A Study of the Efficacy and Safety of PerOx Quench on the Prevention of Oxaliplatin Treatment Induced Neuropathy

Not Applicable

Terminated

• Conditions: Neuropathy; Advanced Gastric Cancer; Colorectal Cancer
• Interventions: Dietary Supplement: PerOx Quench; Dietary Supplement: PerOx Quench Placebo

• Registration Number: NCT02560740
• Lead Sponsor: SMR Biotech Co., Ltd.

Brief Summary

Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a progressive, enduring, and often irreversible condition featuring pain, numbness, tingling and sensitivity to cold in the hands and feet (sometimes progressing to the arms and legs) that afflicts between 30 and 40 percent of patients undergoing chemotherapy.

American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) guidance on The Journal of Clinical Oncology (JCO, 2014 April 14) does not recommend any prophylaxis regimen for CIPN.

PerOx Quench has unique membrane protection and anti-oxidative function as a special food, that's why to try to explore its preventive effects on CIPN prevention induced by Oxaliplatin for colorectal cancer or gastric cancer chemotherapy.

Detailed Description

This study uses two stage group-sequential sampling design, based on current data, assumed the CIPN incidence rate is 50% in placebo arm, while 20% in PerOx Quench arm（60% reduction）, set a=0.05，80％ power, random allocation ratio is 1:1, obtained the subjects number is 41（total 82) by PASS 11 software for superior design; considering 10% drop out rate, final number of subjects totally is 90.

Study & Design

• Study Design: PARALLEL

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
PerOx Arm	PerOx Quench	PerOx Quench arm 4g/sachet each time by water, q6h
Comparative Arm	PerOx Quench Placebo	PerOx Quench placebo 4g/sachet each time by water, q6h

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Evaluation of Oxaliplatin-induced Peripheral Neuropathy incidence rate on the 35 day in 2 arms.	35 day after randomization	Peripheral neuropathy incidence rate was measured by frequency and percentage of any Oxaliplatin-induced Peripheral Neuropathy symptoms.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Evaluation of Oxaliplatin-induced Peripheral Neuropathy severity by subjects on the 35 day in 2 arms.	35 day after randomization	Peripheral neuropathy severity by subjects was measured by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score (Scores range from 0 \[no symptom\] to 10 \[worst possible symptom\]).
Evaluation of subjects Eastern Cooperation Oncology Group-Performance Score (ECOG-PS) difference in 2 arms on the 35 day.	35 day after randomization	Eastern Cooperation Oncology Group-Performance Score (ECOG-PS) will be measured by ECOG-PS score.
Evaluation of subjects quality of life difference in 2 arms on the 35 day.	35 day after randomization	Quality of Life (QoL) will be measured by European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer quality of life questionaire C30 (EORTCQLQ-C30) questionnaire.
Evaluation of Oxaliplatin-induced Peripheral Neuropathy severity by PI on the 35 day in 2 arms.	35 day after randomization	Peripheral neuropathy severity by PI was measured by each related symptom grading, and the most serious symptom will be evaluated by National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI-CTC) classification.
Evaluation of the Adverse Events (AEs) incidence rate on 35 day in 2 arms.	Sign ICF to 35 day after randomization	The Adverse Events (AEs) incidence rate was measured by frequency and percentage of participants with Treatment-Related Grade 3 or above Adverse Events during this trial. The grade of Adverse Events was assessed by Common Toxicity Criteria Adverse Event (CTCAE) v4.0.
