SENSE Trial Summary

This trial is testing whether early lower extremity CIPN symptoms can predict which cancer patients being treated with neurotoxic chemotherapy are at risk for falling.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 45 with a new cancer diagnosis, excluding primary brain tumors. Participants must be prescribed taxane or platinum-based chemotherapy and able to walk unassisted. They should speak English, manage their own transport, commit to thrice-weekly symptom tracking via an app on their smartphone for up to 9 months.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The SENSE Study tests if early symptoms of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) can predict fall risk in patients using mobile ecological momentary assessment (mEMA). The goal is to identify those at risk of falling early enough so they can get help and continue life-saving chemo.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this study focuses on monitoring symptoms rather than testing a drug, there are no direct side effects from interventions. However, participants may experience the discomfort of CIPN as part of their ongoing chemotherapy treatment.
