The purpose of this study is to determine feasibility and acceptability of a six-week at-home light therapy protocol in childhood cancer survivors, to identify facilitators and barriers to implementing this intervention, and to measure signs and symptoms of Chemotherapy Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN) at baseline and following completion of the …
This is a pilot, prospective, randomized study evaluating the feasibility and acceptability of incorporating hemp-derived cannabidiol (CBD) supplementation to prevent oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy (OIPN) in patients receiving oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy for colorectal cancer (CRC). Participants will be randomized to receive either CBD capsules in addition to standard therapy or standard therapy …
This study is being done to evaluate the potential benefits of using electroacupuncture to reduce the severity of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy for patients with peripheral neuropathy after chemotherapy.
Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is an inflammation of the blood vessels. A dangerous complication is sudden vision loss due to insufficient blood supply to the optic nerve. However, it is often difficult to distinguish acute vision loss due to GCA from a similar condition of insufficient blood supply to the …
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) affects over 230 million adults worldwide and is a highly morbid, costly, and disabling condition. Ischemic leg pain drives disability in PAD patients and results from oxygen supply-demand mismatch, autonomic dysfunction, and muscle breakdown. This leg pain, which is unresponsive to traditional pharmacotherapy, limits the patient's …
We examine patients with different autonomic neuropathies and Ehlers Danlos syndromes compared to healthy controls at three different points over time (baseline, after 3 months and after 1.5 years) to gain knowledge about the course of this disease and understand its pathophysiology, with a focus on Small Fiber neuropathy. Moreover …
Due to well-proven survival benefit, paclitaxel and other taxane-based chemotherapies are first-line agents for both the adjuvant and neoadjuvant treatment of early stage breast cancer. Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a frequent and disabling side effect of taxane anticancer agents. No established strategy exists for CIPN prevention. This study is …
The investigators aim to determine the effect of cryotherapy wraps plus compression therapy (henceforth referred to as cryocompression) versus cryotherapy wraps alone on the incidence and degree of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy in patients with gynecologic cancer using a noninferiority design. The investigators also aim to determine the effect of cryocompression …
Breast cancer ranks first in Taiwan's top ten gynecological cancers. Chemotherapy is a standard treatment method for colorectal cancer and breast cancer, but while destroying cancer cells, it also destroys healthy cells, resulting in side effects. Peripheral neuropathy can lead to peripheral nerve damage and decreased activity, which affects the …
This phase II trial investigates how well duloxetine and neurofeedback training work in treating patients with chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy. Duloxetine is a type of serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor that increases the amount of certain chemicals in the brain that help relieve depression and peripheral neuropathy. Neurofeedback training is …
