Official title
A Randomized Phase III Clinical Trial of Yoga for Chemotherapy-induced Peripheral Neuropathy Treatment (YCT)
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to test whether yoga can reduce nerve pain caused by cancer treatment (chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy, or CIPN). Participants will take one of three approaches: * Yoga classes * Educational sessions on the causes and impacts of CIPN, how yoga may help with CIPN, and how different therapies may help with CIPN * Usual care with standard-of-care medications for CIPN The researchers will compare how these different approaches affect participants' balance, their risk of falls, and their quality of life. This study will also measure how much yoga can help the reduced sense of touch caused by CIPN. The functional assessments Timed Up and Go (TUG) and Chair to Stand (CTS) can be safely completed either virtually and in-person and will be mandatory for all patients. The functional assessment Functional Reach Test (FRT) and Quantitative Sensory Testing (QST) assessments that can only be completed in-person are optional at these time points.
