Compression stockings to prevent nerve damage from ADC therapy
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests whether wearing compression stockings can help prevent nerve damage (peripheral neuropathy) caused by a type of chemotherapy called antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) in people with advanced cancers like bladder cancer. If you are starting treatment with an ADC and don't have existing nerve problems, you may be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older with an advanced cancer (such as bladder cancer) that will be treated with a specific type of ADC drug (like EV, DV, or BV).
- You have no or very mild nerve damage (peripheral neuropathy) symptoms before starting the trial.
- You haven't taken other nerve-damaging drugs in the past 2 months.
- Your cancer is stable and you are expected to live at least 3 more months.
- You are willing to follow the study plan and can provide written consent.
- You do not have severe diabetes, poor circulation, nerve compression disorders, or other serious health issues listed in the exclusion criteria.

This study compares a new antibody-drug conjugate (sacituzumab tirumotecan) to other similar drugs for advanced bladder cancer that hasn't responded to prior treatment. It aims to see which is more effective and safe.
This trial tests if wearing special cooling gloves and socks during chemotherapy can help prevent nerve damage, tingling, or numbness in your hands and feet. It is for people with breast or gynecologic cancer who are starting certain types of chemo that can cause these side effects.
This trial tests if cooling sleeves and gloves during chemotherapy can help prevent nerve damage (peripheral neuropathy) in people with gynecologic cancers. If you are receiving a common chemo drug called paclitaxel, this approach might reduce side effects like numbness or pain in your hands and feet.
This study tests whether wearing special compression and cooling gloves and socks can help prevent nerve damage (numbness and tingling in hands and feet) that sometimes occurs in women receiving a breast cancer medication called UTD1. You would wear these gloves and socks during and after your chemotherapy treatment.
This trial tests whether duloxetine, a medicine often used for nerve pain, can help people whose nerves have been damaged by a type of cancer treatment called an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). If you have had this side effect and it has not gone away, this study may offer a way to manage it.
This trial tests if wearing compression gloves and socks during chemotherapy can prevent nerve damage in hands and feet caused by taxane or oxaliplatin treatment. It may help patients avoid numbness, tingling, or pain.
