Giant axonal neuropathy (GAN) is a rare pediatric disorder caused by autosomal recessive mutations in the GAN gene. GAN is a multisystem, neurodegenerative disorder affecting the peripheral nervous system (PNS), central nervous system (CNS) and autonomic nervous system (ANS). GAN is a fatal disease with many patients not surviving past …
This study examines how spinal cord stimulation (SCS) affects pain level and quality of life in patients experiencing chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). CIPN is a nerve problem and one of the potential side effects of chemotherapy that causes pain, numbness, tingling, swelling, or muscle weakness in different parts of the …
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) (including taxanes, platinum, al pervenche from Madagascar alkaloids...), is a frequent secondary effect of treatments: 68% at 1-month post-chemotherapy, 60% at 3 months and 30% after 6 months. Symptoms associated with CIPN are usually symmetric and bilateral (typical distribution in "gloves and socks") inducing sensory alterations, …
The phase II trial evaluates the effectiveness of cryocompression therapy alone or in combination with cilostazol in preventing paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy (numbness, pain or tingling in the feet and hands) for patients with gynecologic cancers. Peripheral neuropathy is a common side effect of many chemotherapeutic agents, including paclitaxel. Paclitaxel is …
This clinical trial assesses the impact of a family caregiver-delivered massage technique for use in cancer survivors with chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). CIPN is a common cancer treatment side effect that impairs quality of life and daily functioning. Aside from the relatively transient effects of chemotherapy treatment (e.g., nausea, diarrhea, …
The investigators hypothesize that Scrambler therapy with duloxetine, compared to duloxetine-based usual care, will result in greater improvement in CIPN as measured by the BPI-Short Form. In addition, the investigators will further assess pain using the EORTC CIPN-20 and determine whether Scrambler therapy results in improved levels of function as …
Neuropathy is a costly and disabling health issue, which consists of a degeneration of the peripheral nerves. Even though the causes may be different, such as diabetes or amputation, the consequences for neuropathic patients are multiple and extremely debilitating. Among the alarming symptoms it implicates, chronic pain and sensory loss …
Distal symmetric polyneuropathy, also known as diabetic neuropathy, is the most common neurological complication of diabetes and a main cause of morbidity. The condition leads to gradual loss of function of the longest nerve fibers that limits function and decreases quality of life. Symptoms present distally and symmetrically in toes …
This study aims to evaluate the possible beneficial role of coenzyme Q10 against oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy in patients with colorectal cancer.
