简要总结
RATIONALE: A lidocaine patch may be effective in relieving numbness, tingling, and other symptoms of neuropathy. It is not yet known whether a lidocaine patch is effective in treating neuropathy in patients who have undergone surgery for cancer.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying lidocaine patch to see how well it works compared to a placebo patch in relieving numbness, tingling, and other symptoms of neuropathy in patients who have undergone surgery for cancer.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
- Determine whether a lidocaine patch vs placebo improves postsurgical neuropathic pain in cancer patients.
- Compare the toxic effects of these regimens in these patients.
- Compare the effect of these regimens on mood states, functional abilities, and overall quality of life of these patients.
OUTLINE: This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Patients are stratified according to etiology of pain (breast surgery vs lung surgery vs amputation vs other), duration of pain (1-3 months vs 4-6 months vs more than 6 months), and current analgesic regimen (opioids [including tramadol] vs antidepressants vs anticonvulsants vs combination vs other vs none). Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.
- Arm I: Patients receive a lidocaine transdermal patch (up to 3 patches) applied directly to the painful area for 18 hours once daily. Treatment continues for 4 weeks in the absence of unacceptable toxicity. At the end of week 4, patients cross over to arm II.
- Arm II: Patients receive a placebo transdermal patch applied to the painful area as in arm I. At the end of week 4, patients cross over to arm I.
Pain and quality of life are assessed at baseline and weeks 4 and 8.

研究组 & 干预措施
Lidocaine patch
Participants will be instructed to apply a patch or patches (up to 3 maximum simultaneously) directly to the affected area. The patch(es) should be applied during awake hours and then left on continuously for approximately 18 hours or until usual bedtime sleep.
干预措施: lidocaine (Drug)
Placebo patch
Participants will be instructed to apply a patch or patches (up to 3 maximum simultaneously) directly to the affected area. The patch(es) should be applied during awake hours and then left on continuously for approximately 18 hours or until usual bedtime sleep.
