume on Placebo would be a good addition to the Handbook of Experimental Pharmacology series. In particular, this volume will be built up on a meeting on Placebo which will be held in Tuebingen (Germany) in January 2013, and where the most prominent researchers in this field will present and exchange their ideas. The authors who will be invited to write chapters for this volume will be the very same speakers at this meeting, thus guaranteeing high standard and excellence in the topic that will be treated. The approach of the book is mainly pharmacological, including basic research and clinical trials, and the contents range from different medical conditions and systems, such as pain and the immune system, to different experimental approaches, like in vivo receptor binding and pharmacological/behavioral conditioning. Overall, the volume will give an idea of modern placebo research, of timely concepts in both experimental and clinical pharmacology, as well as of modern methods and tools in neuroscience.
