View clinical trials related to Peripheral Neuropathy.
Filter by:This study is being done because peripheral neuropathy, a condition that interrupts sensation in your limbs, is a common side effect of paclitaxel. There is some evidence that alpha lipoic acid (ALA), an antioxidant compound, protects neurons after exposure to paclitaxel. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of ALA and to find the best dose of ALA in patients that receive chemotherapy.
RATIONALE: Scrambler therapy may help relieve pain from peripheral neuropathy caused by chemotherapy. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well MC5-A scrambler therapy works in reducing peripheral neuropathy caused by chemotherapy
The goal of this study is to learn if using a non-invasive therapy called "neurofeedback training" can help teach patients ways to modify their own brain waves to decrease the perception of pain and improve quality of life.
This study is a drug trial of ethosuximide as a painkiller if you develop pain as a side effect of chemotherapy. Ethosuximide will be compared against placebo (an inactive substance) to test whether any response is a true effect of the drug, and not a 'placebo effect'.
RATIONALE: Cryotherapy may help prevent peripheral neuropathy or nail toxicity in patients receiving chemotherapy. PURPOSE: This clinical trial studies cryotherapy in preventing peripheral neuropathy and nail toxicity in patients with breast cancer who are receiving paclitaxel.
RATIONALE: Electrical stimulation pain therapy may help relieve chronic pain and numbness caused by chemotherapy. PURPOSE: This pilot trial studies electrical stimulation pain therapy in treating chronic pain and numbness caused by chemotherapy in patients with cancer.
This is an open-label, randomized, multi-center clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy in peripheral neuropathies patients treated with Mecobalamin Injection
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether patients with diabetes-related peripheral neuropathic pain also have non-recognized damage to the intestine caused by autonomic neuropathy. The model will shed light on aspects of peripheral nerve injuries on both somatic and as well as visceral sensory nerves. Classical autonomic parameters from electrocardiography (ECG) and Holter (24-h ECG and blood pressure) are compared with peripheral nerve injuries. The damage of autonomic nerves often recognized late in the course when patients develop gastroparesis, however an earlier recognition of this nerve damage may help clarifying the fundamental pathomechanisms and thereby optimize treatment for this patient group in the future.
This study theorized that a low dose of vaporized cannabis could alleviate nerve injury pain.
The purpose of this research study is to determine if treatment with Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is effective in treating the pain, numbness or tingling patients are experiencing following their chemotherapy. The investigators would also like to know the number of treatments that were needed in order to reduce their symptoms.
