Study Overview

Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood in the laboratory from patients receiving oxaliplatin for cancer may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to neurotoxicity.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying biomarkers in predicting neurotoxicity in patients with colorectal cancer receiving oxaliplatin.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Correlate predictive genetic, proteomic, and/or neurotrophic markers with neurological manifestations related to the administration of oxaliplatin in patients with colorectal carcinoma.

Secondary

  • Differentiate between risk factors predictive of acute and chronic neurotoxicity.
  • Establish a possible relationship between acute and chronic neurotoxicity.
