Official title
UMCC 2008.62: Prospective Pilot Study Evaluating the Use of Duloxetine for Treatment of Aromatase Inhibitor-associated Musculoskeletal Symptoms in Breast Cancer Patients
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Many women with breast cancer who are treated with aromatase inhibitor medications develop aches and pains during treatment, and some develop numbness and tingling in their hands and feet. Some examples of aromatase inhibitor medications include anastrozole (Arimidex), exemestane (Aromasin), and letrozole (Femara). Frequently, pain medications do not work very well to relieve the pain. Duloxetine (Cymbalta) is a medication that was originally developed to treat depression. It has also been found to relieve pain that occurs in people with diabetes, fibromyalgia, arthritis, and other painful conditions. In this study we are testing to see if duloxetine will help treat the pain that can occur in women treated with aromatase inhibitors.
