简要总结

RATIONALE: Acetyl-L-carnitine may prevent or lessen neuropathy caused by chemotherapy. It is not yet known whether acetyl-L-carnitine is more effective than a placebo in preventing neuropathy caused by chemotherapy.

PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying acetyl-L-carnitine to see how well it works compared with a placebo in preventing neuropathy in women with stage I, stage II, or stage III breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy.

详细描述

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Compare whether treatment with acetyl-L-carnitine hydrochloride vs placebo prevents symptoms of neuropathy as measured by the 11-item neurotoxicity component of the FACT-Taxane Questionnaire at 12 weeks after study registration in women with stage I, II, or IIIA breast cancer undergoing adjuvant taxane-based chemotherapy.

Secondary

  • Compare the functional status of these patients using the Trial Outcome Index from the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy (FACT)-Taxane Questionnaire.
  • Compare fatigue in these patients using the Function Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy (FACIT)-Fatigue Symptom Module.

结局指标

主要结局

12-week FACT-Taxane Neurotoxicity Model-adjusted Score in ALC and Placebo Groups

时间窗: 12 weeks post-registration

Compare whether treatment with acetyl-L-carnitine hydrochloride vs placebo prevents symptoms of neuropathy as measured by the 11-item neurotoxicity (NTX) component of the Functional Assesment of Cancer Therapy (FACT)-Taxane Questionnaire at 12 weeks after study registration in women with breast cancer undergoing adjuvant taxane-based chemotherapy. Linear regression model adjusted for baseline score, taxane regiment, and age. Lower scores indicate worse CIPN. Total possible range is 0 to 64.

次要结局

  • 12-week FACT-Trial Outcome Index(TOI) Functional Status Model-adjusted Score in ALC and Placebo Groups(12 weeks post-registration)
  • 12-week FACIT-fatigue Model-adjusted Score in ALC and Placebo Groups(12 weeks post-registration)
