Summary

Oxaliplatin-induced neuropathy is a major dose-limiting side effect in patients with colorectal cancer treated with the FOLFOX chemotherapy regimen. Hypersensitivity to cold is the sensory hallmark of oxaliplatin-induced neuropathy, and it can predict the development of long-term neuropathy. In this study, the investigators aim to determine whether intravenous lidocaine can prevent oxaliplatin-induced cold hypersensitivity.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Lidocaine Hydrochloride

Intravenous lidocaine will be dosed as a brief 1 mg/kg infusion (based on Ideal Body Weight (IBW)) over 10 minutes, followed by a 0.04 mg/kg/min infusion over additional 120 minutes, resulting in a total dose of 5.8 mg/kg IBW. If this dose is tolerable in four consecutive sessions of mFOLFOX6 in six or more of the eight patients in the tolerability phase, we will initiate the randomized efficacy pilot study.

DRUG

Placebo

Dextrose 5% in water will be administered as active comparator.

DRUG

FOLFOX regimen

Each cycle (repeated every 14 days): Oxaliplatin 85mg/m2 IV over 2h, Leucovorin 400 mg/m2 IV over 2h, 5-FU 400mg/m2 IV bolus, followed by a 1200mg/m2/day continuous infusion for 2 days.
