Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate if memantine administered for four weeks starting two weeks before surgery induces a decrease in pain intensity at 3 months post-mastectomy.

Conditions

  • Neuropathic Pain

Interventions

DRUG

Memantine

Women provide written informed consent prior to their participation in the study, during their Anesthesiology visit. After baseline assessments (15 days before surgery: Day 0 - 15) of pain intensity, cognitive, quality of life and quality of sleep questionnaires, participants will be randomized in two parallel groups: "memantine" (n=75) or "usual care" (n=75). Memantine will be given orally for four weeks starting two weeks before surgery. Endpoints will be assessed 15 days (Day 0 + 15), 3 months (Day 0 + 3 months), 6 months (Day 0 + 6 months) et 12 months (Day 0 + 12 months) post-mastectomy. In order to maintain a good compliance and to verify that women do not develop adverse events, patients will be called once a week by phone. A booklet for monitoring will be completed daily by the patient for 3 months from the day of surgery.

OTHER

no memantine

Concerning the comparator group, patients will be followed in the same way as those in the "memantine" group except that they will not receive the study treatment
