Clinical Trial Summary

The primary objective of this trial is to compare the efficacy of 2 analgesic strategies, based on percutaneous cryotherapy plus medical supportive care versus medical supportive care alone in the treatment of cancer patients with painful musculoskeletal metastasis.


Clinical Trial Description

There is a substantial body of evidences that support the rationale for percutaneous cryotherapy in the treatment of painful musculoskeletal metastasis. Since the available results are based exclusively on retrospective and single-arm prospective studies, all authors agree that preliminary data deserves further investigation to provide high level evidences. Current knowledge, along with the need for relieving patients' pain, already leads interventional radiologists to introduce analgesic cryotherapy in their routine practice. Our team usually notes a clinically significant pain relief that is immediate, continuous and prolonged in these patients. However, facing the lack of comparative studies, this technique is still proposed to patients with poor life-expectancy. Percutaneous cryotherapy is an innovative strategy in the treatment of patients with uncontrolled painful metastases. It could provide a significant and durable pain relief and a better quality of life, earlier in the patient's care pathway. The study group hypotheses that an early procedure of percutaneous cryotherapy is able to provide painful patients with better and prolonged analgesia and quality of life. A prospective controlled study is proposed with two analgesic strategies (percutaneous cryotherapy plus medical supportive care versus medical supportive care alone) in patients with a painful metastasis not controlled by conventional analgesia strategy. ;
