Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

No Intervention

Arm Label

Group A

Group B

Arm Description

Participants wear pressurized gloves and foot caps for 15 minutes before their chemotherapy treatment, during the treatment, and for 15 minutes after it ended.

No intervention was done before and after chemotherapy with paclitaxels.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Evaluation change in CTCAE 5.0 grade for CIPN (The most severe grade is the final grade)
The incidence of common adverse event evaluation criteria (CTCAE) 5.0 ≥ 2°CIPN after compression therapy with pressurized gloves and foot caps is used to objectively assess the peripheral neurotoxicity of chemotherapy. The grade of CTCAE 5.0 CIPN before treatment was the baseline (=0). We assess changes from baseline at 15 minutes after the end of each cycle, 3 and 6 months after the end of treatment. (The duration of chemotherapy varies according to the type of paclitaxel and the interval of each cycle of chemotherapy is 21 days). CIPN includes the symptoms of a sensory nerve and motor nerve injury. The symptoms are graded from 1 to 5, indicating none, mild, severe, life-threatening, and death. The higher the grade, the worse the neurotoxicity. The most severe grade is the final grade for each patient.

Secondary Outcome Measures

EORTC QLQ-CIPN20 score
The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Evaluation Scale of Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (EORTC QLQ-CIPN20) is a validated tool to objectively assess the peripheral neurotoxicity of chemotherapy. The evaluation was performed before treatment, 15 minutes after each cycle of chemotherapy, and 3 and 6 months after the end of treatment. This scale includes the symptoms of sensory nerve, motor nerve, and autonomic nerve injury and its impact on life. A total of 20 items are included. Each item is graded from 1 to 4, indicating none, occasionally, often, and very often. According to the patient's self-reported score, the higher the score, the worse the quality of life.
EORTC QLQ-C30 score
The European Organization for Cancer Research and Treatment QLQ-C30 (EORTC QLQ-C30): a quality of life instrument for use in international clinical trials in oncology. The evaluation was performed before treatment, 15 minutes after each cycle of chemotherapy, and 3 and 6 months after the end of treatment. A total of 30 items are included. Each item is graded from 1 to 4, except for items 29 and 30, indicating not at all, a little, quite a bit, and very much, with higher scores indicating poorer quality of life.
NRS score
The Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) scale is a validated tool to objectively assess the tolerance of participants for gloves and coats, with a minimum score of 0 and a maximum of 10. A score of 0 indicates complete tolerance, a score of 1-3 indicates mild intolerance, a score of 4-6 indicates moderate intolerance, and a score of 7-10 indicates severe intolerance.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This is a single-center, self-controlled, evaluator-blinded prospective study, which applies pressurized gloves and foot caps to prevent paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

6. Conditions and Keywords

Primary Disease or Condition Being Studied in the Trial, or the Focus of the Study
Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma, CIPN - Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy

Paclitaxel, Compression therapy

7. Study Design

Primary Purpose
Prevention
Study Phase
Not Applicable
Interventional Study Model
Parallel Assignment
Model Description
The Account and IWRS end of the clinical trial randomization system of Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center (SYSUCC) randomly determined the limb (left or right) of the participants to receive intervention, and the hand and foot on the same side were classified into the same group during the randomization process.
Masking
Outcomes Assessor
Masking Description
Evaluator blind design was adopted, and all evaluations were made after the participants had received the intervention and withdrawn the intervention. At this time, the blinded evaluator did not know the tribal groups, while both the participants and researchers knew the trial groups.
Allocation
Randomized
Enrollment
182 (Anticipated)
