Brief Summary: Chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy CIPN is a frequent and disabling complication of systemic chemotherapy particularly with oxaliplatin or taxanes The incidence of CIPN is variable but approximately 30-40 of patients treated with neurotoxic chemotherapy agents develop CIPN after long-term use of taxanes or oxaliplatin

This CIPN is essentially a sensory peripheral neuropathy with pain manifested by unpleasant symptoms such as numbness tingling and less frequently shootingburning pain These symptoms spread proximally to affect both lower and upper extremities in a characteristic stocking and glove distribution

Many symptoms of CIPN may resolve completely for some patients However CIPN is only partly reversible for most In the worst instances it does not appear to be reversible at all and can even increase over time

CIPN is difficult to manage Only duloxetine is recommended based on the positive result of a randomized phase III double-blind placebo-controlled crossover trial The use of duloxetine resulted in a greater reduction in pain and was effective in decreasing numbness and tingling in the feet But systemic antidepressants are often associated with toxicities and patients often refuse or abandon the treatment

Capsaicin inhibits neural transmission in sensory axons and has been proven as effective on the intensity of pain for post-herpetic neuralgia and human immunodeficiency virus-associated neuropathy Efficacy appears at one month and persists for at least 2 months

Only a few studies focused on the efficacy of capsaicin 179 mg patch on the intensity of CIPN-induced pain These non-randomized studies show that more than 50 of patients have a reduction in pain intensity of more than 30

Until now no clinical trial has compared the efficacy of the capsaicin 179 mg patch with duloxetine

Accordingly this open-label phase 3 randomized multicenter trial will compare efficacy and safety of capsaicin patch with oral duloxetine on painful CIPN persisting more than 3 months after the end of the responsible chemotherapy
