Study Type : Interventional  (Clinical Trial)
Estimated Enrollment : 44 participants
Allocation: Randomized
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: None (Open Label)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: Does Sacral Neuromodulation Relieve Chronic Pelvic Cancer Pain, Compared With Medical Treatment?
Estimated Study Start Date : September 10, 2020
Estimated Primary Completion Date : September 10, 2021
Estimated Study Completion Date : December 10, 2021

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: sacral neuromodulation
Sacral neuromodulation group, will be treated with Stimulation of the sacral nerve roots by placement of a lead and generator, typically using an implanted InterStim® device that provides constant electrical stimulation to the S 2, 3 and 4 nerve roots, for 2-week trial stimulation
Device: sacral neuromodulation
Sacral neuromodulation group, N=22 will be treated with Stimulation of the sacral nerve roots by placement of a lead and generator, typically using an implanted InterStim® device that provides constant electrical stimulation to the S 2, 3 and 4 nerve roots, for 2-week trial stimulation

No Intervention: medical therapy
this group will be treated with sustained release morphine tablets for pain control



Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. The change of intensity of pain [ Time Frame: The outcome will be measured at day 15 postoperatively. ]
    The intensity of pain measured by VAS pain score (visual analogue pain scale) where 0= no pain and 10=the maximum tolerated pain
