Brief Summary: Part I:

Evaluating the increase in dermal blood flow upon topical application of cinnamaldehyde and capsaicin on the fingers in healthy, male volunteers. In addition, the inter-period and inter-hand reproducibility of the increase in dermal blood flow will be assessed.

Part II:

Evaluating the increase in dermal blood flow upon topical application of cinnamaldehyde and capsaicin on the fingers in patients suffering from chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy compared to matched healthy volunteers.

Part III:

Evaluating the increase in dermal blood flow upon topical application of cinnamaldehyde and capsaicin on the fingers in patients who are treated with paclitaxel or oxaliplatin.
Detailed Description: The primary aim is to investigate whether paclitaxel and/or oxaliplatin alter TRP channel functionality in vivo in human. TRP functionality can indirectly be assessed via dermal blood flow changes which are part of the so-called neurogenic inflammation, induced upon TRP activation. In vivo in human, TRP can be activated via topical application of cinnamaldehyde or capsaicin on the skin.

In Part I of the study, the DBF changes upon topical application of cinnamaldehyde or capsaicin on the fingers will be characterized, including inter-period and inter-hand reproducibility.

In Part II, patients who are suffering from chronic CIPN after treatment with paclitaxel or oxaliplatin are included. DBF changes upon cinnamaldehyde and capsaicin are compared to a matched control group.

In Part III, DBF changes are assessed in patients prior to the first administration of taxol/oxaliplatin and at regular points in time during the dosage regimen.
