New treatment option for Chemotherapy Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN)
Official title Gut Microbiome Profiles in Patients with Chemotherapy-induced Neuropathy in the RCT OzoParQT (NCT06706544).
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06799351
What this study is testing
What is Ozone therapy?
Ozone therapy is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy (cipn).
Also referred to as Ozone treatment, O3/O2 gas mixture.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common and debilitating side effect of chemotherapy (CT), often requiring dose reductions or treatment interruptions, which can compromise efficacy of the planned CT (limiting its efficacy). Additionally, CIPN usually decreases patients' quality of life.
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
- Time commitment: about 16 weeks
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance.
