Brief Summary:
RATIONALE Glutamine may help lessen neuropathy caused by chemotherapy It is not yet known whether glutamine is more effective than a placebo in treating neuropathy caused by vincristine
PURPOSE This randomized phase II trial is studying glutamine to see how well it works compared to a placebo in treating neuropathy caused by vincristine in young patients with lymphoma leukemia or solid tumors
PURPOSE This randomized phase II trial is studying glutamine to see how well it works compared to a placebo in treating neuropathy caused by vincristine in young patients with lymphoma leukemia or solid tumors
Detailed Description:
OBJECTIVES
Primary
Determine the incidence of vincristine-induced peripheral neuropathy in pediatric patients with lymphoma leukemia or solid tumors
Secondary
Compare the safety of glutamine vs placebo in these patients
Compare the efficacy of glutamine vs placebo in reducing the progression andor resolution of vincristine-induced peripheral neuropathy in these patients
Compare the effect of glutamine supplementation vs placebo on chemotherapy-related toxicities in these patients
Compare the effect of glutamine vs placebo on measures of quality of life in these patients
Compare the effect of glutamine supplementation vs placebo on serum nerve growth factor and glutamine levels in these patients
Determine the effect of glutamine on vincristine-mediated antitumor efficacy in vitro
OUTLINE This is a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled pilot study Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms
Arm I Beginning 1 week after administration of vincristine chemotherapy patients receive oral glutamine twice daily on days 1-21
Arm II Beginning 1 week after administration of vincristine chemotherapy patients receive oral placebo twice daily on days 1-21
Patients in both arms undergo neuropsychological and clinical neurological assessment blood collection for serum marker eg serum glutamine and nerve growth factor analysis and quality of life assessment on days 1 21 and 42
After completion of study treatment patients are followed for an additional 21 days
PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 100 patients will be accrued for this study
