Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy (TIPN) caused by albumin-bound paclitaxel is a dose-limiting toxicity. The main symptoms of discomfort are numbness, tingling, and burning sensations in the glove-sock-like distribution of the limbs. At present, there are few effective methods for clinical treatment of TIPN, and there is no widely agreed consensus on effective treatment in the world. Therefore, it is of great clinical significance and practical value to carry out clinical research to explore drugs to relieve TIPN.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: monosialic ganglioside

On the days -1, 1, and 2 of albumin-bound paclitaxel application, 80 mg of monosialic ganglioside were applied (monosialic ganglioside was a single infusion)

Drug: monosialic gangliosides
The experimental group received 80 mg of monosialic gangliosides (GM1) on days -1, 1, and 2 of albumin-bound paclitaxel(GM1 is a single infusion).

Placebo Comparator: Placebo

The control group received placebo on days -1, 1, and 2 of albumin-bound paclitaxel application, (placebo as a single infusion)

Other: Placebo
The control group received placebo on days -1, 1, and 2 of albumin-bound paclitaxel (placebo as a single infusion)

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. FACT-Ntx score [2 weeks after chemotherapy]

    The FACT-Ntx subscale includes 11 items, each of which is divided into 5 scoring levels: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and a total score of 44. Higher scores indicate lower side effects

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. CTCAE Version 4.0 score [During chemotherapy, and 2 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after chemotherapy]

    Peripheral sensory neuropathy, peripheral motor neuropathy, paresthesia, myalgia, arthralgia, and neuralgia were evaluated by the CTCAE 4.0 rating scale. Each item was divided into 5 levels: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Higher indicates higher neurotoxicity

  2. FACT-Taxane score [During chemotherapy, and 2 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after chemotherapy]

    The FACT-Taxane scale contains 16 items, each item is divided into 5 grades: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, with a total score of 64. The higher the score, the lower the side effects.

  3. FACT-G score [During chemotherapy, and 2 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after chemotherapy]

    The FACT-G Scale contains 27 items, each item is divided into 5 grades: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, with a total score of 108

  4. FACT-Ntx score [3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after chemotherapy]

    The FACT-Ntx subscale includes 11 items, each of which is divided into 5 scoring levels: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and a total score of 44. Higher scores indicate lower side effects
