RETRO Trial Summary

This trial will test if BXQ-350 can help cancer patients with chemotherapy-induced neuropathy by lessening symptoms and improving quality of life. The study is double-blinded, meaning neither the participants nor the researchers know who is receiving the experimental drug or the placebo.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for cancer patients aged 18 or older who have persistent symptoms of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) for at least 6 months after treatment with oxaliplatin or taxane. They should not have a history of genetic neuropathies, recent major surgery, cardiac issues, severe infections like HIV/Hepatitis B/C, active bleeding, diabetes, other clinical neuropathies or be on certain medications.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests BXQ-350's effect on reducing the intensity and duration of CIPN to improve quality of life. Participants will undergo two blinded treatment cycles with BXQ-350/placebo randomly assigned, an optional open-label period with BXQ-350 and follow-up without blinding to monitor long-term effects.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, participants may experience reactions related to the components in BXQ-350 (SapC and DOPS). Common drug-related side effects could include allergic reactions, gastrointestinal issues or changes in blood counts.
