Official title
Topical Cannabidiol (CBD) for the Treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy: A Randomized Placebo-Controlled Pilot Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This clinical trial compares topical cannabidiol to placebo in improving chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy, or painful sensations in your hands or feet due to chemotherapy. Peripheral neuropathy is a nerve problem that causes pain, numbness, tingling, swelling, or muscle weakness in different parts of the body. It usually begins in the hands or feet and gets worse over time. Peripheral neuropathy caused by chemotherapy is called chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). CIPN is commonly seen in patients receiving certain chemotherapy medications and is hard to treat. Medications commonly used to treat CIPN have limited benefits and may cause significant side effects. A small report showed that topical cannabidiol may help treat neuropathy in patients with diabetes. This study is being done to determine if cannabidiol cream can help improve the symptoms of CIPN.
