Filter by:Oxaliplatin is a chemotherapeutic agent, which is generally used in treatment of colorectal cancer. The dose limiting side effect of oxaliplatin is neurotoxicity. In this study we aimed to determine whether glutamine has role in prevention of oxaliplatin induced neuropathy.
This research trial studies heavy metal exposure in predicting peripheral neuropathy in patients with stage I-III breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy. Studying samples of blood and urine in the laboratory for heavy metal exposure from patients receiving chemotherapy may help doctors find out whether side effects from chemotherapy are related to heavy metal exposure.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether acupuncture can be effective for chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy in lymphoma or multiple myeloma patients.
This randomized phase II trial studies glutamine in preventing peripheral neuropathy in patients with multiple myeloma who are receiving bortezomib. Glutamine may help prevent peripheral neuropathy in patients receiving chemotherapy
The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of training on the exercise capability, balance performance, and microcirculation. Furthermore, to search the possible underlying mechanisms.
This is a prospective study investigating the relationship between vitamin D and peripheral neuropathy (PN) among multiple myeloma (MM) patients treated with either bortezomib or thalidomide. The study consists of a screening period of up to 14 days, followed by a single assessment visit to evaluate vitamin D levels, incidence and severity of PN, neuropathic pain, and markers of depression. Patient charts will also be utilized to assess the frequency of skeletal-related events.
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a major dose-limiting side effect of many chemotherapeutic agents including vincristine, paclitaxel, cisplatin, oxaliplatin, bortezomib and ixabepilone. Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy commonly occurs in greater than 40% of patients. To improve the peripheral neuropathy, the chemotherapy dosing is often either decreased or discontinued potentially affecting tumor responsiveness, prognosis, and survival. There is an unmet medical need for treatment of cancer patients with chemotherapy induced neuropathic pain (CINP) and the proposed study will investigate the efficacy and safety of multiple dose levels of tetrodotoxin (TTX) versus placebo in moderate to severe neuropathic pain caused by chemotherapy.
This randomized pilot clinical trial studies pregabalin in preventing acute pain syndrome in patients receiving paclitaxel. Pregabalin may control the pain caused by cancer treatment.
You are being asked to take part in this research study because you are going to be treated with oxaliplatin chemotherapy as part of your standard care. Oxaliplatin commonly causes neuropathy (numbing, tingling and/or pain).The purpose of this study is to compare the effects, good and/or bad, of venlafaxine with a placebo (an inactive agent) on oxaliplatin-induced neuropathy (numbing, tingling and/or pain)
The purpose of this study is to test whether people with symptoms of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) receive physical or psychological benefits from participating in a six-week Reiki, Yoga, Meditation, or Educational experience.
