Gut bacteria and nerve pain after chemo
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how bacteria in your gut (microbiome) might be linked to nerve pain from chemotherapy. It is for people who are already in the OzoParQT trial and will provide a stool sample to help understand this connection.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests whether ozone treatment (a gas therapy) can help relieve numbness or tingling caused by chemotherapy. It is for people whose cancer is stable or in remission and who have had these nerve symptoms for at least 3 months.
This trial tests if adding electroacupuncture, a gentle type of acupuncture using mild electric pulses, can help relieve nerve pain, tingling, or numbness caused by chemotherapy in people with cancer.
This trial tests whether acupuncture and compression therapy can prevent nerve damage caused by taxane chemotherapy in early-stage breast cancer. It aims to reduce numbness, tingling, or pain in the hands and feet.
This trial tests whether ozone therapy can reduce painful nerve damage caused by chemotherapy. It is for adults with ongoing moderate-to-severe pain in the hands or feet after chemotherapy.
This study is testing ozone therapy as a palliative treatment for people with chronic pain who haven't found relief from other options. It aims to see if adding ozone can improve pain and quality of life.
This study looks at the bacteria in your gut (gut microbiome) to see how it is affected by pelvic side effects from cancer treatment, and whether ozone therapy might help. It compares patients who have chronic pelvic side effects and are treated with ozone (cases) to those who do not have these side effects (controls).
