简要总结
The aim of current study is to evaluate the possible protective role of Ketotifen against oxaliplatin-induced peripheral sensory neuropathy in patient with stage III colorectal cancer.
This study will be a randomized placebo controlled parallel study.64 patients with colorectal cancer will be randomized to 2 groups:
Group I (control group; n=32) which will receive 12 cycles of modified FOLFOX-6 regimen plus placebo tablets twice daily.
Group II (ketotifen group; n=32) which will receive modified FOLFOX-6 regimen in addition to ketotifen 2 mg daily
Blood sample collection and biochemical assessment:
- Serum IL-6 as a marker of inflammation.
- Serum superoxide dismutase (SOD) as a biomarker of oxidative stress.
- Serum neurotensin as a biomarker for neuropathy.
Assessment of oxaliplatin induced peripheral sensory neuropathy will be done through:
- The implication of National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE, Version 5, 2017) for grading of neuropathy at baseline and by the end of every two oxaliplatin cycles.
- The use of Neurotoxicity- 12 item questionnaire score (Ntx-12) from the validated Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy/Gynecologic Oncology Group "FACT/GOG-Ntx-12" at baseline and by the end of every two oxaliplatin cycles.
- The assessment of the severity of neuropathic pain through brief pain inventory short form "BPI-SF" worst item. Severity of neuropathic pain will be assessed at baseline and by the end of every two oxaliplatin cycles.
详细描述
The aim of current study is to evaluate the possible protective role of Ketotifen against oxaliplatin-induced peripheral sensory neuropathy in patient with stage III colorectal cancer.
- Study design
This study will be a Randomized placebo controlled parallel study. Sixty four patients with stage III colorectal cancer will be scheduled to receive 12 cycles of modified FOLFOX-6 (folinic acid, flurouracil and oxaliplatin). Patients will be recruited from the Oncology Department, Tanta University Hospital, Tanta, Egypt. Staging will be done according to the American Joint Committee on Cancer 7th edition staging (Edge and Compton, 2010). At admission, patients will be randomized through sealed envelopes method with assignment codes (A and B) into two groups to receive either Placebo or ketotifen in addition to the chemotherapeutic regimen:
Group one (Placebo group or code A; n=32)
Patients will receive 12 cycles of modified FOLFOX-6 regiment plus placebo tablets daily throughout the twelve chemotherapy cycles. The chemotherapy cycles will be received every 2 weeks and will be as follows:

结局指标
主要结局
variation in 12-item neurotoxicity questionnaire (Ntx-12) total score
时间窗: 6 months (at baseline and after 2 oxaliplatin cycles( the cycle is every 15 days)
the Ntx-12 questionnaire is comprised of 12 statements intended to measure the severity and impact of peripheral sensory neuropathy on patients' lives. Patients will be instructed to complete the Arabic version of the Ntx-12 and choose the number corresponding to how true each statement was for them using a likert-type scale, with 0 indicating not at all; 1, a little bit; 2, somewhat; 3, quite a bit; and 4, very much
variation in pain rating scale score
时间窗: 6 months (at baseline and after 2 oxaliplatin cycles( the cycle is every 15 days)
The assessment of the severity of neuropathic pain through brief pain inventory short form "BPI-SF" worst item. Severity of neuropathic pain will be assessed at baseline and by the end of every two oxaliplatin cycles.
the percentage of patients with peripheral sensory neuropathy grade ≥ 2
时间窗: 6 months
Grading according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology. there are 5 grades; Grade (1) is asymptomatic may be accompanied by loss of tendon reflex or paresthesia. Grade (2) is moderate symptoms which limit instrumental activities of daily life Grade (3) is severe symptoms which limit self-care activates of daily life. Grade (4) is life threatening consequences or urgent intervention indicated. Grade (5) is death. Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE, Version 5, 2017)
次要结局
- changes in serum levels of the measured biological marker Serum IL-6(6 months (after 12 cycles and the cycle is every 15 days))
