Trial Outcomes & Findings for Effects of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation on Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (NCT NCT04367480)

NCT ID: NCT04367480

Last Updated: 2023-09-08

Results Overview

Measured by the mean European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer-CIPN20 (EORTC-CIPN20). The effects of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) on CIPN will be estimated using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). A 20 -item patient self -report tool to assess symptoms and function in the sensory, motor and autonomic domains. Two items, Q49 and Q50, were excluded from the total score calculation. Q49 was relevant only for individuals who could drive, and Q50 was relevant only for men. 0 - 72, a higher score indicates worse neuropathy

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 weeks after the start of intervention

Population: Participants who completed the baseline assessment were included in the analysis (N=141) except one extreme outlier that was removed from the Active TENS group due to data discordance among similar measures at baseline.

Measured by the mean European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer-CIPN20 (EORTC-CIPN20). The effects of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) on CIPN will be estimated using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). A 20 -item patient self -report tool to assess symptoms and function in the sensory, motor and autonomic domains. Two items, Q49 and Q50, were excluded from the total score calculation. Q49 was relevant only for individuals who could drive, and Q50 was relevant only for men. 0 - 72, a higher score indicates worse neuropathy

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 weeks after the start of intervention

Population: All participants who completed the study were included in the analysis, except one who did not provide Hot/Burning pain data at post-intervention.

Measured by the CIPN Symptom Inventory; numeric rating scale of 0-10. Higher score is worse. The effects of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) on hot/burning pain will be estimated using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) for 2 study populations: (1) Study Completers (N: Active TENS=67, Placebo TENS=62) and (2) participants who reported at least 4 out of 10 at baseline for Hot/Burning Pain. (N: Active TENS=22, Placebo TENS=22).
