Official title
Topical Menthol for Chemotherapy Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN): A Randomized, Placebo Controlled Phase II Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Primary Objective: To assess whether six-week treatment with twice daily topical Menthol application will decrease neuropathic pain as measured by the change in Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form (BPI-SF worst pain score), following or during neoadjuvant/adjuvant chemotherapy with taxane or platinum-based regimens among breast, gastrointestinal or gynecologic cancer patients. Secondary objectives: * To compare change in patient-reported outcomes: overall BPI-SF scales, EORTC-CIPN20, European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Chemotherapy Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30), Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS-29) scores between study groups. * To compare changes in dose delivery and early treatment discontinuation rates between study groups. * To compare objective sensory and motor functional change from baseline with the use of quantitative neurosensory testing. * To perform an exploratory analysis evaluating the interaction between treatment and chemotherapy type.
