NCT05606068
Brief Summary:
The study conducted on cancer patients is designed to test safety and efficacy of limb hypothermia in cancer patients using the new Paxman Limb Cryocompression System (PLCS). Ultimately this will lead to the development of a therapy regime that will help to prevent chemotherapy-induced neuropathy in cancer patients.
Detailed Description:
The study will consist of 80 cancer patients, recruited from the National University Hospital and Curie Oncology. Based on an established optimal temperature and pressure of limb cryocompression, cancer patients will undergo cryocompression over multiple cycles of chemotherapy to establish safety and efficacy of repeated therapy. Cryocompression of the limbs will be administered using cooling wraps attached to a cooling device. The limbs will be cooled from the digits to the elbow/knee.
