MC15C1 Randomized Scrambler Therapy vs TENS for the Treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Laboratory Biomarker Analysis, MC5-A Scrambler Therapy, and 2 other interventions for Pain and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 50 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This randomized clinical trial studies how well MC5-A scrambler therapy or transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) therapy work in treating patients with chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (a nerve problem that causes pain, numbness, tingling, swelling, or muscle weakness in different parts of the body). MC5-A scrambler therapy is a type of treatment for nerve pain that uses electrodes placed on the skin, where electricity is carried from the electrodes through the skin and blocks the pain. TENS is a procedure in which mild electric currents are applied to some areas of the skin. It is not yet known whether TENS therapy is more effective than MC5-A scrambler therapy in treating chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy.
