Summary

The project is designed to study the use of localized hypothermia alone, or with compression to the limbs during chemotherapy infusion for the prevention of chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). As a pilot study, safety, tolerability and early clinical activity will be studied. The study will be conducted on healthy volunteers and cancer patients receiving taxane chemotherapy.

Conditions

  • Chemotherapy-induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN)

Interventions

DEVICE

Hypothermia

Healthy subjects will undergo 3 hours of hypothermia at various temperature levels.Cancer subjects will undergo 4 hours of hypothermia during every cycle of chemotherapy.

DEVICE

Cryocompression

Healthy subjects will undergo 3 hours of cryocompression. Cancer subjects will undergo a minimum duration of 2 hours and a maximum duration of up to 4 hours of cryocompression during every cycle of chemotherapy.
