| Popis: | e23143 Background: Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common, long-term side effect of many antineoplastic agents and has a detrimental impact on patients (pts)’ quality of life and functional activities of daily living. Currently, preventive measures and treatment options for CIPN are quite limited. OnLife is a dietary supplement that contains a patented mixture of fatty acids with anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective and antinociceptive properties. Methods: The STEFANO study – an observational, prospective, two-cohort, multicenter study of dietary supplementation – was designed to evaluate the potential of OnLife to improve CIPN in adult pts with completed neo-/adjuvant chemotherapy and manifest CIPN (grade 1-3) (Cohort A: colon cancer, oxaliplatin-containing therapy; cohort B: breast cancer, paclitaxel therapy). Pts received OnLife for 3 months. The primary objective – assessment of changes in CIPN – was evaluated by comparing the severity of sensory and motor CIPN according to CTCAE v4.03 before, during and after treatment with OnLife. Secondary endpoints included patient-reported experience of symptoms and functional limitations related to CIPN. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze data. Results: In total, 75 breast cancer pts with paclitaxel-induced and 71 colon cancer pts with oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy, respectively, received OnLife. Based on physician-rated CTCAE grades, 21.3% of breast cancer pts and 12.7% of colon cancer pts had a sustained improvement of sensory CIPN after OnLife treatment. Concerning motor CIPN, the proportions were 12.0% and 9.9%, respectively. According to patient-reported outcomes, 45.3% of breast cancer pts and 23.9% of colon cancer pts had less symptoms and functional limitations related to sensory CIPN after OnLife treatment. Concerning motor CIPN, the proportions were 32.0% and 22.5%, respectively. Conclusions: STEFANO provides indications of the potential of OnLife to reduce severity of objective and subjective CIPN-related symptoms. Therefore, it is a promising agent to meet the unmet medical need of management options for patients with established CIPN. Clinical trial information: NCT03065478. |
