Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Randomized Phase III Trial of Amifostine vs. No Treatment for Platinum Induced Peripheral Neuropathy
RATIONALE: Amifostine may be effective in relieving numbness, tingling, and other symptoms
of peripheral neuropathy. It is not yet known whether amifostine is effective in treating
peripheral neuropathy in patients who have received chemotherapy for cancer.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying amifostine to see how well it works
compared to observation in relieving numbness, tingling, and other symptoms of peripheral
neuropathy in patients who have received platinum-based chemotherapy (such as cisplatin or
carboplatin) for cancer.
OBJECTIVES:
- Determine, preliminarily, whether amifostine is superior to no treatment, in terms of
improving the symptoms and/or objective findings of platinum-induced peripheral
neuropathy, in patients with cancer.
- Determine the toxicity of this drug in these patients.
OUTLINE: This is a randomized, multicenter study. Patients are randomized to 1 of 2
treatment arms.
- Arm I: Patients receive amifostine IV or subcutaneously over 3 minutes on days 1, 3,
and 5. Treatment continues for 12 weeks in the absence of unacceptable toxicity.
Patients are observed for 12 weeks.
- Arm II: Patients are observed for 24 weeks. After 24 weeks patients may cross over to
treatment as in arm I.
Quality of life is assessed at baseline and then at 6, 12, 18, and 24 weeks after study
entry.
Patients are followed at 6 and 12 weeks after study treatment, every 3 months for 2 years,
every 6 months for 3 years, and then annually thereafter.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 50-100 patients (25-50 per treatment arm) will be accrued for
this study.
