Filter by:This study evaluates the possibility to reduce the total dose of dexamethasone, when administered with NEPA, to prevent chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) patients receiving a cisplatin-based chemotherapy
This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of high dose inorganic selenium in preventing and relieving chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) in platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian, fallopian, or primary peritoneal cancer patients. This study will be conducted as a phase III randomized controlled trial in platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian, fallopian, or primary peritoneal cancer patients who are expected to undergo paclitaxel-carboplatin chemotherapy. A total of 68 patients need to be enrolled in this study. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the frequency of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. The secondary objectives are the evaluation of the severity of peripheral neuropathy and the quality of life to show that selenium is effective in preventing and relieving peripheral neuropathy induced by paclitaxel. Positive results in this study will lead to further studies investigating the effect of selenium on other chemotherapies that can induce peripheral neuropathy.
Chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is among the most feared side effects to cancer treatment. The development of CIPN can lead to discontinuation or omission of antineoplastic drugs, possibly affecting efficacy of cancer treatment. There is a lack of knowledge about the natural course of CIPN and to this date, there are no available methods for the early detection of CIPN. With no effective prevention or treatment options, the condition has severe impact on patient quality of life and healthcare expenditure. This study will investigate the natural course of paclitaxel- and oxaliplatin induced peripheral neuropathy using novel diagnostic techniques. Multi-frequency vibrational technology has provided an objective method for the early detection of diabetic neuropathy. Our study will test the feasibility of this method within the field of clinical oncology and CIPN.
This is a single-center, multidisciplinary, open-label, single-arm prospective clinical study.
The purpose of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group phase II trial is to determine whether nicotinamide riboside (NIAGEN®, NR) can ameliorate persistent peripheral neuropathy in cancer survivors who have completed chemotherapy with taxane or platinum-complex compounds between 1 and 12 months earlier.
Aim of this phase III trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of dronabinol (orally administered tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)) as adjuvant therapy to first-line standard chemotherapy in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer for improvement of chemotherapy- and tumor-related symptoms applicated by individual titration up to the maximum tolerated dose.
Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Hetrombopag in subjects with chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia receiving chemotherapy for the treatment of solid tumors.
This trial studies how well cryocompression therapy works in reducing bortezomib-induced peripheral neuropathy in patients with multiple myeloma. Peripheral neuropathy (nerve pain or tingling in hands or feet) is a common side effect of chemotherapy such as bortezomib that affects the quality of life and amount of chemotherapy that can be given to many cancer patients. Cryocompression is a treatment where a glove and a boot are worn to cool down the skin. This cooling treatment is safe and does not interfere with chemotherapy treatment. Daily cryocompression therapy may reduce neuropathy caused by bortezomib chemotherapy.
This is a single center, open-label, phase 1 study to determine the safety and feasibility of infusing CART22-65s with or without huCART19 after administration of lymphodepleting chemotherapy in adult patients with relapsed or refractory B-ALL.
this work is looking for the effect of tDCS of the motor cortex on the chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting in cancer breast patients
