Official title
Feasibility of Self-Applied Vagus Nerve Stimulation for Chemotherapy Induced Peripheral Neuropathy
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of using a portable device at home to self-administer transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS). This handheld device has two small electrodes that are placed on specific areas of the outer ear. This device delivers a mild electrical stimulation to the vagus nerve through the ear. This study will explore how taVNS may affect symptoms of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). Participants will be assigned to one of two cohorts based on the presence of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). Participants with CIPN will be placed in the intervention cohort (n=24) and will complete a 2-week trial of daily self-applied taVNS. Participants without CIPN will be placed in the registry cohort (n=12) and will complete study measurements without receiving the intervention. The registry cohort will not receive the taVNS intervention but will undergo identical physiological assessments at baseline and at a 2 week follow up to control for testing effects and biological variability.
