This trial tests whether wearing surgical gloves during paclitaxel chemotherapy can reduce nerve damage (neuropathy) in the hands. If it works, patients may experience less tingling, numbness, or pain in their hands.
This trial tests if wearing surgical gloves that compress the hands can prevent nerve damage caused by the chemotherapy drug paclitaxel. If you have a solid tumor and are getting paclitaxel every 3 weeks, this might help reduce numbness, tingling, or pain in your hands.
This study looks at ways to prevent numbness or nerve pain in the hands and feet that can happen from oxaliplatin treatment. It includes people with colon or rectal cancer who will be getting standard chemotherapy with capecitabine plus oxaliplatin.
This trial tests whether ketotifen can protect against nerve damage (called peripheral neuropathy) caused by oxaliplatin, a common chemotherapy used for stage III colon cancer. If it works, it may help reduce tingling, numbness, or burning pain in the hands and feet.
This trial tests whether wearing a simple surgical glove during chemotherapy can help reduce nerve damage (tingling or numbness in hands and feet) caused by the chemo drugs. If it works, it could make treatment easier to tolerate.
This study tests whether wearing tight surgical gloves during taxane chemotherapy can help reduce nerve damage in the hands and feet. It may be a good fit if you have breast or urogenital cancer and are starting taxane treatment for the first time.
